A comparative analysis of data from the 2015 stock market crash and the two phases of the COVID-19 pandemic reveals three key findings. First, market vulnerability exhibits significant heterogeneity during crises. During the 2015 stock market crash, industry network density declined, and centrality shifted from the financial sector to defensive industries. In contrast, during the pandemic, an information hub network emerged, with computers and non-banking financials at its core, highlighting the technology sector’s resource control capacity during crises. Second, the risk transmission path underwent a structural shift. Outward correlation analysis shows that the real estate industry chain benefited from counter-cyclical control policies following the stock market crash, while the influence of the electronics industry surged during the pandemic. Meanwhile, inward intensity analysis identifies the automobile industry as the largest risk recipient in both crises. Finally, network stability weakened significantly. Motif analysis comparing pre-crisis and during-crisis periods reveals that all five key triadic and quadratic structures declined by 38.5% and 49.6%, respectively, with feedback loop motifs experiencing the largest reduction. This confirms that major events amplify market vulnerability by weakening causal linkages. These findings provide new evidence on network dynamics, offering valuable insights into the domino effect of extreme events in capital markets.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48226,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Financial Analysis","volume":"107 ","pages":"Article 104572"},"PeriodicalIF":9.8,"publicationDate":"2025-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145057393","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet, with some notable exceptions, analytical focus rarely lands on domestic space. This article engages with the domestic geographies of creative work in the city to explore the growing centrality of home both as a locus for this work and as material–affective infrastructure sustaining creative production. Drawing on longitudinal research with musicians in Sydney, Australia, we use the lens of creative practitioners’ experience through COVID-19 – wherein home and neighbourhood were necessarily centred – to unpack the intensification of home’s importance to creative work. The article explores how home, understood relationally as encompassing home–neighbourhood, plays a pivotal role as an informal, low-risk and supportive creative production space. Relational spaces of home – enrolling kitchens, bedrooms, home studios and gardens, as well as nearby local venues and scenes in the self-reinforcing affects of creative collaboration and performance – provide vital material–affective infrastructure for the process of collaborative creativity. Participants revealed the geographies of ‘creative homes in creative neighbourhoods’ fashioned via the self-intensifying affects of levity, appreciation and sociality, enabling and supporting ongoing creation. Home–neighbourhoods were central to worlds of creative work, intensified by COVID-19’s tempering effect alongside digitalisation, assetification and financialisation. Foregrounding the intertwining of neoliberal urbanism, housing (in)security and creative work, we conceptualise home–neighbourhood in relation to the emerging geographies of hybrid and home-supported work, with key implications for urban cultural and housing policy.","PeriodicalId":51350,"journal":{"name":"Urban Studies","volume":"24 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145072514","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

New processes of urbanization are marked by steep declines in agricultural jobs, the restructuring of local economies, changing livelihoods, and the emergence of new forms of permanent circular labor migration. Our research suggests that this transformation has important social ramifications for household dynamics and class structures. We conducted a comprehensive geospatial analysis across 600,000 villages to illuminate the extensive spatial patterns of this transformation. Additionally, we collected primary data from two case-study sites in Bihar and West Bengal. Our findings indicate trends toward smaller household sizes and increased complexity in extended family organization, shifting the roles of women within households, and either a continuation (and possibly deepening) of class disparities or an upending of existing class structures. These observations deviate markedly from what is postulated in conventional Western urban theory, and they may be relevant to the urbanizing experiences of other parts of the Global South. In India alone, this transformation is affecting the livelihoods and well-being of hundreds of millions of people.","PeriodicalId":51350,"journal":{"name":"Urban Studies","volume":"82 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145072518","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

But what drives the desire to fund positive change remains unclear. To address this, we explored literature on the socio-psychological drivers of public citizen and private landholder biodiversity restoration and payment preferences. Our investigations reveal that interactions between environmental, economic and socio-psychological factors influence individual biodiversity restoration and payment preferences. Consequently, literature search terms were expanded to behavioural economic studies to better inform future ecosystem service policy interventions. By synthesizing the two sets of evidence we theorise a framework that can be used to examine how stimulus packages, socio-psychological, economic, and socio-demographic factors interplay with cognitive processes to form public citizen and private landholder preferences. The framework aims to help policy makers and practitioners understand the drivers and mechanisms of preference formation and potentially increase funding, which is a key step towards designing appropriate interventions for increased contribution to sustained biodiversity restoration efforts.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51021,"journal":{"name":"Ecological Economics","volume":"239 ","pages":"Article 108793"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2025-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145048373","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the dynamics between household factors and rental burden have not been thoroughly explored, and it remains unclear which factors most significantly affect rental burden, particularly among those experiencing disproportionately high burdens. This study employs a multi-level model using a census sample dataset (<em>n</em> = 20047) and geospatial data from Hong Kong to explore the effects of workplace location, neighbourhood and housing environment on rental burden. The analysis compares these effects across households with varying levels of rental burden. This study reveals that workplace location, housing features, and neighbourhood environments have differentiated impacts on rental burdens among households in a high-rent, dense urban context. The results uncover a novel positive association between remote working and rental burden among high-burden households—contrasting with a negative association for their lower-burden counterparts—highlighting an emerging dynamic in housing affordability shaped by evolving remote work patterns. Additionally, the findings show that high-burden households lack flexibility to accommodate additional dependents, exposing a “housing squeeze” that constrains family formation and intergenerational care. Mobility and connectivity are found to be vital for households under financial strain, suggesting that investments in transportation infrastructure could help mitigate some affordability pressures by broadening access to jobs and services.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48376,"journal":{"name":"Habitat International","volume":"166 ","pages":"Article 103576"},"PeriodicalIF":7.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145050010","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While prior research has addressed inequality, this paper contributes to the limited literature on poverty effects of carbon taxation, specifically for transport fuels. Transportation is currently the UK's highest-emitting sector and has made the least progress in reducing emissions. As a result, the UK government's Transport Decarbonisation Plan (TDP) sets the goal of achieving net zero emissions in the sector by 2050, making carbon pricing a central policy instrument. Yet, the policy raises concerns about regressive effects. Therefore, this paper analyzes the poverty effects of a carbon tax on transport fuels in the UK using household-level data. The analysis applies variants of a lump-sum refund, and based on the resulting income distributions, different poverty measures are computed. The paper advances standard poverty measurement methods using axiomatic analysis and does not rely on representative households. The inclusion of direct and indirect price effects—capturing price changes for the taxed good as well as for other goods where it serves as an intermediate input—through input–output analysis further aids a comprehensive assessment of overall distributional effects. I find that, contrary to popular belief, a higher lump-sum refund for disproportionately burdened rural households does not improve poverty levels significantly compared to a uniform refund. Yet, a dual-aspect lump-sum refund considering both rural–urban status and lower income brackets leads to lower poverty levels compared to the baseline scenario without a tax.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51021,"journal":{"name":"Ecological Economics","volume":"239 ","pages":"Article 108788"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2025-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145048372","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Contrary to simplistic views that regard housing price hikes as merely detrimental, this study posits that they function as a double-edged sword, potentially enhancing urban innovation and thereby shaping FIE location decisions. By conducting empirical analysis based on panel data from 2000 to 2022 and a series of robustness checks, I find that a 1 % increase in housing prices leads to a 1.6 % increase in FIE inflows. Notably, there exist heterogeneities: technology- and capital-intensive FIEs exhibit positive elasticity to housing price growth, whereas labor-intensive FIEs show negative elasticity. These divergent effects become increasingly pronounced as cities’ development levels rise. To unravel the transmission mechanisms, my channel analysis reveals that rising housing prices drive urban innovation through spatial sorting of talent and innovative enterprises. This, in turn, serves as a magnet for FIEs. Specifically, in developed cities, this dynamic attracts technology- and capital-intensive FIEs, while simultaneously displacing labor-intensive FIEs to less developed regions. I also offer practical policy thresholds through threshold regression. Less developed cities aiming to attract labor-intensive FIEs should maintain housing prices below 7197 CNY/m<sup>2</sup>. Conversely, developed cities seeking to draw technology- and capital-intensive FIEs can optimize innovation-related benefits when prices reach 18,674 CNY/m<sup>2</sup>.

The findings confirm that AI significantly enhances energy transition performance in urban settings. By precisely optimizing the integration and consumption of renewable energy, driving the energy efficiency revolution, and breaking the dependence on high-carbon energy development models, as well as enhancing grid resilience and ensuring energy supply security to overcome the vulnerabilities of the energy transition, AI also strengthens the innovation capacity of energy transition through accelerating technological breakthroughs and incubating new business models. Heterogeneity analysis reveals that AI better facilitates energy transition in those cities that are small and medium in size, cities with a solid industrial base, cities with a high level of economic clustering, and cities located in central and eastern China. Mechanism tests show that during AI-enabled transition processes, green technology innovation, human–machine compatibility, and energy efficiency play significant roles. Further analysis using a threshold model reveals that as electronic commerce, human capital, and business growth increase, AI's marginal effects on energy transition exhibit an incremental trend. This implies that improving digital infrastructure, raising human capital levels, and boosting economic growth are pathways to realizing the transformative effects of AI.
