In the course of this analysis, by performing a rolling regression, we confirm the evidence of a subdued impact of exchange rates on exports. We also investigate the effects of exchange rate volatility on exports for Armenia, where exchange rate risk is not generally hedged by exporting firms. Though dozens of studies have examined the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on international trade, the influence of exchange rate volatility is still ambiguous from empirical point of view. Our estimations indicate that short-term exchange rate volatility has no impact on exports. Finally, we study the dynamics of the prolonged overvaluation of exchange rates observed in the economy of Armenia since the early 2000s, which caused a continual deterioration in its external competitiveness. Using the instrumental variable–generalized method of moments (IV-GMM) framework, we estimate a two-stage model for the real effective exchange rate (REER) with endogenous remittances and find evidence of the Dutch disease in Armenia.","PeriodicalId":35933,"journal":{"name":"INTERNATIONAL ECONOMIC JOURNAL","volume":"34 1","pages":"493 - 509"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2020-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10168737.2020.1750045","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41744166","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study draws attention to the quantitative aspects of education showing how employees with different stages (primary, secondary, and tertiary) of education contribute to labour productivity and technological developments in the country. Besides, it also attaches great significance to the qualitative aspects of education which have been largely ignored in the literature. Using the autoregressive distributed lag co-integration technique, the study finds statistically significant short- and long-run impacts running from fractions of employees with maximum secondary and tertiary education qualifications to output growth. It reveals that tertiary education has three-fold long-run impact on economic growth compared to secondary education. The study documents significant long-run impacts of PISA, students per classroom, and students per teacher on economic growth; however, they fail to generate statistically significant impacts on economic growth in the short-run. Thus, the study concludes that intangible values of education can take a longer time to generate tangible outcomes on the economy and the model converges to its long-run equilibrium at a speed of 12%.","PeriodicalId":35933,"journal":{"name":"INTERNATIONAL ECONOMIC JOURNAL","volume":"34 1","pages":"347 - 369"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2020-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10168737.2019.1689284","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43029173","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

(2018). Specifically, we explain how countries that are less frictional in terms of skill transfer attract more high-skilled international migrants. The analysis, which is based on asymmetric skill transferability among countries that can be divided into two groups – those with smooth skill transferability for migrants and those with less smooth skill transferability – finds that countries with smooth skill transferability are more likely to be the industrial core attracting all skilled workers. We also find that lower frictional migration costs from a country with less smooth skill transferability to a country with smooth skill transferability always accelerates industrial agglomeration in the smooth skill transferability core country, while lower frictional migration costs between smooth skill transferability countries does not necessarily accelerate industrial agglomeration in a country with smooth skill transferability due to market crowding effects.","PeriodicalId":35933,"journal":{"name":"INTERNATIONAL ECONOMIC JOURNAL","volume":"34 1","pages":"202 - 237"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2020-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10168737.2020.1747100","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44606556","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The variations in the TFP level for each country are explained by the changes in both the domestic and foreign R&D capital. Total domestic R&D capital is divided into three sectors, namely business, public and higher education. This specification allows to explore the role of certain variables in the long-run evolution of TFP in Eurozone countries. The results indicate that all variables of R&D capital have a positive contribution to TFP. Foreign R&D capital appears to have higher contribution to the TFP level than domestic R&D capital in all estimations and specifications. The impact of higher education R&D capital is larger than that of the business and public. The estimations are related to the productivity slowdown, especially over the period of economic crisis, and the high degree of differences in income per capita and productivity levels among the Eurozone member states. The results point to the need for policy actions to increase the available domestic R&D capital in all countries and improve the technology diffusion among them within the Eurozone.","PeriodicalId":35933,"journal":{"name":"INTERNATIONAL ECONOMIC JOURNAL","volume":"34 1","pages":"258 - 278"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2020-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10168737.2020.1734645","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41485185","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The fixed exchange rate regime was found to hamper FDI flow in the zone, while intermediate policy had a significantly positive effect in facilitating FDI flow during periods of declining foreign reserves and narrowing current account balance in WAMZ. This implies that the transmission of the effect of exchange rate regimes on FDI inflows depends on the positions of the foreign reserves and current account balance in the zone. The study therefore recommends the need for monetary authorities to be cautious in managing their exchange rates especially in periods of depleting foreign reserves and narrowing current account so as not to deter the much needed FDI inflow.","PeriodicalId":35933,"journal":{"name":"INTERNATIONAL ECONOMIC JOURNAL","volume":"34 1","pages":"85 - 99"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2020-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10168737.2019.1669689","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45808670","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition, we check the effect of the gender wage differential on the current dilemma by implementing Alkire et al.’s [2013.The women’s empowerment in agriculture index (Working Paper No. 58).

Our results show that 34.91% of women are empowered in Punjab overall, with independence being the highest dimensional contributor, and ownership of assets being the least. Women are 31.43% more empowered in urban regions. The results indicate that Islamabad has significantly more women’s empowerment, while Dera Ghazi Khan has the lowest percentage of empowered women. To assess particular impacts of different socio-economic and demographic variables on women’s empowerment, logistic regression model is applied, revealing that most socio-economic and demographic variables have significant impacts on the current scenario, and variation in any variable causes significant variations in the status of women’s empowerment, with increased wage differential in particular, decreasing the probability of women being empowered.","PeriodicalId":35933,"journal":{"name":"INTERNATIONAL ECONOMIC JOURNAL","volume":"34 1","pages":"144 - 168"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2020-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10168737.2019.1677742","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42742577","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
