Mukhopadhyay","doi":"10.1111/RURD.12032","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1111/RURD.12032","url":null,"abstract":"type=\"main\" xml:lang=\"en\"> The paper seeks to provide a theoretical foundation to the diverse empirical findings with regard to the role of liberalization in perpetuating gender inequality in the labor market. It studies the role of female labor supply decisions on gender wage inequality by considering the interrelation between liberalized policies, gender wage inequality, and female labor force participation. A three–sector Harris-Todaro general equilibrium model has been developed to examine the effects of liberalized trade, investment, and labor market policies on the gender wage gap and female labor force participation. There are two underlying assumptions: first, women are paid less because they are employed in the informal sectors; even within the informal sector, they are engaged in particularly low paying activities because of gender segregation. Second, female labor supply decisions or female labor force participation is endogenous, and depends on male and female wages, and the unemployment of male workers. The comparative static analysis indicates that while a reduction in import tariff may narrow the gender wage gap and raise female workforce participation, foreign capital inflow and labor market deregulation may aggravate gender wage inequality and lower female labor force participation.","PeriodicalId":39676,"journal":{"name":"Review of Urban and Regional Development Studies","volume":"24 1","pages":"68-87"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/RURD.12032","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"63727207","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}

{"title":"THE COMPETITIVENESS OF INDONESIAN WOOD‐BASED PRODUCTS","authors":"Jinhwan Oh, Siswadi, Jihee Kim","doi":"10.1111/RURD.12030","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1111/RURD.12030","url":null,"abstract":"type=\"main\" xml:lang=\"en\"> This paper analyzes the competitiveness of Indonesian wood-based products using revealed symmetric comparative advantage (RSCA), Spearman rank correlation (SRC), product mapping, and constant market share (CMS) analyses. RSCA results show that Indonesia had a comparative advantage in wood-based products, especially in Standard International Trade Classification (SITC) 245, 248, 251, 634, 635, 641, and 821. SRC results find that Indonesian wood-based products do not show a structural shift in comparative advantage during 1991–2010 while product mapping places Indonesia in group A (comparative advantage and a net exporter) in SITC 245, 634, and 635. CMS reveals that the increase in wood-based product export was caused by an increase in world exports, and commodity and market distribution effects. This study examines Indonesia's log export ban policies, which have been inconsistently implemented for the past several decades and adversely affect the country's global competitiveness, and recommends that Jakarta eliminate these policies and impose an appropriate export tax rate on logs.","PeriodicalId":39676,"journal":{"name":"Review of Urban and Regional Development Studies","volume":"27 1","pages":"40-67"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/RURD.12030","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"63727189","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}

At the same time, trans-boundary air pollution has become a major environmental problem, meriting increased attention in environmental economics literature. This study considers these problems in the context of environmental taxes and tariffs (or customs duties on imports), assuming quadratic environmental damage. We compare the environmental tax rate with and without a tariff and demonstrate that the former is lower than the latter. We then compare the level of social welfare with and without a tariff and demonstrate that when the degree of trans-boundary air pollution is low (high), welfare without the tariff is higher (lower) than with it. Thus, a tariff is not always necessary from the viewpoint of social welfare.","PeriodicalId":39676,"journal":{"name":"Review of Urban and Regional Development Studies","volume":"26 1","pages":"174-188"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/RURD.12027","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"63727067","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}

Hence, through the definition of the types of areas that enhance their localness, the determination of the spatial pattern and the causes of these changes could be better investigated. According to the results of the research, a growing localness in all groups of prefectures during the period 2000–2009 has emerged. Localness seems high in a group with the highest population and largest urban concentrations, enhancing their ability to be largely self-powered locally. Localness is high in the smallest group too, which is characterized by the pattern of integrated spatial development. Thus, without underestimating the importance of exports and imports, it makes more sense to look at localness and extroversion together in order to achieve greater development.","PeriodicalId":39676,"journal":{"name":"Review of Urban and Regional Development Studies","volume":"26 1","pages":"189-202"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/RURD.12028","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"63727096","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 paper presents a case study of Spain based on a Social Accounting Matrix with a highly disaggregated agricultural account for the year 2000. The analysis of multipliers allows identifying backward and forward linkages, key sectors, and employment multipliers of the Spanish agri-food and other bio-based accounts. This analysis helps us to better understand the extended agri-food account's economic linkages. No primary agricultural account emerges as key for the Spanish economy, while the production of (renewable) energy appears the only key sector related to agri-food and other bio-based accounts. Livestock and related bio-based products present the highest backward linkages, that is, they have significant diffusion effects of activity to the whole economy.","PeriodicalId":39676,"journal":{"name":"Review of Urban and Regional Development Studies","volume":"26 1","pages":"112-134"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/RURD.12022","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"63726760","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}

If fixed costs are incurred in FDI, trade liberalization induces a gradual overseas production by MNFs. When an unemployment problem exists in the home country, firms tend to undertake FDI at a lower level of trade liberalization, compared to the socially desirable level. As a result of the presence of a foreign rival firm, FDI by a home firm benefits the home country given that another home firm chooses foreign production. On the other hand, because of the negative effect of unemployment on social welfare, FDI by a home firm hurts the home country given that another home firm chooses domestic production. Hence, the government of the FDI source country might use subsidy-tax policies in order to induce the MNFs to choose a socially desirable production location.","PeriodicalId":39676,"journal":{"name":"Review of Urban and Regional Development Studies","volume":"26 1","pages":"2-19"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/RURD.12016","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"63727044","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}
