The inverse probability weighted regression adjustment and Tobit models combined with the Lewbel approach help address the selection bias issues and estimate data of 334,229 households collected by the National Economics Survey in Indonesia. The results show that Internet use significantly reduces household healthy food consumption, and the effect on rural households is larger than that on urban households. Internet use diversity, measured by the number of Internet activities and services people access, also significantly reduces healthy food consumption. The disaggregated analyses reveal that with incomes increasing from low (quartile 1) to high (quartile 4), the impacts of Internet use on healthy food consumption for urban households become positive at quartile 2 and the effects increase monotonously.

Our relatively robust results show that mining activity harms positioning in the global value chain through specialisation towards start-of-the-chain industries.

Empirically, I exploit the post-World War II division of Germany into two states, one of which became a liberal democracy and the other a Soviet-style autocracy, in a geographic regression discontinuity design. I show that districts from the former East have lower climate policy equilibrium levels, which means that more climate-ambitious political parties are less likely to receive strong electoral support. Crucially, these effects are independent of East Germans' preferences over other political conflicts, suggesting that authoritarian rule had a direct and persistent effect on environmental attitudes. Moreover, I show that the authoritarian legacy also manifests itself in increased polarisation over climate change policies, which, combined with lower demand for such measures, makes the former East Germany a breeding ground for climate-sceptical political parties.</p>","PeriodicalId":40265,"journal":{"name":"Economics of Transition and Institutional Change","volume":"33 3","pages":"719-739"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/ecot.12446","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144244121","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using this model, we quantify the role of structural change in the evolution of wealth inequality in Poland as of 1990.
