We find that economic agglomeration can improve the product quality of Chinese enterprises. We further show that in the context of deepening trade liberalization, economic agglomeration leads enterprises to import more various intermediate products, thus helping to upgrade the quality of final products. The increase in the proportion of intermediate products imported from high-income countries will strengthen the role of economic agglomeration in upgrading the quality of products.","PeriodicalId":45444,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chinese Economic and Business Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44664256","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 dual goals of carbon emission include those of a carbon peak and carbon neutrality, which are necessary for realizing new development patterns and promoting high-quality development in China. This study is focused on the innovation mechanism as applied to the dual goals of carbon emission, and two issues are considered – the overall carbon peak and carbon neutrality situation from resource tax and power reform perspective and the construction of a long-term mechanism to address environmental threats, such as smog. The continuous use of endogenous mechanisms to regulate the production and consumption behaviors of enterprises and people, as well as the means by which China may fully use its economic power to promote green, low-carbon, sustainable development are emphasized and analyzed.","PeriodicalId":45444,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chinese Economic and Business Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45127609","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}

It traces the transformation of Chinese economic engagements with Africa since the early independence era. Most Chinese investments were established in the past decade, except for a few aid-driven investments created in the 1970s and those made by the first wave of Chinese expatriate entrepreneurs to East Africa in the 1990s. These recent investments have concentrated in construction-related industries, export-oriented garments industry, plastic recycling and reprocessing, and agro-business. In terms of technology transfer, there are local training efforts and signs for intra-industry spillovers. Large-scale Chinese investments or development projects have established formal training programs with explicit localization targets and are more likely to collaborate with government agencies or vocational training institutes. Moreover, horizontal and vertical spillovers have also taken the form of the development of sub-contracting, local supply, distribution networks, and imitation by local firms. Nevertheless, those industry-level spillovers are less systematic due to the limitations of local investors’ financial and technological capacity.","PeriodicalId":45444,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chinese Economic and Business Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47786979","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}

Our results are robust in supporting the hypothesis, even after we address for reverse causality issue.

The third was represented by the introduction of science and social beliefs from the West (from 1840 onwards).

We applied a panel corrected standard error (PCSE) econometric procedure for a selected 21 sub-Saharan African countries. Our results show that energy consumption promotes economic growth. Similarly, the study revealed that the institutional quality and Chinese investment in Africa were the underlying factors for the positive effect of energy consumption and economic growth.

It is about the rebirth and growth of Asia towards the position of equivalence in the world economy, it once held in the historic past, but dwindled to insignificance by the middle of the twentieth century. In the year 1500, Asia accounted for 62% of both world income and population. But by the year 1820, though it had restored its share of population to 65%, its share in world income had declined to 56.5%, with India and China together accounting for almost 46% of the total. The decline in Asia’s share of world GDP continued unabated and reached a low of 14.9% by the year 1962 with a significant contribution by China and India to this decline. It is the revival of Asia from this state of the doldrums to one of the dramatic growth and development from 1970s onwards, which is aptly referred to by Deepak Nayyar as a resurgence of the Asian economies. The growth and development experience of each of the Asian countries discussed in the book differs significantly from that of the others as the subtitle of Nayyar’s book suggests. Deepak Nayyar has many strings to his bow: an eminent economist, a prolific writer, an administrator in academia and government, and an advisor to international institutions. His wide range of expertise and knowledge of economic development is reflected in his discussion of the decline and rise of Asia that collates many sides to the story. The analysis in the book is unique. It is grounded in economic theory and history and is not confined to a chronological narration of events or regression analysis-oriented conclusions. It complements other incisive reviews of the recent growth and development experience of the two large Asian economies; China – edited and authored by David, Chris, and Shujie (2010) and India = edited and authored by Rakesh (2018). This review discusses the main issues in Nayyar’s wide-ranging analysis of the growth and development of 14 major Asian economies.","PeriodicalId":45444,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chinese Economic and Business Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/14765284.2021.1953352","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42366755","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}

We adopt CCK model-based OLS and quantile regression to examine herding in each observed period and employ HS model to measure the magnitude of herding during the time. The empirical results indicate the emergence of mild herding from August 2019 to January 2020, and the herding phenomenon is generally weakened between February and July 2020. Our study confirms the implication of the systematic herding detection mechanism that can improve the sensitivity of detection and capture the magnitude and variation of herding.","PeriodicalId":45444,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chinese Economic and Business Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/14765284.2021.1948320","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48485709","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}

This study establishes the purpose of these centres in Kenya and Nigeria and presents original data on their success based on their objectives. Fieldwork was conducted in 2018 and follow-up interviews continued by phone until 2021. I find that Huawe’s investments offer no significant opportunities for knowledge transfers that could foster technological or industrial upgrading in Kenya or Nigeria’s telecommunications sectors. In part, this is due to domestic obstacles in the host countries. But, like other international equipment vendors operating in the region, knowledge transfers are also hindered by the limited scope of Huawei’s investments and the boundaries on the knowledge it is willing to share with domestic employees. I conclude that Kenya and Nigeria’s governments may underestimate the leverage they have over international equipment vendors to induce more meaningful opportunities for knowledge transfer.","PeriodicalId":45444,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chinese Economic and Business Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/14765284.2021.1943194","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45084641","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}
