Two groups of women are compared: Those who did, and those who did not, return to work after having to leave because of the marriage bar.

Utilizing a quasi-natural experiment from the implementation of “Broadband China,” the study explores the role of Internet construction in propelling the green production of urban regions in China. Its consequences illuminate that Internet construction could significantly elevate the green transformation of urban development. Furthermore, this advancement is facilitated via mechanisms of green technological innovation, optimized industrial structure, as well as economic agglomeration contributed by the well-established Internet construction in cities. Notably, the study discerns variations in the Internet's influence on the green advancement level within urban areas based on the geographic location, resource endowment, market construction, and the degree of government intervention in each city.

Our sample of French SMEs from Community Innovation Survey (CIS 2008) strongly supports the mechanism of trial-and-error of exporting and the crucial role of different types of innovation in labor productivity without upholding the mechanism of self-selection. However, productivity favors occasional entry, suggesting a potential new and more complete SMEs export entry mechanism. Furthermore, we show evidence of the simultaneous existence of accelerated and gradual export entry. The results are confirmed using a second sample of Normandy SMEs from the interdisciplinary project on enterprise development, innovation, and strategy (IDEIS) project that provides highly pertinent information on SMEs’ innovation and export activities.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":46233,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of Economic Research","volume":"77 3","pages":"385-397"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2025-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144550916","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Heterogeneity tests demonstrate that infrastructure investment has a more pronounced marginal effect on the consumption gap in central and western regions compared with eastern and northeastern areas.
