Based on the triple-bottom-line theory and a dynamic coupling framework, this study systematically examines the staged evolutionary effects of smart governance on sustainable development and regional heterogeneity. Our hybrid research framework applies entropy-weighted comprehensive evaluation, feasible generalized least squares, and instrumental variable approaches to multi-source authoritative data from 159 countries spanning the period from 2003 to 2020. First, the results indicate that smart governance’s promoting effect increases with maturity. Second, the data reveal staged impacts. In the initial stage, hybrid governance drives economic growth, while in the middle stage, collaborative governance enhances institutional efficiency. In the long term, network governance reinforces climate action, while social equity remains inadequately addressed. Third, significant regional heterogeneity exists. Finally, mechanistically, smart governance operates through optimized business environments, improved institutional quality, and reduced climate vulnerability. However, its negative association with social trust highlights increased digital divide risks. This research provides dual perspectives on stage-specific adaptation and regional coordination for differentiated governance strategies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47829,"journal":{"name":"Structural Change and Economic Dynamics","volume":"77 ","pages":"Pages 43-61"},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145940380","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The qualitative approach examines the objectives, methodologies and policy proposals of 33 selected articles.

We find that platform adoption reduces city-level factor misallocation by roughly 23 percent relative to the pre-reform mean. The results are robust across specifications and to addressing endogeneity concerns. Further, results from the mechanism analysis indicate that platform adoption reduces misallocation via market-competition channels, including greater firm entry, deeper venture capital investment, and larger international trade volumes. Moreover, the impact is stronger in cities with less administrative fragmentation, greater dialect diversity, or more rugged terrain. Finally, spatial-econometric models indicate positive spillovers to neighboring cities, suggesting cross-city diffusion of information and practices. Overall, the findings suggest that public data platform acts as a low-distortion policy tool to improve urban factor allocation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47829,"journal":{"name":"Structural Change and Economic Dynamics","volume":"77 ","pages":"Pages 110-122"},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145978376","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By introducing the concept of third countries, this study extends the decomposition framework of MNEs’ carbon emissions using an input-output model. This framework allows us to trace the flows of MNEs’ carbon emissions among host, home, and third countries, thereby depicting a more detailed network of MNEs’ emissions within global value chains. Our findings reveal that 25.9% of MNEs’ carbon emissions were exported to satisfy third countries’ final demand from 2000 to 2019. At the national and sectoral levels, great variation in the third-country effects exists. Countries with large domestic markets, such as the United States, China, and Japan, generally exhibit relatively smaller third-country effects. In contrast, small open economies like Singapore demonstrate much higher third-country effects, reaching 68.5%. Factors such as regional economic integration and weaker environmental regulations in host countries may also drive the growth of third-country effects. Further analysis indicates that under trade policy uncertainty, FDI relocation and subsequent exports to third countries would increase the global mitigation burden. Our study provides important insights for MNEs, host countries and policymakers to effectively mitigate MNE-related carbon emissions within global value chains.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47829,"journal":{"name":"Structural Change and Economic Dynamics","volume":"77 ","pages":"Pages 345-356"},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146187931","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
