Results show that: (1) the scale effect is unambiguously positive; (2) the composition effect varies with the decomposition dimension; (3) the substitution effect, which reflects value-added share change, varies with both decomposition dimension and study period; and (4) the technique effect (the combined effect of energy intensity and pollution energy consumption share changes) is consistently negative. In view of future uncertainties, it is only by consolidating the technique effect that total SO₂ emission can be reduced effectively. These results on the channels affecting SO₂ emission can be used as a reference in the design of policies to effectively reduce SO₂ emissions from the manufacturing industry.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47829,"journal":{"name":"Structural Change and Economic Dynamics","volume":"76 ","pages":"Pages 183-194"},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2026-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145790696","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}

In this paper we investigate whether a similar relationship holds between national income per capita and inequality of opportunity: the inequality associated with inherited individual circumstances such as gender, ethnicity, and family background. As, empirically, inequality of opportunity is positively correlated with income inequality (a relationship known as the ‘Great Gatsby’ curve), the relationship between inequality of opportunity and ‘development’ is expected to display the same inverted-U shape. We suggest that the existence of a Kuznets inequality of opportunity curve can be the result of a ‘triangular’ relationship between development, income inequality, and inequality of opportunity.

Employing a growth accounting approach, we decompose environmentally adjusted grain output growth into the contributions of labor, productive capital, and natural resource capital. This comprehensive indicator system provides a more nuanced understanding of the drivers of grain output growth while evaluating its long-term sustainability. Using panel data from 31 Chinese provinces from 2000 to 2021, the analysis integrates pollution emissions associated with grain production. The findings reveal a gradual decline in the dependence on agricultural chemicals, indicating a structural shift from traditional factor inputs toward green total factor productivity (GTFP) as the main engine of growth. Industry structural, human capital, and income level are shown to influence to the GTFP growth, suggesting that social and institutional factors play a key role in shaping GTFP trajectories. Significant regional heterogeneity is observed in both the contributions of production factors and their decomposition characteristics. In eastern regions such as Beijing, Tianjin, and Shanghai, the annual average growth in grain output is primarily driven by GTFP improvements. Labor input contributes significantly to more developed regions including Beijing, Shanghai, Zhejiang, Fujian, and Chongqing. Conversely, productive capital input plays a greater role in the central, western, and northeastern regions, with natural resource capital makes relatively higher contributions in the northeastern provinces.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47829,"journal":{"name":"Structural Change and Economic Dynamics","volume":"76 ","pages":"Pages 80-93"},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2026-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145691790","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}

This research combines multilayer network theory methods with advanced statistical and econometric procedures, including dynamic multilayer network analysis methods, (bi)clustering, and causal analyses to evaluate the temporal nature of structural, sectorial and country-level indicators. The primary objective of this study is to identify causal patterns in multilayer trade network structures and reveal the roles of specific countries and industries as drivers of changes in global trade dynamics. Using the proposed methods, we define causal graphs between the structural indicators of the multilayer network. The resulting causal graph is organized into groups using modularity analysis, and the relationships are biclustered, thereby determining which structural factors/industries/countries affect other country groups/industries and revealing the dynamics of structural changes. We determine which factors change simultaneously and which factors and actors exhibit a delay between their changes. The analysis reveals significant shifts in structural indicators, highlighting the evolving roles of major players like China and the US. The findings indicate that the structural indicators of trade networks/industries/countries often move in unison, with changes in one country/industry potentially triggering rapid transformations across the entire network. This study also uncovers the cascading effects of economic disruptions on trade patterns, emphasizing the interconnectedness of countries and industries in the face of global economic changes. These insights are crucial for policymakers and business leaders, underscoring the need for adaptive strategies to enhance the level of resilience of countries and industries to persistent global economic fluctuations and crises.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47829,"journal":{"name":"Structural Change and Economic Dynamics","volume":"76 ","pages":"Pages 209-236"},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2026-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145790694","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}
