During recessions, many firms will find themselves in this predicament. Any subsequent recovery may be weakened if large numbers of such firms are still clinging on, possibly by meeting interest payments through further borrowing – perhaps combined with slashing their investments in training and R&D. In ‘Not all zombies are created equal. A Marxist-Minskyan taxonomy of firms: United States, 1950-2019’, Nicolás Águila & Juan M. Graña develop a taxonomy of firms that is more sophisticated than just ‘zombie’ or ‘non-zombie’ (according to the above description of being able to meet interest payments out of current profits). They look also at firms’ actual levels of profitability, and at leverage ratios. Their aim is to look beyond the financial characteristic – of being able to meet interest from profits – to consider productive characteristics as well. Their main finding is that the principal problem of U.S. firms is productive, not financial – as there is a high share of firms with increasingly negative profitability even before the payment of interest and despite having relatively low leverage. In other words, even taking the financial issue of needing to repay loans out of the equation, these firms aren’t productive enough to make any profit at all. Hence, they argue:","PeriodicalId":51618,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Applied Economics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2023-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59406018","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}

However, its evidence base is weak. Its key propositions were tested for US manufacturing, 1985-2016. The findings demonstrate strong evidence of convergence, but weak inter-sectoral capital flows, and no diminishing returns. Considerable dispersion remained even after three decades of strong convergence, and this was symmetrical; macro shocks, such as the financial crisis, had only a transient impact. Four of the existing theories in the literature are found to be compatible with these findings, and a hypothesis is suggested that synthesizes them in a realistic manner.","PeriodicalId":51618,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Applied Economics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2022-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41891808","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}

While the rest of the world has generally chosen to live with Covid-19, China still sticks to its elimination strategy, i.e. the dynamic Covid-zero policy. This paper considers this policy and its economic implications. First, this study describes the policy and provides a quantitative description of its development based on Google Trends data and the Baidu index. Second, we explore the economic impacts of the March – May 2022 lockdown and concludes that they were less severe – and the policy responses were also smaller – than those in early 2020. However, one major difference is that Chinese household and corporate sectors have much weaker expectations than in early 2020, and as a consequence, policy responses may also be less effective. Third, from the perspective of stock markets, which can be seen as an expected value of all possible scenarios in the future, this study finds that China’s Covid-zero policy is considered to be detrimental to the economy.","PeriodicalId":51618,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Applied Economics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2022-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48567767","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 question we ask is whether this amount increases or decreases with the number of types of aid and policy agencies in each sector. We use panel data on the amount of support received by Norwegian enterprises in the following four R&D sectors: the higher education sector, the institute sector, the health trusts, and the industrial sector. GMM regressions show that the amount of support is positively related to the number of policy agencies in all four sectors, and positively related to the number of types of aid in the industrial sector (the relationship is non-significant in each of the other three sectors). The estimation results therefore indicate that the amount of public R&D support increases in one of the R&D sectors (the industrial sector) when enterprises benefit from an increasing number of different types of aid, and increases in all sectors when enterprises benefit from an increasing number of different policy agencies.","PeriodicalId":51618,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Applied Economics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2022-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41243365","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}

Using the information that a policy response was announced or implemented immediately, we propose and provide proxy measures for ‘access’, ‘short-term cover’ and ‘medium- to long-term adequacy’ using secondary data. Then, we construct a COVID-19 Response Inclusiveness (CRI) score – to capture the extent of ‘inclusiveness’ inherent in the support across populations, particularly for the marginalised and more vulnerable. We define and capture inclusion as the equitable distribution of social and economic gains, enhanced well-being and capabilities, with social and political empowerment. Finally, using simple cross-country regressions, we find the initial COVID-19 cases, changes in mobility and Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita as key characteristics that were significantly associated with our measured extent of inclusiveness in countries’ response packages in the immediate aftermath of the crisis.","PeriodicalId":51618,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Applied Economics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2022-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45897198","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}
