This green transformation may, on one hand, phase out high-emission enterprises, disrupting the original industrial structure, while on the other hand, it can foster cleaner production techniques, encouraging entrepreneurs to enter sustainable sectors and driving industrial upgrading. This study investigates the impact of such a transition on entrepreneurial activities, using China's Low Carbon City Pilot (LCCP) policy as a case study and analyzing city-level data on new startups from 2003 to 2019. The results indicate that LCCP significantly stimulates entrepreneurial activity in regulated cities, with entrepreneurial creation outweighing entrepreneurial loss. Notably, the effects of LCCP vary geographically: significant growth in entrepreneurial activity is observed in the southern, central, and eastern regions, while the northern and northeastern regions show no significant improvement and may even experience negative effects. Furthermore, LCCP's impact on entrepreneurial activity is more pronounced in cities with economic prosperity, concentrated human capital, high levels of openness to foreign investment, and a non-resource-based economy. The study also finds that LCCP catalyzes entrepreneurial activity by driving green financial development and green technological innovation. Finally, government interventions such as supporting green industries, strengthening regulatory measures, prioritizing innovation activities, and protecting intellectual property demonstrate a positive moderating effect. This study contributes new empirical insights into the effect of institutional factors on entrepreneurial activities, offering valuable implications for the design of environmental policies amid the global shift toward a low-carbon future.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54200,"journal":{"name":"Economic Analysis and Policy","volume":"85 ","pages":"Pages 1374-1390"},"PeriodicalIF":7.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143132302","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 study aimed to estimate residential welfare, considering migration, agglomeration, and congestion effects across 221 urban areas in Japan in the 2010s. Our findings showed the following: 1) migration from small cities to large cities worsened congestion in large cities and diminished agglomeration effects in small cities, leading to an overall decrease in residential welfare; 2) the reduction in agglomeration effects in small cities outweighed the negative effect of increased congestion in large cities, leading to a widening disparity in utility between large and small cities and potentially encouraging further migration to large cities; and 3) migration increased the income of landowners in large cities but decreased the utility of residents in both large and small cities. Findings 1) and 2) are novel insights identified through empirical analysis targeting Japanese cities. This is partly attributed to the relatively fewer land use regulations in Japanese cities compared with large cities in Europe and the United States, which have been the subjects of previous empirical studies. On the basis of these findings, the study discusses the legitimacy of policy interventions in peripheral developments from the perspective of improving residential welfare, for example, enhancing the attractiveness of industrial locations through infrastructure investments. These insights offer new perspectives for regional policy analysis.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54200,"journal":{"name":"Economic Analysis and Policy","volume":"85 ","pages":"Pages 1238-1257"},"PeriodicalIF":7.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143132206","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The result captures well the case of several developing countries, including Chad, Ghana, Sri Lanka, and Zambia which have been seeking treatment under the G20 Common Framework or a similar mechanism, due to high levels of public external debt, including a significant share from private sources. In addition, the result also highlights that about 21 other developing countries, including some emerging economies have exceeded the threshold beyond which a further increase in PPG external debt from private sources would generate slower economic growth rates.

The impact of different decentralization reforms on the carbon emission intensity of enterprises was analyzed using the difference-in-differences method. The empirical results show that fiscal decentralization can inhibit the carbon emission intensity of enterprises, and the reduction of enterprise energy consumption and the increase of green investment are the action channels. Administrative decentralization can promote the carbon emission intensity of enterprises; increasing enterprise energy consumption, decreasing energy utilization efficiency, expanding production scale, and decreasing green investment are the action channels. The results of heterogeneity analysis show that the impact of both types of decentralization reforms on the carbon emission intensity of different enterprises differs significantly; this is caused by differences in the ownership type, the emission intensive level, and the level of environmental regulation in the region they are located.

While input servitization has emerged as a promising pathway, its impact on international competitiveness remains understudied in developing contexts. This study leverages global input-output data to measure Chinese manufacturing input servitization levels and investigates their influence on enterprises' international competitive advantages, measured through internationalization breadth and depth. The findings reveal that input servitization can significantly enhance both the breadth and depth of enterprises' internationalization by improving efficiency and product quality, particularly benefiting private-owned and growing-stage enterprises. Although financial constraints may moderate this effect, strong risk-taking ability, industrial chain linkages, and absorption capacities amplify the positive impact of input servitization on internationalization. Moreover, the study demonstrates that domestically sourced services effectively drive enterprises' internationalization, whereas services from developed countries yield benefits only for enterprises possessing robust absorption capacities. These findings advance the literature on servitization and international business by revealing the underlying mechanisms and boundary conditions through which input servitization shapes international competitive advantages, while offering practical implications for developing countries striving to enhance their global competitiveness.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54200,"journal":{"name":"Economic Analysis and Policy","volume":"85 ","pages":"Pages 1197-1215"},"PeriodicalIF":7.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143132209","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 results show that digital economic development significantly optimizes labor allocation between digital and non-digital enterprises within the same city and industry, but not across industries within the same city. This impact varies across regions and industries, with stronger effects in urban agglomerations, higher administrative-level cities, and capital-technology-intensive industries. The analysis of micro-mechanisms reveals that the urban digital economy drives the labor allocation through two key pathways: the employment \"creation-destruction\" effect and the labor productivity effect resulting from digital transformation. Additionally, the further analysis indicates that while the digital economy optimizes labor allocation between digital and non-digital enterprises, it decreases efficiency of labor allocation within non-digital enterprises. However, it does not significantly affect digital enterprises.
