Abstract:

This paper makes an improvement to the traditional institutional quality-growth hypothesis originally documented in the North’s framework by investigating the implications of the quality of formal institutions on economic misery in Nigeria. The specific measures of institutional quality include economic freedom, liberal democracy, and the corruption perception index, while economic misery is measured using Hanke’s modified misery index. The datasets obtained from the World Bank, Heritage Foundation, Freedom House, Transparency International, and Carto Institute were analysed using descriptive

Abstract:

This study empirically analyzes the impact of the financial structure and misery index on economic growth in Pakistan. We adopted Autoregressive-Distributed Lag (ARDL) for a co-integration approach to the data analysis and used time series data from 1989 to 2017. We used GDP as the dependent variable; the Financial Development index (FDI) and misery index as the explanatory variables; and remittances, real interest, and trade openness as the control variables. The empirical results indicate the existence of a long-term relationship among the included variables in the model and the FD index, mi

Purpose It is generally understood that during periods of economic hardship, some persons turn to crime to compensate for income deficiencies. The paper investigates the impact of economic misery on crime. The purpose of this paper is to provide insight into the relationship between economic conditions and economic misery. Design/methodology/approach An index of misery is employed that takes into account not only the rate of unemployment, but also the rate of inflation. The non-linearity of the relationship between economic misery and crime is modelled using Markov-switching (MS) models and th

Despite the increasing focus on global economic development, there remains a gap in understanding the specific impact of financial inclusion, financial development, and the misery index on economic growth within the Asian context.

Tourism’s capacity to alleviate poverty is one of the most important subjects in tourism studies, as tourism is capable of boosting economic growth and generating employment. On the other hand, it is known that lack of income and unemployment have negative effects on outbound tourism; however, the relationship between outbound tourism and poverty has been understudied.

This measure of misery index was also substantiated by the recent report from the World Bank on the issue of poverty, inequality, and wellness.

Abstract:

As a socio-economic world system, capitalism has undergone various historical changes from its early competitive market phase to late monopo~y capitalism. In its early phase, it largely constituted a process of transition gradually emerging from the feudal mode of production, which laid heavy restrictions on the new class of rising industrialists, businessmen, and merchants. Classical economists were the ideological champions of these progressive social classes; progressive as compared to the erstwhile feudal and monarchical classes. Karl Marx's critique of capitalism was an explanation of how

Abstract:

South Korea has low scores on both the Happy Planet Index (HPI) and Quality of Death Index (QDI) in comparison to other countries with similar levels of economic development. As the number of hospital deaths increases, so too does the number of people experiencing miserable deaths due to the availability and perhaps misuse of life-sustaining treatment. However, given the current individualized social structure, an increasing number of people will spend the end of their lives in elderly care facilities and hospitals, experiencing miserable deaths. Although many people fear misery at the end of

Abstract:

Drought has long been recognized as one of the major causes of human misery and being the natural disaster that annually claims the most victims. Droughts are recurring climatic events, which often hit everywhere, bringing significant water shortages, economic losses and adverse social consequences. Water scarcity can be said as the cause and effect of drought. It is not possible to avoid droughts. But drought preparedness can be developed and drought impacts can be managed. The levels of drought preparedness in countries of the region differ significantly. The success of both depends, amongst

Abstract:

Venezuela has gone from a country known for its oil production to a country known for its people's misery and outrageously high inflation rate, and Chavez's 21st-century socialism was the beginning of Venezuela's descent into crisis. Therefore, the research topic of this paper is the impact of 21st-century socialism on Venezuela during Chavez's administration.

Context: Plantar fasciitis is the commonest painful condition of the heel. It has a worldwide prevalence of 10%, a major economic impact and a key negative impact on quality of life. While publications on this condition from the developed world are fairly common, the publications from Nigeria on this condition are scanty and none by a Physiotherapist was found.
