Abstract:
We develop a simple model with endogenous rural–urban migration to analyze the implications of migration restrictions for economic welfare. The model reveals that a combination of an efficient urban bias in public service provision and internal migration restrictions can raise social welfare. Our results suggest that migration restrictions should be carefully assessed as a policy choice rather than immediately dismissed as suboptimal. However, even when restrictions raise social welfare, they increase urban households’ welfare at the expense of rural households’ welfare, creating an equity tra

Most people would agree that developing countries should advance from basic, informal, and insecure welfare provision toward universal, formal, and secure welfare regimes.

Abstract:
This study evaluates the embedded liberalism hypothesis in a broad swath of less developed countries (LDCs). The authors find that LDC governments pursue a distinct welfare state policy that protects citizens from economic insecurities associated with global market expansion. Specifically, governments use public employment—and particularly employment in civil services and administration—to foster domestic stability alongside market expansion. However, such jobs are targeted to politically salient groups, not poorer groups that might also face increased economic uncertainty postopenness. In tur

Pain scales classify the severity of pain inflicted on laboratory animals from little or none up to severe.

Furthermore, a pain scale has practical applications: 1) in review procedures for animal welfare concerns; 2) in developing policies on the use of animals in education; and 3) as a basis for collecting national data on animal experimentation, so that meaningful data can

Abstract:
In this paper, we aim to study the interrelationship between social spending, economic growth, and income inequality in developing countries from the year 1990 to 2013. We observed that all the categories of social spending produced a significant reduction in income inequality. Further, the impact of health and education spending on economic growth is significant, and that of social protection is insignificant. This indicates that both health and education spending can break the trade-off between equity and efficiency, that is, it can lead to both growth and progressive distributional change.

Abstract:
Irrigation plays an important role in improving smallholder agricultural production and/or productivity, household food security and rural poverty reduction in the developing countries. The objective of this study is to assess the impact of irrigation access on household welfare (measured in terms of household expenditure) in the saline zone in West Bengal, India. A total of 440 farming households were interviewed and the data were analysed using the Propensity Score Matching (PSM) method. The study results indicated that irrigation access has a significant positive impact on improving househo

Abstract:
AbstractAs described by T. H. Marshall sixty years ago, the Western itinerary to modern democracy and the welfare state followed the sequence of civil, political and social citizenship rights. We demonstrate that Marshall's sequence is no longer the prevalent one in the developing and transformation countries of the contemporary era. Instead, political rights are generally at least as effective as civil liberties which are at least as effective as social rights. This new sequencing is attributable to the combination of ‘liberal hegemony’ and inauspicious structural constraints. More generally,

Abstract:
Adopting mixed policy objectives (economic and non-economic) introduces a divergence to the ‘economic based model’ currently advocated as the basis for competition law convergence. One area of competition law where mixed policy objectives are prominently featured is merger control. South Africa is a leading example of a jurisdiction that embraces mixed objectives of competition law. In this article, we look at competition law enforcement in South Africa focusing on large mergers in the past fifteen years. The article goes beyond the conceptual, pros & cons discussion of the inclusion of pu

Abstract:
The significance of infrastructure for economic growth and the welfare of a country has become a burning issue for the last three decades. This research examines the impact of infrastructure on economic growth across selected developed and developing countries. The dependent variable is economic growth, measured by the growth rate of gross domestic product, and the independent variables to measure infrastructure are transportation, communication, education, and electricity. The data set for analysis is collected from online sources of World Development Indicators for eighteen years (2000-2018)

Common pool resources (CPRs) play crucial role in the welfare of rural household. In developing countries like India, CPRs act as development drivers and safety-net providerto Poor People (PP). To overcome ‘Tragedy of Commons’and sustainable conservation of commons, cooperation is needed to conserve CPRs due to its features: non excludability and substractability of the yield. But, community institution (rural households or community) sometimes faces challenges to conserve economicallywhen we consider two additional characteristics of commons such as mobilityand stationary.

Abstract:
The development of the infrastructure potential is not only one of the main factors in the formation of competitive advantages, increasing public welfare and quality of life, but also occupies a key place in the concept of sustainable economy. However, the issue of implementing large infrastructure projects is very difficult, especially in the context of fiscal restrictions in developing countries. In this regard, the question of using the public-private partnership mechanism to solve national strategic issues has acquired particular importance. The considered experience of Peru has proven the

Information and communications technology (ICT) has been widely embraced in many developing economies in recent times. Extant research reveals that ICT increases economic growth. Beyond economic growth, improved access to information, markets and economic opportunities via information and communications technology have the potential to influence other dimensions of public welfare. This study quantitatively examines the effects of ICT on selected health and gender dimensions of Pacific Island developing countries’ populations.

Abstract:
By developing an intertemporal decision-making model, this paper investigates the impact of the acquisition of overseas residency by a firm’s beneficial owner on the firm’s intertemporal decision-making. By incorporating a discount rate in the model, the paper finds that obtaining foreign residency alters the temporal distributional characteristics of the utility of the beneficial owner, weakening its preference for intertemporal investment behaviors such as R&D and donations. We then conduct an empirical analysis using the propensity score matching method for Chinese listed firms. The res

Abstract:
Women’s empowerment has become a major concern of both developed and developing countries across the world. Women are often largely marginalized from economic, political, and familial spheres because they tend to have limited access to economic resources, health care, and education and suffer disproportionately from the effects of poverty, discriminatory laws, practices, attitudes and gender stereotypes, and so forth. This study assesses the level of women’s empowerment by scrutinizing economic, political, and interpersonal and familial factors in rural Bangladesh. The study employed qualitati

It generates an imbalance in public finances, inflated social obligations that will be impossible to fulfill in the future. At present, it exists at the expense of the exploitation of future generations, some of whose representatives have not yet been born. The protective state (the "night watchman") is being displaced by the distributing state: growing funding for social programs leaves less and less money for defense and other primary functions of the state.

Abstract:
The welfare level differs in every geography depending on the economy. This also differentiates the variables that are taken into account when determining transportation fares. While underdeveloped or developing countries determine prices by focusing only operating and investment costs, developed countries take user and environmental costs into consideration. However, the failure to describe the parameters used in determining these costs leads to the emergence of ineffective pricing policies. Especially the concept of user cost has become the focus of human-oriented policies in recent years. T

This study therefore evaluated the local budgeting policy implemented in Indonesia through Village Fund (VF) policy as well as examining the mediating role of local community empowerment. This investigation used crossectional data from 399 respondents from villages in Indonesia.
