Growth, Population and Pollution: Understanding Carbon Emissions in ASEAN Countries

2024-10-31T03:25:53+00:00

This study examines the impact of human resources, population density, industrial activity, and economic growth on atmospheric carbon dioxide emissions in 11 ASEAN member nations from 1999 to 2022. Using a dynamic threshold panel data model and dynamic analysis, the variables are assessed to determine their effects. The research finds that the threshold value of human resources is 2.772, beyond which its relationship with other factors becomes significant. A human resources value of -0.057 indicates that increased human resources lead to a decrease in emissions. Population density (correlation of 0.332), industrial activity (coefficient of 0.007), and economic growth (coefficient of 0.297) are positively correlated with higher emissions. The baseline for carbon dioxide emissions is 1.113, serving as the model constant. The study suggests that while economic expansion and improved human resources can increase emissions, surpassing a certain threshold in human resources can significantly reduce them. This research provides new insights into the effects of industrial activity and population density on emissions, highlighting varying impacts from different development rates.

Exploring Dual Role Conflict and Gender Equality for Working Women

2024-10-31T03:27:42+00:00

Women have long been viewed as passive agents of development, leading to an underestimation of their individual and collective abilities. Various studies show that women have limitations in capacity building, so that their enthusiasm for the family economy and national economic development is forced to decline, and they face social gender attitudes. The purpose of this study is to provide a new picture of the socio-economic aspects of women's empowerment and gender equality in support of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs 5) and to find out whether female workers experience multiple role conflicts and support for gender equality from their partners. This type of research is descriptive with a phenomenological approach by observing phenomena that occur in the field. Data collection techniques through document research by analyzing the information collected in text, notes, documents or results from previous research. The results show that women's empowerment is a tool for measuring sustainable development (SDG) based on the concept of gender and development which expects the development of all individuals regardless of gender. Women's empowerment can also be achieved through the concept that women must be allowed to be themselves, wherever they are, without being separated in the public or domestic space. They can play various roles as long as they are committed to truth and justice with the support of their partners. Ending all forms of threats to women is not only a human right, but critical to accelerating sustainable development and helping to drive overall economic growth and development, in line with the announced 2030 global roadmap and Sustainable Development Goal (SDGs) 5.

Carbon Dioxide Discharges and Taxes: Analysis of the Influence of GNI Per Capita, Human Development Index, and Industrialization Level

2024-10-31T03:31:55+00:00

This research aims to determine the fundamental link between development strategies, environmental sustainability, and economic growth, particularly examining the global impact of CO2 emissions and the influence of industrial and tax laws on the environment and economy. Using W statistics and Zbar-stat, the study determines the causal relationships among variables, employing a dynamic threshold panel data model to evaluate threshold impacts. Data from 1999 to 2022 were collected from 40 countries, categorized into developed and developing nations by the World Bank. The Dumitrescu-Hurlin Panel Causality Test and Pesaran's CD test reveal a global relationship among policy, environment, and economy, with changes in CO2 emissions and GNI per capita influencing international environmental and economic policies. Investment in human development shows a bidirectional relationship with CO2 emissions, industrialization, and taxes. Dynamic threshold panel data models indicate varying impacts of human development investments on CO2 emissions depending on their level, highlighting the need for threshold considerations in policy-making. This study offers new insights into the interplay between development strategies and environmental sustainability, contributing significantly to environmental economics and assisting policymakers in crafting more effective and sustainable programs.

Poverty Dynamics in ASEAN: The Role of Human Capital and Taxes in Shaping the Economic Future

2024-10-31T03:38:52+00:00

This research aims to analyze the influence of poverty levels, carbon dioxide emissions, industrialization processes, tax systems, and investment in human capital on poverty levels in ASEAN member countries, focusing on threshold values and poverty persistence coefficients to identify effective interventions. Using a dynamic threshold panel data model, the study evaluates 11 ASEAN member countries from 1999 to 2022. The results show that the human capital index is a critical variable in poverty analysis, with a significant threshold value of 1.881, indicating its substantial impact on poverty levels. The persistence coefficient of 1.112 highlights the yearly persistence of poverty, underscoring the need for timely and effective interventions. High carbon dioxide emissions and industrialization coefficients suggest that uncontrolled industrial growth could exacerbate poverty, while significant negative coefficients for taxes and human capital suggest that improvements in these areas could reduce poverty. This study contributes new insights by integrating dynamic threshold analysis in the ASEAN context, offering a fresh perspective on the relationship between human capital, economic factors, and poverty.

Human Capital and Labor Force Participation Rate: Exploring the Role and Relationship to Poverty in Indonesia

2024-10-31T03:42:40+00:00

The relationship between human capital, labor force participation rate, and poverty rate in Indonesia is interconnected. This research aims to analyze and explore the influence between human capital, labor force participation rate, and poverty rate in Indonesia. The research was conducted from 2001 to 2021 using the VAR analysis approach. The research findings explain that education and health have a negative impact on poverty, supporting the hypothesis that the improvement of human capital affects the reduction of poverty in Indonesia. In addition, the labor force participation also has a negative impact on poverty. Interestingly, the health improvement is apparently related to the decrease in Indonesia's labor force participation rate. Therefore, policymakers need to pay attention to strategies for enhancing human capital through education and health and factors related to labor force participation to reduce poverty levels in Indonesia.

FDI and Economic Growth: A Case Study of Indonesia with Dynamic Econometric Model

2024-10-31T03:45:16+00:00

This study looks at the dynamic relationship between foreign direct investment (FDI) and Indonesia's economic development. The main objectives are to identify FDI patterns and trends, evaluate their impact on economic growth indicators such as GDP and employment, and investigate the factors driving FDI flows. This study uses dynamic econometric models, specifically Vector Autoregression (VAR) and Vector Error Correction Model (VECM), to quantify the causal relationship between FDI and economic development. The secondary data, which covers the years 2000–2023, came from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS), Bank Indonesia, and the World Bank and IMF annual reports. The study's conclusions demonstrate that FDI significantly and favorably influences Indonesia's economic growth over the long run. According to impulse response function (IRF) study, FDI steadily boosts GDP, local company productivity, and job creation. Variance decomposition confirms that FDI is the main factor influencing GDP variability, with an increasing contribution over time. The findings also highlight the importance of supportive government policies, namely tax incentives and investment-friendly regulations, and macroeconomic stability in attracting FDI flows. Additionally, FDI helps to improve infrastructure and human resource quality, as well as workforce quality through training and technology transfer. This study backs up earlier research that highlights the significance of foreign direct investment (FDI) as a key contributor to economic growth in developing nations and the necessity of macroeconomic stability and supportive governmental policies to optimize FDI's positive effects on the Indonesian economy.
