Human Capital and Economic Resilience to Economic and Health Shocks
In a highly interconnected global landscape, where shocks can have far‐reaching spill‐over effects, the emphasis on enhancing resilience has naturally grown, capturing the interest of policymakers. This study examines regional (NUTS2) economic resilience over the Great Recession and the COVID‐19 pandemic. Our resilience framework incorporates diverse economic dimensions, distinct resilience stages while also accounting for the regional business c…
Exploring the urban-rural dichotomies in post-pandemic migration intention
Since the beginning of the 21st century, we have been living in the ‘urban century’, characterised by a rise in the number of cities and mega-cities and a structural population increase in most cities, to the detriment of rural areas. Given the declining interest in rurality, the aims and scope of this paper are to map out the complex force field of rurality versus urbanity, and explore if the COVID pandemic has become a ‘game changer’ that thus …

Institutional Determinants of Informal Payments for Health Services
Healthcare accessibility and equity remain important issues, as corruption in the form of informal payments is still prevalent in many countries across the world. This study employs a panel data analysis over the 2006-2013 period to explore the role of different institutional factors in explaining the prevalence of informal payments. Covering 117 countries, our findings confirm the significant role of both formal and informal institutions. Good g…
Informal Payments by Patients in Central and Eastern Europe during the Covid-19 Pandemic
Confronted with a global pandemic, public healthcare systems are under pressure, making access to healthcare services difficult for patients. This provides fertile ground for using illegal practices such as informal payments to gain access. This paper aims to evaluate the use of informal payments by patients during the COVID-19 pandemic and the institutions that affect the prevalence of this practice. Various measurements of formal and informal i…
Evaluating the Determinants of EU Funds Absorption across Old and New Member States – the Role of Administrative Capacity and Political Governance
This article assesses the impact of administrative capacity and political governance factors on the absorption of structural and cohesion funds (SCF). We drew on EU‐27 country level data and developed a dynamic panel data model for the 2007–15 implementation period. By using a tobit estimation technique, the results indicated that government effectiveness and public diversion of funds significantly affect the recipient countries ability to absorb…
