From Classrooms to Cohesion
Despite sustained investments in education, development outcomes remain uneven across low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs). Existing research predominantly explains this variation through economic resources and institutional capacity, while treating education primarily as an input to human capital formation. This study advances an alternative perspective by conceptualizing education as a core institution of socialization that shapes instituti…
Unmasking the shadow economy
This study investigates the impact of economic policy uncertainty (EPU), clean energy (CE), and clean technology (CT) on the shadow economy across BRICS countries from 2001 to 2022. Using a robust econometric framework that includes Cross-Sectionally Augmented Autoregressive Distributed Lag (CS-ARDL) models, cointegration tests, and nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag (NARDL) estimations, the analysis captures both symmetric and asymmetric d…
Human Capital, Digital Capability, and Triple‐Bottom‐Line Sustainability
Achieving balanced sustainable development remains a central global challenge, with repeated warnings from COP26 to COP28 revealing persistent imbalances across economic, environmental, and social pillars. This challenge is especially acute in the Global South, where rising human capital has not translated into corresponding environmental progress. This paper investigates whether digital capability serves as the activation mechanism that enables …

The Role of Digital Financial Inclusion and Governance in Shaping Health Spending
Given the growing recognition of digital financial inclusion (DFI) and governance (GVN) systems in ensuring the proper dissemination of public funds, both variables can play a transformative role in enhancing the proper delivery of public health facilities. This study investigates the role of DFI and GVN in determining the health spending (HSP) across 22 Arab League countries over the period 1999 to 2023. The cross‐sectionally augmented autoregre…
The departure dilemma
Keeping in mind the importance of pre-quitting behaviors, this study attempts to investigate the impact of directors’ last working year on firm performance. Analyzing a sample of Chinese listed firms over the period of 2003 to 2018, we find that corporate boards with more directors who are in their last working year are negatively related to firm performance. We argue that this negative relationship may be due to the negative behavior and less co…
Policy Lessons From the Load Capacity Curve
This paper is an analysis of the environmental, social, governance, and economic factors (ESG‐ECF) and the environmental quality measured by the Load Capacity Factor (LCF) in 30 OECD countries in the years between 2000 and 2024. The analysis is based on the Method of Moments Quantile Regression (MMQR) that captures the heterogeneous effects of the LCF distribution and solves endogeneity and nonlinearity. To determine the validity of the hypothesi…
