Abstract

New indexes of environment and institutions are constructed following principal component analysis (PCA), while non-linear panel regression is employed. This study attempts to estimate a non-linear impact of GDP per capita on the environment following the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) Hypothesis for 97 developing countries during 1991-2014. The study reveals that a traditional EKC shows a U-shaped relationship under static panels, with both quadratic and cubic regressions. Interestingly, the inverted U-shaped occurs when a traditional EKC is estimated by the dynamic panels, with both quadratic and cubic regressions. Moreover, the EKC model is inverted U-shaped following static and dynamic panels, with both quadratic and cubic regressions under institutions. Indeed, the institutions significantly contribute to express EKC in developing countries. Policymakers should formulate environmental policies following climate change mitigation in the environmental sustainability framework, improve the quality of institutions, and increase macroeconomic management to anticipate external shocks such as openness, globalization, and FDI inflows.

Abstract

Gender equality and employment opportunities provide a great opportunity for women to enter the labor market. This study aims to analyze the factors that influence the decision of married women to work in Banyuputih Village, Jepara Regency. Banyuputih village was chosen as a research location because of the existence of a manufacturing industry that was able to boost the village's economy. The number of samples used in the study were 100 respondents in accordance with the objectives of the study. The independent variables used are the level of education, husband's income and the number of children under five. Data analysis was performed using Binary Logistic Regression because the dependent variable was in the form of dummy. The analysis showed that the level of education had a positive and significant effect, while the husband's income variable and the number of children under five had a negative and significant effect on the decision of married women to work in Banyuputih Village.
