Article Citation - WoS: 41Citation - Scopus: 43Re-Estimating the Interconnectedness Between the Demand of Energy Consumption, Income, and Sustainability Indices(Springer Heidelberg, 2019-07-10) Ozcan, Burcu; Tzeremes, Panayiotis; Dogan, EyupIn this study, we analyze the time-varying causality linkages between energy consumption, economic growth, and environmental degradation in 33 Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development countries, spanning the period 2000 to 2013. The curve causality approach provides evidence of a significant environmental Kuznets curve in 25 countries in the case of the ecological footprint and in 23 countries in the case of the Environmental Performance Index. However, out of them, only Italy, Slovakia, and South Korea have traditional environmental Kuznets curve, in the form of an inverted U-shaped curve. For the remaining countries, different forms of curves are valid. In particular, an N-shaped curve appears to be valid between income and environmental degradation for nearly half of the sample, i.e., for Austria, Belgium, Chile, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland, New Zealand, Turkey, and the USA. Additionally, bidirectional causality relationships are confirmed among all covariates in most countries. In view of the results, some crucial policy implications would be suggested, such as sustainable development that aims to make a balance between economic growth and environmental protection.Article Citation - WoS: 177Citation - Scopus: 196Analyzing the Impacts of Geopolitical Risk and Economic Uncertainty on Natural Resources Rents(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2021-08) Dogan, Eyup; Majeed, Muhammad Tariq; Luni, TaniaThe determinants of natural resources rents have been extensively analyzed in the resources economics and policy literature; however, the role of geopolitical risk and uncertainty in rents remains unexplored. Given that these indicators are rather volatile and thus important to discover for developing countries which own a large portion of natural resources in the world, this study aims to examine the effects of geopolitical risk and economic policy uncertainty on natural resources rents in a group of developing economies by applying the novel panel quantile estimation technique on the panel data over 1985-2018. The empirical results suggest that geopolitical risk has a negative impact on the natural resources rents for all quantiles while economic growth increases natural resources rents across middle-and-high quantiles. In contrast, the influence of economic policy uncertainty on resources rents varies across the quantiles. The uncertainty increases natural resources rents in low quantiles and decreases rents in high quantiles. Thus, quantile regression results reveal heterogeneous impacts of the selected main determinants of natural resources rents. Important policy implications are further discussed in the study.
