SME Development, Economic Growth and Structural Change: Evidence from Ghana and South Africa
Journal of Agriculture and Environment. 2020. No. 2 (14).
Tsatsenko N.
This paper raises the question of how SME development can be embedded into the process of structural change. The linkages between various transformations’ processes aimed at enhancing the role of SMEs in two countries in the Sub-Saharan African region as a new growth opportunity are highlighted. In addition, under rapidly changing economic conditions, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are very likely to have a potential contribution to the economy. To the understanding of the interaction between SMEs, structural change and economic growth, this paper explores the nature of SME development, the nature of structural change, and the process of economic growth in Ghana and South Africa based on country-study by using the empirical data. Moreover, the development of the SME in the context of private sector development is studied through SME-policy.

This article examines the musealisation of industrial heritage and its role in regional and corporate branding. The relevance of this study stems from deindustrialisation processes, the growth of industrial tourism, and the need to preserve historical memory, which is particularly important in the context of Russian realities—the lack of a legal definition of the concept ...

Статья посвящена разработке практических рекомендаций по формированию стратегии адаптации российских десертных брендов к специфике китайского рынка. ...

Green transitions are widely expected to attract cleaner capital and accelerate decarbonization; however, emerging-economy evidence increasingly challenges this assumption. This study examines the dynamic relationship between energy transition indicators and capital inflows in BRICS+ economies over the period 1996–2022, explicitly testing the “Green Haven” hypothesis under conditions of global uncertainty. Unlike much of the existing ...

This study conducted in Indonesia between 2000 and 2023, demonstrates a complex, non-linear interplay between the economic environment and the emergence of clean energy start-ups. Using Autoregressive Distributed Lag and Markov Switching models, the research shows that start-up formation coincides with periods of lower GDP growth, suggesting that innovation is often spurred by necessity. Two ...

Abstract. Over the years of market reforms, China has moved from an autarkic economy to the position of the world’s largest trading power, becoming a global leader both in export volume and in total foreign trade turnover. For a long time, China’s export success was commonly explained by her use of comparative advantages in labor-intensive ...

The field of business model adaptation (BMA) remains conceptually fragmented: definitions, antecedents, and typological patterns are scattered across isolated empirical studies, precluding cumulative theory-building. This systematic review aims to synthesise the existing literature on BMA by mapping how the construct is defined, what drives it, and what typological patterns can be identified. Following the SPAR-4-SLR ...

This work is devoted to a theoretical explanation of the Easterlin paradox, according to which long-term economic growth does not make average level of people's happiness increasing. By happiness, we mean the intensity of emotions people experience while comparing their new income with its expected value, or the target income with its original value. In the first case, ...

Menstrual health serves as a critical litmus test for state intervention in contexts where women’s bodily experiences are historically shaped by stigma, cultural taboos, and structural violence. Drawing on Joseph Gusfield’s theory of social problems, this review traces the moral passage of menstruation in Ghana (1992–2025) from a privately managed, stigmatized phenomenon to a matter ...

This paper argues that Luigi Pasinetti’s theory of structural change—most notably his concept of vertically hyper-integrated sectors—can be better understood when read against the background of the Soviet debates on planning and industrialization of the 1920s and 1930s. We suggest that Pasinetti’s analytical framework addresses, at a high level of abstraction, a set of problems ...
