Urbanization and economic growth in Punjab (India): an empirical analysis
Urban Research and Practice. 2017. Vol. 10. No. 4. P. 379–402.
Tripathi S., Mahey K.
When several cross-country and country level studies investigate the relevant determinates of urbanization and its impact on economic growth, the present paper focuses on micro level analysis by considering Indian states of Punjab. The empirical results show that urban population in Punjab is concentrated in and around Class I cities as in India. The distance to the nearest railway station from a city, city-wise rainfall have a negative effect while basic infrastructural facilities (i.e., number of schools, latrines, hospital, water availability) have a positive impact on urbanization. Finally, it finds a positive link between urbanization and economic growth in Punjab.

This paper proposes Covariate-Balanced Weighted Stacked Difference-in-Differences (CBWSDID), a design-based extension of weighted stacked DID for settings in which untreated trends may be conditionally rather than unconditionally parallel. The estimator separates within-subexperiment design adjustment from across-subexperiment aggregation: matching or weighting improves treated-control comparability within each stacked subexperiment, while the corrective stacked weights of Wing et ...

In this special issue, we bring together the post-colonial and post-socialist conditions of the post-Soviet space and the Indian subcontinent through the study of human–nature relationships. Not only are these two regions entangled through the Eurasian geography, but they also both represent hybrid modernization trajectories characterized by varying socio-political responses to Western modernity and the ...

The paper examines the evolution of the Indian model of federal relations. The author shows that the highly centralized nature of the state-territorial structure that took place in British India was largely preserved after India gained independence in 1947. Despite the fact that a number of Acts of the British Parliament (Government of India Acts ...

This article is devoted to the phenomenon of intrinsic motivation, to understand which two models are proposed. We study how positive/negative intrinsic motivation to work (experienced utility) affects worker's individual labour supply (model I) and the amount of effort they exert (model II). In model I, we use intrinsic motivation to explain the positive/negative slope ...

In this paper, we develop a formal mathematical model aimed to explain the Dunning-Kruger effect that beginners systematically overestimate their own competence in various fields of knowledge and activity. We argue that the Dunning-Kruger effect arises from the emotional nature of confidence combined with unknown unknowns that it simply can not take into account due ...

The pace at which cities are getting smart creates many dilemmas in trade-offs among technological advancement, sustainability and equity. As cities adopt artificial intelligence (AI), the Metaverse and other related technologies, they face persistent challenges of governance, infrastructure, digital equality, and environmental concerns. Although research is being done on the benefits of having smart cities, ...

This paper attempts to model the evolutionary theory of modernization and democratization. The model reflects the key provisions of R. Inglehart and C. Welzel's theory and provides a microfoundation for the adaptation of subjective values to the objective importances of the survival factors and the structure of the labour markets from the perspective of evolutionary ...

Many competitive environments allow for a third party to be indirectly involved by supporting one or both sides in the conflict. Such support can come from trade partners, colleagues, or allies, who can in turn benefit from a supported party's success. We use theory and an experiment to investigate how support relationships develop endogenously in ...

The study explores a psychological phenomenon of inaction inertia-avoiding action after missing a more favourable opportunity. Unlike action inertia (e.g.,sunk costs effect), inaction inertia has been less studied, particularly in economic contexts. Considering the reference dependent nature of the phenomenon, I build on the work of Kőszegi and Rabin (2006) to examine how past experiences ...

Simplified tax regimes with explicit eligibility thresholds are a common tool which reduces tax burden but distorts firms’ behavior, creating local bunching just below the threshold. However, we show that when firms have access to business splitting their responses extend far beyond the local margin. Our model demonstrates that splitting reduces local bunching but amplifies ...

In recent years, an emerging body of empirical research has shown that tax audits, in addition to recovering unpaid taxes (direct effect), increase future tax compliance (indirect or dynamic effect). This literature also suggests that updating expectations induced by audit experience plays an important role in explaining this indirect effect. However, exactly how taxpayers form ...

While the emerging empirical literature shows that collateral tax sanctions (CTSs) - such as driver’s license suspensions or passport denials - appear to be effective instruments to enforce tax debt collection, there are still few theoretical arguments to explain why. In this paper, I model enforcement of tax debt collection and provide a new rationale for why it could ...

We study the application of factor investing in the market for real estate (REITs). The analysis of traditional factor strategies, such as momentum, value, size and profitability, reveals their unstable and atypical behavior in comparison to the equity market, however, there is a strong momentum effect in the factor strategies. We propose a new dynamic ...

Хотя санкции в целом негативно сказываются на экономическом росте и эффективности деятельности компаний, есть некоторые свидетельства того, что они также могут подталкивать компании к инновациям, а негативный эффект преодолевается при помощи адаптации компании.

Innovation has long been at the center of debates in economics, management, and organizational studies. However, innovation is never free of uncertainty and risk. Every act of innovation implies a departure from established paths and a willingness to embrace the unknown. From the beginning it's never clear if there is an audience which appreciates the ...
