| Summary/Abstract |
The paper investigates energy price co-movement over the period 01/1999-12/2005 for China as a whole, and over sub-periods and for seven regions, using panel unit root and panel cointegration tests developed by Pedroni (1999, 2004). The results suggest that not all energy sources are spatially homogenous in prices and the processes of energy price cointegration are different over sub-periods; over groups of fuels; and over regions. Coal and electricity prices have co-moved since 2003 while gasoline and diesel prices have co-moved since 1997. The results show that there are clearly variations in the emergence of energy price co-movement over regions, implying that regional fuel markets have emerged in China. Important lessons that can be learnt from the results are that an energy market has, to some extent, already emerged in China and, as a result, energy prices are substantially less distorted than before. If correct, these findings have significant global implications both in terms of future emission reductions, emission trading and trade negotiations where China should be treated as a 'market driven economy'.

| Summary/Abstract |
This study explores different energy consumption vectors during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic in Portugal. Most of the workforce started working from home and resource consumption significantly shifted towards the domestic sector. The ensuing confinement protocols caused a shift in everyday life, which in turn significantly altered the energy supply and demand landscape. This event, although catastrophic in terms of loss of human life and economic development, can provide us with valuable data to study the potential of new strategies to achieve EU 2050 Energy goals. It was investigated whether the pandemic has opened a path and provided us with a partial answer to decarbonization in the form of home office practices as a possible energy efficiency measure. The present study shows that, in Portugal, there was a 15.7% reduction of primary energy consumption (accounting for electricity, natural gas and transport fuels) compared to 2019. The data suggest that actions targeting reduced mobility, such as home office practices and the decentralization of the workforce, could be a relevant energy efficiency measure.

| Summary/Abstract |
A large body of scholarship finds a negative relationship between natural resources and democracy. Extant cross-country regressions, however, assume random effects and are run on panel datasets with relatively short time dimensions. Because natural resource reliance is not an exogenous variable, this is not an effective strategy for uncovering causal relationships. Numerous sources of bias may be driving the results, the most serious of which is omitted variable bias induced by unobserved country-specific and time-invariant heterogeneity. To address these problems, we develop unique historical datasets, employ time-series centric techniques, and operationalize explicitly specified counterfactuals. We test to see if there is a long-run relationship between resource reliance and regime type within countries over time, both on a country-by-country basis and across several different panels. We find that increases in resource reliance are not associated with authoritarianism. In fact, in many specifications we generate results that suggest a resource blessing.

| Summary/Abstract |
The global economic crisis has revealed the folly of large U.S. budget and trade deficits, as well as of the strong dollar that makes them possible. If it is serious about recovery, the United States must balance the budget, stimulate private saving, and embrace a declining dollar.

| Summary/Abstract |
Prime objective of this study is to analyze fuel consumption patterns at national as well as at provincial level for Pakistan. Dynamic patterns in household fuel choices have been examined under Two-Stage Budgeting Framework through Quadratic Approximation of Almost Ideal Demand System (QUAIDS) using HIES data for year 2015–16 to obtain reliable estimates of Price and Budget Elasticities. Quadratic Engel estimates reflect households’ energy expenditures allocation decisions while the Probit estimates explore how alternate fuels are chosen by households for consumption? The Engel estimates highlight that the share of fuel expenditures in total household expenditures is higher in rural areas than in urban areas. The computed compensated price elasticities suggest that Firewood and Kerosene are relatively more price inelastic in rural areas as compared to the urban areas. Furthermore, our estimates also indicate that cleaner fuels are more price inelastic in urban areas than in rural areas with inter-provincial variations in computed elasticities. These estimates can be used as an effective policy making tool for transition towards cleaner fuels, energy policy simulations, to evaluate taxation and subsidy frameworks and energy system forecasting to prevent environmental degradation.

| Summary/Abstract |
The ultimate goal of Iran's nuclear programme remains uncertain. While the nuclear reactor of Bushehr has finally been connected to the power grid, the nuclear fuel enrichment activities and their location cause concern to the international community. Thirty years of nuclear investments demonstrate a negative cost-benefit analysis: technical constraints and economic and infrastructural requirements constitute a burden on the implementation of a nuclear programme. This article analyses the economic, legal, technical and political aspects of the Iranian programme in order to uncover its civil and/or military finality.
