AbstractThe aim of this paper is to identify the differences in the determinants of successful transition (understood as the creation of a new development path) between the eastern and the western EU Member States between 1994 and 2014 and elaborate assumptions for a strategy of constructing regional advantage for them at the NUTS2 level. We find that the regional transition requires individual approaches to using comparative advantage at the beginning of the process and then competing with specific advantages that can be consciously constructed throughout the process. Therefore, we hypothesise that a successful transition requires constructing regional advantages based on the knowledge-related factors, leading to specialisation in the knowledge-intensive industries. Furthermore, we state that the way of constructing such advantages differs across the regions. All of our hypotheses were confirmed. Both groups of regions had different comparative advantages at the beginning of the period and constructed competitive advantage based on related knowledge-intensive industries, leading to their specialisation. Interestingly, although the process of building regional advantage was similar, the factors used to create it were different, had a different impact on GDP growth and led to a different specialisation.

The European Union (EU) has adopted a new development strategy based on “green” growth and announced carbon neutrality by 2050. Still, the EU’s previous development path was mainly based on trade openness and globalization, with positive economic and negative climate impacts. The aim of this paper was to test the hypothesis of globalization-induced carbon emissions in order to evaluate a possible future development path. The Arellano–Bond estimator was employed for dynamic panel analysis in 26 EU countries over the period 2000–2018. A significant and positive relationship was found between economic globalization and passenger mobility and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, while environmental taxes can correct the negative climate effect. On the other hand, social and political dimensions of globalization reduce negative climate impacts. To achieve net zero emissions, the EU needs to continue its global climate leadership, extend the use of environmental taxes, and stimulate economic growth based on low-carbon technologies such as hydrogen, energy storage, and CCUS.

Abstract For some authors (Rodrik, 2015 and 2017) deindustrialization process is premature in sub-Saharan countries. This means that the period of industrialization has been too short, with too little job creation and growth to guarantee a development trajectory. For these authors, the consequences for development are necessarily negative. However, in this work, the economic causes are: the global demand for services is growing faster than the demand for manufactured goods. This growth would leave too few development opportunities for industries in these countries that suffer from narrow domestic markets. Global demand for services and weak domestic demand are the causes of this deindustrialization. However, according to other authors (Loungani et al. 2017), if sub-Saharan African countries (SSA) deindustrialize, they should still be able to benefit from development opportunities through the services sector, which will be a new development path without factories (Ghani and O’Connel, 2014; Dihel and Grover, 2016). This article is part of the controversy. It tests the impacts of different sectors on growth, for a sample of 57 developing countries (Asia, SSA, and Latin America) in a panel data model over the period from 1984 to 2017. Our work shows that the services sector generates few spill-over effects on the income of SSA, which remains highly specialized in low-knowledge-intensive services.

The City

The purpose of this chapter is to present a new development path towards greening the city center of Warsaw in the context of the increasing density of building development in recent years. After the process of urban sprawl, there has been a tendency to concentrate buildings, especially in the city center. Currently, a new idea and the need to improve the climate in the city is being born. The aim is to convert dispersed green areas into a continuous network of corridors and green spaces, comprising the city center on both sides of the Vistula River. The future structure of green areas in the central part of Warsaw will be built as an element of bioeconomy. According to this new pattern of urban greenery, larger green enclaves will be connected by corridors created out of necessity along densely built-up streets. Such elements as green walls, green roofs with decorative greenery and food crops, pocket greenery, as well as urban farms (e.g., algae energy generation) will complement buildings, foster healthy environment, and create the opportunity to enjoy pastimes.

Development Paradigm

It was a great moment when all 193 member countries of United Nations adopted the Agenda for Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to be achieved by 2030. Although it does not seem to be feasible to achieve all the goals by 2030, it is enough at this stage that countries understand the dynamics of the factors operating behind the poor status of the development today and adopt a new development paradigm that has the capacity to reach the SDGs sooner or later. Fortunately, the documents and reports prepared under the SDGs by the UN provide enough material to help countries to develop such a paradigm as well as they give enough flexibility and autonomy to countries for this purpose. The article argues that most countries today are moving on a development path that is far from conducive to the achievement of the SDGs including gender equality and women’s empowerment. Countries have to develop a new development path to reach these goals. The article also highlights the centrality of gender equality in the achievement of the SDGs by discussing the different areas of the SDGs. Finally, the article recommends some building blocks of an alternative development path that has gender equality and women’s empowerment build in it.
