Modern Chinese History

Many important issues in modern Chinese history are crucially affected by the magnitude and pattern of economic growth up to 1937. Despite the work of John Key Chang and more recently Thomas Rawski, however, we still know all too little about the quantitative aspects of that growth. All scholars of the period are greatly indebtedto Chang's pioneering and indispensame work on industrial production but, as he himself points out, his index remains tentative and exploratory. Although the compilation of a definitive new index will eventually depend on work by scholars in China, to my knowledge this has not yet got under way. Wherever compiled, any index of industrial output as a whole, or even of national income, will have to be based on better series for individual industries. In such a context, this research note builds on Chang's work by offering a revision of the output series for one very important and rapidly growing industry in pre-1937 China, the electric power industry.

This study aims to determine the amount of electric power needs each year in South Sulawesi until 2025. This estimation aims to determine the large power needs of South Sulawesi until 2025 by using the DKL 3.02 method used to estimate the need for electric power in the future based on data the use of energy and electric power, population growth, and economic growth in South Sulawesi Province, namely the GDP of South Sulawesi Province from previous years before the estimated year. The estimated results of the total electricity demand for all sectors from 2015 amounted to 2,452,130,065 VA and up to the year 2025 amounted to 5,246,811,618 VA with an average growth of 7.48%.

Abstract This paper examines to what extent export concentration can be tailored towards promoting economic growth in Nigeria. A deeper understanding of the interrelationship among various sectorial units, as well as the investment channel that better stimulates the economy is the thrust of this paper. As a consequence, the study wants to answer to the question whether it “is there any linkage between export concentration, and various sectorial output share (agricultural, manufacturing, and service sector) on growth performance?”. The methodology we made use of is a Vector Autoregressive (VAR) model for the various sectoral analysis of export concentration in Nigeria. The estimated results show that export concentration has an important role to play in driving economic growth and that this role emanates from the Agricultural and manufacturing sectoral channels. These channels account for about 93 percent and over 3 percent respectively of the total variation of export concentration contribution to economic growth. The result also indicates that one standard deviation shock to export concentration results in a peak on agricultural sector quarterly after shock. As a result, the study recommends that government ought to make available incentive to the agricultural sector to further enhance the contribution of the sector to the economic growth in the Nigeria economy.

This study examined the effect of electric power transmission and distribution losses (ETL) on economic growth over the period of 1971 to 2012 in Ghana. Using bounds testing approach to cointegration and Bai-Perron test in ordinary least squares framework, we find long-run relationship between ETL, gross capital formation, inflation, trade openness and economic growth. Secondly, while ETL do not have robust impact on economic growth, trade openness exerts a positive impact on economic growth in the long-run. Inflation and gross capital formation, however, have mixed relationships with economic growth. Furthermore, ETL yield a threshold value of 2.07. Finally, controlling for the urban population reveals that ETL moderates the relationship between urbanization and economic growth; higher ETL associates with an increasing negative effect on GDP per capita.

This paper proposes a hybrid model for evaluating the effectiveness of new and old kinetic energy conversion (NOKEC), China’s major strategic move aiming to transform the mode of economic growth and improvie the quality of economic development. Considering the goals of NOKEC and the supporting roles of power industry to NOKEC, this paper constructs an index system for NOKEC effectiveness evaluation from an electric power economics perspective, involving three dimensions and 17 secondary indicators. Furthermore, a hybrid evaluation model based on DEMATEL-ANP and DQ-GRA techniques is developed to accomplish the evaluation of Shandong’s NOKEC effectiveness. The results show that Shandong’s NOKEC effectiveness increased from 2015–2017, indicating that Shandong’s NOKEC policies have achieved remarkable results. According to the evaluation results, this paper puts forward the indicators that should be paid close attention to and the following work priorities in Shandong’s future NOKEC process, which has certain practical value for the promotion of Shandong’s NOKEC. In addition, the evaluation model proposed in this paper considers the interrelationships between indicators and overcomes the shortcomings of traditional GRA, showing good applicability to similar effectiveness evaluation issues. Finally, the limitations and universality of the model are discussed and the improvement direction is put forward.
