During the COVID-19 pandemic, many things changed in people’s educational lives as individuals transitioned to remote learning. While technologically advanced countries swiftly adapted to the new normal, less developed countries encountered substantial obstacles. This study aimed to compare distance education practices during the lockdown in four O...
This research employs a fixed effect model to empirically estimate panel data from 37 OECD countries spanning 2000 to 2021, revisiting the influence of government R&D expenditure on innovation within the theory of marginal diminishing effect. Results reveal a significant positive effect of government R&D expenditure on national innovation capacity,...
The use of low-carbon energy in power grids is essential for minimizing negative effects on the environment. Energy consumption causes environmental damage to the OECD’s economy. This study aims to investigate the effect of energy consumption, population, and GDP on CO2 emissions using panel data from 17 OECD countries over the period 2000–2023. We...
Carbon dioxide emissions from the transport sector make a significant contribution to global greenhouse gases, and understanding the factors that influence these emissions is beneficial for devising effective emission reduction policies. Oil prices are an important influencing factor since the fuel used in the transport sector is primarily based on...

This paper addresses the controversial issue of the direct and indirect effects of public R&D on growth. We look at six variables of R&D-driven growth jointly for 14 OECD countries using methods of dynamic systems for panel data analysis: GDP, technical change, domestic and foreign businesses and public R&D. Cointegration tests suggest four long-ru...
Rapid urbanization and economic growth in OECD member nations have intensified environmental challenges, notably the rise in carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. Despite significant research on urbanization and growth, there is little knowledge of how these factors interact with green innovation to affect CO2 emissions. This study addresses this gap by ...
The growing discourse surrounding biomass energy’s environmental ramifications has ignited debate among policymakers. While biomass remains a primary and readily accessible energy source, various studies have extensively examined its implications for health and the economy. However, there is a lack of evidence regarding its role in mitigating clima...
The article analyses the latest international tax law developments in dispute resolution settlement protocols and the need for effective multilateral solutions to prevent international double taxation. While several treaties currently minimise the risks of international double taxation, more must be achieved to provide judicial remedies in cases wh...
In the last decade, a growing demand for sustainable cosmetic ingredients has yielded numerous biodegradation protocols. While OECD (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development) aquatic assays are suitable for water-borne chemicals, it is crucial for the personal care industry to consider the persistence of plastics in soil, compost, and...
