Book World Development Report 1981

Download or read book World Development Report 1981 written by and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1981 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the fourth in the World Bank's annual series assessing key development issues. Adjustment, global and national, to promote sustainable growth in the changing world economy is the main theme of this report. Recession and inflation in the industrial countries, together with the rise in oil prices, have been the main forces at work in the world economy in the 1970s. The report examines their effect on developing countries to see how adjustment has been managed and what lessons may be learned for the 1980s. Adjustment occurs through international trade and capital flows and through changes in national production and consumption patterns. The earlier chapters of the report present global and regional projections for the 1980s and consider international aspects of adjustment in trade, energy and finance. It then turns to adjustment problems of different groups of developing countries and a consideration of the prospects for human development. The report also includes the 1981 World Development Indicators, a set of 25 tables of economic and social indicators for 124 countries.

Book 3rd Annual Meeting of the Portuguese Association of Energy Economics   5th Meeting of Environmental and Energy Economics

Download or read book 3rd Annual Meeting of the Portuguese Association of Energy Economics 5th Meeting of Environmental and Energy Economics written by Lígia Pinto and published by UMinho Editora. This book was released on 2019-12-20 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 3rd Annual Conference of the Portuguese Association of Energy Economics – APEEN and the International Meeting on Energy and Environmental Economics – ME3 took place on the 18-19 October 2018 in Braga, Portugal. The event was hosted by the Universidade do Minho and gathered the contributions of specialists in Energy and Environmental Economics to enrich the debate about the many issues raised by the management of resources and waste. The main topic was Managing Resources and Waste: challenges for Energy and Environmental Economics beyond 2030. ​Natural resources are the keystone in environmental and energy economics. Nowadays, resource management cannot ignore waste, traditionally seen as a by-product of consumption and production decisions, but increasingly recognized as a source of energy or as new type of resource. ​The APEEN & ME3 joint conference had over 50 presentations from researchers from all over the world and lively discussions. Some of these presentations are summarized in the short papers compiled in this Book of Proceedings. We are grateful to have had the presence and contribution of the keynote speakers: Maria L. Loureiro (Universidade de Santiago de Compostela) and Martin Brocklehurst (Kempley Green Consultants). Their speeches challenged us now to think of new research and business opportunities beyond 2030. On behalf of the organizing committee, I thank our sponsor, LIPOR, and all presenters for their academic excellence and lively participation. Lígia Pinto, Universidade do Minho

Book Price Elasticities of Demand for Motor Gasoline and Other Petroleum Products

Download or read book Price Elasticities of Demand for Motor Gasoline and Other Petroleum Products written by Terry H. Morlan and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research results for short-term and long-term petroleum elasticities are summarized, and existing Energy Information Administration (EIA) models of energy demand are used to develop estimates of price response for 1-, 3-, 5-, and 10-year intervals. In the short-run, elasticities reported for most petroleum products in most end-uses generally range from -.1 to -.4 although the numerous research estimates for gasoline demand elasticity are clustered in the more elastic range of -.1 to -.3. EIA models used in this analysis fall within these ranges and tend toward the higher (in absolute terms) end of the elasticity range. In transportation uses, for which most of the research has centered on gasoline, petroleum demand has been shown to be less responsive to price than the other sectors, with long-term gasoline estimates generally falling in the range of -.3 to -.9. In investigating the price sensitivity for periods up to 10 years using the EIA Demand Analysis System, petroleum product elasticities in all sectors are typically between -.4 and -.1. For automobile gasoline demand, the greatest proportion of the 10-year price response is manifested in increased cutbacks in travel. The model studies show that, given continued increases in the price of oil, the proportion of consumer budgets as well as industrial production costs allocated for petroleum products will increase; that petroleum prices will be volatile in instances of temporary oil shortages; and that market forces can achieve long-term conservation of petroleum, but at the cost of greater proportional increases in oil prices.

Book The Econometrics of Energy Demand

Download or read book The Econometrics of Energy Demand written by William A. Donnelly and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1987-07-13 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The energy crisis is the background for this insightful volume, which brings together several important strands of energy modeling work into an integrated unit. The Econometrics of Energy Demand successfully ties together, within a general policy-modeling context, models which assist in developing policy alternatives, as well as those which incorporate variables over which the decision-maker may exercise control. The process of model development includes: problem indentification; model selection; database construction; implementation and documentation.
