Sustainable Development, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 32(5), P. 4931 - 4945

Published: March 1, 2024

Abstract Environmental degradation, which is seen as the most critical obstacle to sustainable development, addressed by SDGs 7, 11, and 13. The Kyoto Protocol first international agreement solve problem of environmental degradation. purpose this research examine role Annex II nations in promoting sustainability, particularly those that have adopted obligations under Protocol. study tests load capacity curve hypothesis for countries during 1994–2018 period. To begin with, we applied some priori panel data analysis utilized appropriate methods based on results. Unit root, cointegration, long‐run estimators were employed. findings confirmed a relationship model. In end, two different estimators, namely cross‐sectional ARDL augmented mean group estimator, used test validity hypothesis. found while did not hold true all countries, it was only valid Finland. This suggests are adequately contributing achievement targets.

Economies, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 12(4), P. 80 - 80

Published: March 29, 2024

This study examines the complex relation among environmental taxes, productive capacities, urbanization, and their collective effects on quality in Africa, drawing two decades of data from twenty African countries. It situates within broader discourse sustainable development economic growth, emphasizing Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) framework to examine relationship between development, characterized by urban expansion increased adoption taxes amidst continent’s diverse environments. Using advanced econometric techniques, including Cross-Section Augmented Autoregressive Distributed Lag (CS-ARDL) model Dynamic Common Correlated Effects Mean Group (DCCEMG) estimator, addresses challenges such as cross-sectional dependence slope heterogeneity. The results provide important insights into dynamics growth role taxation. proposes tailored policy strategies aimed at strengthening initiatives line with international agreements Paris Agreement Sustainable Development Goals. These advocate for a nuanced application promotion capacities enhance sustainability across continent.

Fossil Fuel CO2 Emissions and Economic Growth in the Visegrád Region: A Study Based on the Environmental Kuznets Curve Hypothesis

Climate, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 12(8), P. 115 - 115

Published: Aug. 7, 2024

The relationship between fossil fuel CO2 emissions and economic growth in the Visegrád (V4) countries (Czechia, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia) is examined through lens of environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) hypothesis. Employing modified (MEKC) hypothesis, time-series data from 2010 to 2022 were analyzed. methodology encompasses a range econometric techniques, including temporal, comparative, correlational, regression analyses, unravel intricate development (measured by GDP per capita) pollution (CO2 emissions). Results reveal complex nonlinear correlation capita V4 countries, following an inverted U-shaped pattern. Specifically, Czechia Hungary exhibited peak at approximately USD 5000 4500 capita, respectively, with corresponding emission levels 1.15 0.64 metric tons. In contrast, Slovakia’s decreased after its exceeded carbon dioxide reached 0.15 However, Poland’s deviate MEKC pattern, exhibiting consistent rise across all capita. study highlights that power industry largest source four contributing 88.09% total emissions. transportation industrial combustion sectors account for about 2.12% 1.28% annual emissions, respectively. GDP–CO2 correlations vary countries. While exhibits positive 0.35, (−0.37), Poland (−0.21), Slovakia (−0.11) display negative relationships. Notably, experiences most significant increase both road transport air traffic. conclusions drawn this provide robust foundation developing tailored policies support sustainable region other transitioning economies.

Rethinking Tax Systems for Sustainable Development Goals

Deleted Journal, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 3(2), P. 108 - 119

Published: April 21, 2025

Taxation plays a pivotal role in advancing sustainable development goals (SDGs), yet its implementation faces several systemic challenges. This narrative review aims to explore the effectiveness of tax policies supporting SDGs through lenses environmental taxation, fiscal incentives, progressive reforms, and digital transformation. A qualitative method was employed synthesize findings from recent empirical comparative studies, focusing on interaction between taxation mechanisms sustainability outcomes. The results highlight that taxes effectively reduce carbon emissions promote energy efficiency, while incentives drive investments renewable by alleviating financial constraints. Progressive contributes income redistribution social justice, particularly low- middle-income countries. Furthermore, institutional quality good governance are crucial enhancing success strategies, with countries exhibiting stronger institutions achieving higher efficiency compliance. digitalization systems, including AI-enabled education, further improves transparency public trust. Despite these benefits, challenges such as system complexity, coordination failures, data limitations hinder optimal realization taxation’s potential. Thus, study recommends integrated policy enhanced engagement, interdisciplinary research strengthen systems instruments for development. These insights provide strategic foundation policymakers aiming align global SDG agenda.

Property Tax Reform and Urban Transformation: Global Perspectives and Policy Implications

Deleted Journal, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 3(2), P. 120 - 132

Published: April 21, 2025

Property tax plays a critical role in urban development, particularly addressing fiscal disparities, guiding land use, and promoting spatial equity. This narrative review explores the evolving of property taxation cities by synthesizing evidence from global case studies policy evaluations. Using data academic databases such as Scopus, JSTOR, Web Science, Google Scholar, literature was collected through targeted keyword searches focused on "property tax," "urban development," "municipal finance." Inclusion criteria emphasized empirical related to policy, governance, outcomes. Findings reveal that well-structured systems can reduce inter-regional inequalities, enhance value improved infrastructure, support inclusive planning. However, systemic barriers poor administrative capacity, fragmented valuation methods, limited public participation hinder effective implementation regimes. Case Ghana, South Korea, Rwanda, China demonstrate innovative reforms, including digital cadastral tools participatory overcome these challenges. Furthermore, progressive models help mitigate gentrification equitable service delivery marginalized communities. The concludes integrated, transparent, are essential for sustainable governance. Future research should examine political economy explore long-term impacts equity markets.
