The political economy of oil and economic diversification: a neglected research field Robert Mabro would certainly like us to revive by Aissaoui, A

“…As far as I am aware, the rationale for the book series was twofold – the obvious one being to make a contribution towards filling a research gap in the field. Given the countries’ importance to the world’s oil (and increasingly gas) markets, deeper insight was needed to form a better understanding of their policies and institutional constraints. …”

Essays on the market for corporate bonds by Levonmaa, A

“…Using intraday transaction data from the TRACE database, I analyse over 1,000 of the most liquid corporate bonds, a total of 9.5 million trades. Drawing on similar studies of other markets, the relationship between returns and order flow is modelled using a vector autoregression, and the information content of a trade is measured as the long-run price impact of a shock to order flow. …”

Local climate action from the middle-out: the social potential of craft guilds to facilitate low-carbon installations in Germany by Wehden, S, Janda, KB, Jansen, J, Creutzig, F

“…However, research on effective governance arrangements targeting this ‘installation bottleneck’ is limited. To fill this gap, we adopt a Middle-Out Perspective (MOP) and use rich qualitative data including in-depth interviews to study the role of craft guilds within Germany's low-carbon transition, particularly in rooftop photovoltaic and heat pump installation. …”

China and the “Singapore Model” : perspectives from mid-level cadres and implications for transnational knowledge transfer by Liu, Hong, Wang, Tingyan

“…Over the past three decades, China has shown tremendous interest in the “Singapore model” through its sending of tens of thousands of cadres to Singapore for executive training and graduate education. Although this phenomenon has been studied, no attention has been drawn to the perspectives of those mid-level cadres who took part in the training and what those perspectives might imply. …”
