- Summary:
- "This book, edited by Raufhon Salahodjaev, brings together a valuable collection of empirical studies that explore the intersection of human capital, energy consumption, and sustainable development across diverse regions. This book offers fresh insights into the complex relationship between economic growth, energy utilization, and global sustainability efforts, with a particular focus on cross-country data and analysis. The book opens with an in-depth investigation of electricity consumption and its role in driving economic growth. Subsequent chapters expand on this theme by addressing the impact of renewable energy consumption in the context of economic globalization and exploring how foreign direct investment (FDI) influences sustainable development. Several chapters examine the crucial role of social policies and technology in fostering sustainable development. One study investigates how inclusive trade policies can promote equity and social welfare in emerging economies, while another evaluates the diffusion of the internet and its impact on environmental performance. The relationship between individualism and environmental outcomes is explored, providing unique cross-country evidence on the cultural factors that shape environmental policy. With its diverse range of topics and rigorous empirical methods, this book is essential reading for scholars, policymakers, and anyone interested in understanding the critical linkages between energy, human capital, and sustainable development in today's global economy. It provides valuable evidence for shaping future energy and economic policies that foster global sustainability and development"-- Provided by publisher.
