Energy and energy consumption play an important role in strategies for socio-economic development of the country. In 1995, Vietnam officially entered the 500 kV North-South transmission power line exploits, with a full length of 1,487 km. The purpose of this study is to investigate the breakpoint and the transition effect of energy consumption to economic growth in Vietnam during the period of 1980-1994, and 1995-2016. The Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) approach and the Bounds test are used to test for the presence of cointegration, whereas the Toda and Yamamoto procedure Granger causality test is used for the direction of causality. The result of the Bounds test validates the existence of cointegration among the included variables. The empirical results provide evidence that energy consumption has a positive impact on the economic growth of Vietnam in the long run. The causality test shows that there is bi-directional causality between energy consumption and economic growth, supported feedback hypothesis. There is a breakpoint in 1995 and the contribution of energy consumption in economic growth in the period of 1995-2016 is lower than the stage 1980-1994. This study suggests Government authorities explore new sources of energy to achieve sustainable economic development in the long run.

본 연구에서는 우리나라의 제조업을 대상으로 에너지소비, 생산, 수출의 상호 인과관계를 분석하였다. 우리나라 제조업을 9개 산업으로 나누어 1991년부터 2013년까지 패널 데이터를 구축하여 VECM 방법론과 더불어 Demitrescu and Hurlin (2012)에 의해서 개발된 패널 Granger causality test 방법을 사용하였다. 분석결과에 의하면, 생산에서 에너지소비로, 수출에서 에너지소비로의 Granger Causality가 존재하였다. 하지만 그 역으로는 Granger Causality가 성립하지 않았다. 따라서 제조업부문의 에너지절약정책은 생산이나 수출에 역효과를 발생하지 않으면서 추진될 수 있다는 Qzturk (2010)의 보존가설을 지지하고 있다. 장기적으로는 생산, 에너지소비, 수출, 노동, 자본 간에 장기 공적분관계가 존재하며, 장기균형관계에서 에너지소비가 생산의 증가에 기여하는 것으로 나타났다.

This study applies the cointegration theory to analyse the causality of the prices between imported fisheries and domestic fisheries in distribution channel. We've focused on the prices of import, wholesale and retail about the frozen Alaska pollack, hairtail and croaker which take up high portion and are popular among most of the consumers. In process of analysis, the unit root test was adopted to find the stability of time series data prior to the cointegration test. If the time series data was found as stable one in unit root test, we should analyse the VAR model. If unstable, the cointegratioin test was adopeted to find the long-run equilibrium relationship between the data. When the long-run equilibrium relationship was found among the price of the import, wholesale and retail price, the VECM model was adoped. If not, the differenced VAR model was adopted. The main findings of this study could be summarized as follows ; First, according to the result of the analysis on VAR model, time series data of frozen Alaska pollack was found as stable and has causality relationship and close effect was existing among the import, wholesale and retail price. Second, the data of frozen hairtail was found as an unstable one in unit root test and the result of cointegration test showed the long-run equilibrium relationship at lag 1. From the results of VECM model, we could find that the coefficient of error correction is effective, and the sign is negative(-). It means that the existence of adjustment tendency to long-run equilibrium after a short-run deviation. But the short-run causality of the prices were not found except the price of wholesale. Third, according to the results of differenced VAR model, data from frozen croaker did not have the stability and long-run equilibrium. Moreover, it was found that the import price has a weak causality on the retail price. Because of having difficulties in collecting data, the result of this paper could not explain the relationship among the prices of import, wholesale and retail perfectly. However, it more or less contributed to a long-lasted debate on the direction of causality of price-setting in academic research and provided a useful guide for the policy makers in charge of the price-setting of fisheries products as well.

The purpose of the study to evaluate the contribution of foreign direct investment (FDI) and tourism receipts (TR) to Sri Lanka's gross domestic product (GDP). This study employs time series annual data for the period from 1978 to 2016 and EViews 10 econometrics software was used for the time series data analysis. Unit root test was done on the variables and the method chosen was the Augmented Dicky - Fuller test. Co-integration analysis was used for the long run relationship and the Granger causality test was performed to investigate the causal relationship. Recently a more conducive environment has been established after the three decade long ethnic war came to an end. In this context, the Sri Lankan government has taken positive measures to attract foreign direct investment and boost tourism in the country. This study intends to evaluate the contribution of Sri Lanka, as these two factors are considered to be very effective at increasing the GDP of a country. The empirical study shows that there is a positive and statistically significant relationship between the variable's TR and FDI to the GDP in the long run. Results of Granger causality test implied that the two-way causality promoted the economic growth of Sri Lanka.

The paper aims to test long-term and short-term causality from four exchange rates, the Korean won/$US, the Korean won/Euro, the Korean won/Japanese yen, and the Korean won/Chinese yuan, to the Korea Composite Stock Price Index in the presence of several macroeconomic variables using monthly data from January 1986 to June 2018. The results of Johansen cointegration tests show that there exists at least one cointegrating equation, which indicates that long-run causality from an exchange rate to the Korean stock market will exist. The results of vector error correction estimates show that: for long-term causality, the coefficient of the error correction term is significant with a negative sign, that is, long-term causality from exchange rates to the Korean stock market is observed. For short-term causality, the coefficient of the Japanese yen exchange rate is significant with a positive sign, that is, short-term causality from the Japanese yen exchange rate to the Korean stock market is observed. The coefficient of the financial crises i.e. 1997-1999 Asian financial crisis and 2007-2008 global financial crisis on the endogenous variables in the model and the Korean economy is significant. The result indicates that the financial crises have considerably affected the Korean economy, especially a negative effect on money supply.

Colombo noticeably became the most economical gateway to the Indian subcontinent, in terms of cost as well as time. The Colombo Port Expansion Project (CPEP) started commencement with the purpose of accommodating mega ships, under the long-term strategies of making Colombo the hub of South Asia. In this context, the purpose of this study is to investigate the causal relationship between Indian ports' originated container traffic, and total transshipments of the port of Colombo, and also to identify the nature of the causality between the two variables, evaluating Granger causality test results. It finds unidirectional causality from total transshipments of Colombo to Indian ports' originated transshipments in the port of Colombo. It suggested that ongoing port expansion projects, opening up for new markets and attracting new shipping lines in the port of Colombo, have generated significant impact on Indian ports' container traffic, via the port of Colombo. Findings would be valuable for future forecasting of container traffic in Colombo port and the policy-making process in the port as well.

본 연구에서는 Pfister 등 (2019)에서 제시된 시계열 데이터에 대해서 시간이 지나도 불변하는 인과성(invariant causality)을 갖는 변수를 찾는 방법에 대해서 설명하고자 한다. 시계열에서 주로 이용되는 Granger causality 방법은 인과 관계를 찾기 보다는 선행한 사건과 추후에 일어나는 사건과의 연관성을 찾는 방법이며, 때로는 허위 연관성의 결과를 산출하기도 한다. Chow 검정은 고정된 모형에 대해서 특정 시점 전후의 차이를 검정하는데 이용된다. 기존 방법은 높은 설명을 갖는 모형을 찾는데 중점을 두었는데, 이러한 모형은 환경의 변화에 따라 같은 모형이 유지되지 않을 가능성이 있다. Pfister 등 (2019)에서 제시된 모형은 설명변수와 종속변수 간의 조건부 관계를 찾는데 중점을 두고 있기 때문에, 환경의 변화에도 불변하는 인과성을 찾는데 유용하게 이용될 수 있다. 특히, 거시 경제 데이터는 측정하기 어려운 많은 변수로 인해 설명력이 높은 모형을 찾는 것이 어렵기 때문에, 기존 방법을 이용하기 보다는 Pfister 등 (2019)의 모형을 적용하는 것이 의미가 있다. 본 연구에서는 Pfister 등 (2019)가 제시한 방법을 이용하여 원 달러 환율에 불변하는 인과성을 갖는 거시경제 변수를 찾고자 한다.

본 연구는 지식창출활동에 초점을 두고 투입요소인 연구개발비와 연구인력, 그리고 지식창출활동을 통해 최종 성과로 나타나는 지역경제성장간의 동태적 인과관계를 분석하는데 목적을 두었다. 1998-2008년 동안 16개 광역시 도를 포함하는 Panel-VAR모형을 사용하였으며, 특허 생산성이 높은 지역과 특허 생산성이 낮은 지역을 구분하여 네 변수간의 인과관계를 추정하였다. 그랜저 인과분석을 수행한 결과 연구개발비와 연구인력은 특허출원에, 그리고 특허출원은 GRDP에 유의미한 인과관계를 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 이러한 인과관계는 일방향이 아니라 양방향으로의 인과관계가 나타나고 있어 순환적 피드백 인과구조를 갖고 있다고 풀이할 수 있다. 이러한 경향은 특허 생산성이 높은 지역에서 더욱 뚜렷하게 나타났으며 특허 생산성이 낮은 지역에서는 연구개발비와 GRDP 간에 일방향의 인과관계가 나타났다. 이와 같이 두 지역 간에 다소 다른 인과관계 패턴이 나타난다는 점은 두 지역의 혁신역량을 향상시키려는 지역혁신정책도 차별화되어야 할것임을 시사해준다. 앞으로 지역경쟁력을 제고시키려는 지역정책의 초점도 특허 생산성을 높일 수 있도록 유도하며, 연구 개발결과가 단지 지식창출활동에 그치지 않고 창출된 지식이 실질적인 경제성장을 가져올 수 있도록 지역 내 혁신 인프라를 구축하는데 두어야 할 것이다.

In this paper we explore the two analyses to know the urbanization effect on trade. First, the granger causality test to examine the relationship between trade and urbanization. The Granger causality test is a statistical hypothesis test for determining whether one time series is useful for forecasting another. The results indicated that the existence of a bidirectional causality running from trade to urbanization when six lags were applied. When eight lags were applied, we found unidirectional causality running from urbanization to trade. Second, gravity models were used to investigate the urbanization effect on trade. The production cost and specification are affected by the economies of scale, and the economies of scale increased as the greater geographically agglomeration. However, the gravity model to explain the bilateral trade flows ignores the urbanization variables. Therefore we added the urbanization variable represented as the geographically agglomeration into gravity model. The results show that the degree of urbanization of both countries has statistically positive effect on trade (export and import) and the bigger coefficients of trade partner's urbanization. The reason is that the trade share of industrial supplies, intermediate goods and capital goods is much higher than finished consumer goods. The urbanization is more important the improved the efficiency of production than demand market.
