...Devesh Singh; Viktorija Cohen Purpose This study aims to quantify the concept of Industry 5.0, with a focus on human-centricity in the manufacturing sector. Design/methodology/approach The panel nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag method is applied to assess asymmetry and vulnerability...

... the recent turmoil presented by the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) and the Greek Economic Crisis (GEC). Treating the EU as a single entity, is necessary for the formulation of an effective, common, EU trade policy. This study concentrates on the manufacturing sector to examine existing opportunities...

... a panel data in this study is likely to be reasonably good compared to surveys/censuses in other developing economies of similar income levels. At the time of data compilation, data were available for ten years from 2000 to 2009. For the purposes of this analysis, manufacturing is defined to cover all...

...Kishor Sharma Most studies of intra‐industry trade (IIT) in manufacturing exclude the processed food sub‐sector (standard international trade classification (SITC) subgroups 0‐1) from their analysis on the grounds that trade in this category is predominantly determined by the availability...

... for the top five manufactured exports to the USA and the EU, and the top four in the case of Japan. Findings emphasise the magnitude of the structural transformation which occurred over this period as the emerging DAEs such as Malaysia and Thailand became more competitive across a broad range of manufactured...

...Chulho Jung; Khosrow Doroodian Hourly labor costs in the manufacturing sector of seven EC countries, the USA and Canada are used to test the factor price convergence (FPC) by employing Johansen’s multivariate cointegration tests. We also examine if there is a two‐way causality in wages between two...

...R. MacDonald; P.D. Murphy Examines the behaviour of UK employment in manufacturing over the period 1964 to 1986. The use of cointegration techniques allows the separation of a long‐run equilibrium relationship for employment from its short‐run dynamics. The estimated model demonstrates a high...

... framework to analyse the performance effects of divisionalization, adopts a dynamic approach, thereby allowing the intertemporal nature of any such performance benefits to be examined. Presents results from the UK manufacturing industry; the model estimated uses a spline function to incorporate differing...
