CO emissions and global value chains indicators:new evidence for 1995-2018.

Globalization and the configuration of production processes around Global Value Chains (GVCs) have become key factors for explaining the recent evolution of environmental and economic indicators. Indeed, previous research found evidence on the significant impact of GVCs indicators (participation and position) on CO emissions. Additionally, results obtained in previous literature vary depending on the time period and geographical areas considered.

The role of the agricultural sector in Ghanaian development: a multiregional SAM-based analysis.
