abstract oil export revenues have a major share in both iranian government incomes and gross domestic product (gdp). with regard to the importance of agricultural sector in economic growth, rural development and rural welfare improvement, this sector indubitably influenced by temporary and unexpected shocks in oil export. therefore we employed feder(1982) and auto-regressive distributed lag (ar...

In this paper the concept of tax co-ordination within the European Union (EU) is discussed, in view of the coming enlargement of the EU. The tax externalities that possibly arise in a single market are analysed, as well as the ways these externalities can be prevented or internalised. These theoretical reflections are placed alongside the actual system of tax co-ordination within the EU. Focusi...

The paper focuses on regional trade agreements and economic co-operation and develops a new appropriate approach to study their impact on growth and trade. The approach is based on an endogenous trade-growth theory and novelly specified in an economic integration (expenditure) framework which is the conceptual foundation of regional trade agreements. Importantly, it also appropriately takes int...

 Up to now, the impact of real exchange rate on the non-oil exports of Iran has been mainly on focus. However, the more important aspect of the fluctuations in exchange rate is its degree of volatility which can have profound effect on the non-oil exports. Hence, the main objective of this paper is to investigate the linkage between non-oil exports and the real exchange rate volatility for Iran...

abstract this study investigates casual relationship between co2 emission and gross domestic product per capita in five different country groups, using cross- country data for the period 1960-2007. to achieve the purpose, the co- integration test and error correction models are applied. results confirm casual relationships between the two variables. a unilateral relationship between gdp and co2...

mfi-type zeolite membranes (zsm-5) were prepared on α-alumina tubular supports and tested for separation of h2/co mixtures. the effect of pressure and temperature on h2 and co flows and selectivity was investigated. the best results in this work were obtained with a zsm-5 membrane prepared over a porous α-alumina tube seeded with zeolite nanocrystals synthesized with microwave technique. in thi...

in this paper, using kakwani-son method, price elasticity of poverty is calculated for taxed edible goods in the year 2004. this elasticity shows the total effect of price changes on poverty. the total effect is the sum of redistribution and income effects of price change. in fact, the redistribution effect tells us whether an increase in the price of a commodity hurts the poor more than the ri...
