<span><p class="TTPAbstract"><span lang="EN-US">As the co-integration theory is introduced, this research attempts to explore the relationship between economic growth and electric consumption based on co-integration theory in Jilin province. The data we use comes from the economic and electricity data in Jilin Province during 1978 to 2013. The analysis results show that a long-term stable equilibrium relationship between electricity consumption and economic growth in Jilin province is existing. Based on the Granger causality analysis, we find that there is no Granger causality between electricity consumption and economic growth in Jilin Province.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Using annual data over the period 1980–2014, this paper attempts to provide an answer to the question of whether fiscal consolidation promotes growth and employment in the context of the PIIGGS countries (Portugal, Ireland, Italy, Greece, Great Britain, and Spain) by using the Bootstrap Granger causality analysis proposed by Kónya (2006), which allows testing for causality on each individual country separately, and by accounting for dependence across countries. Our findings indicate that in no country considered does fiscal consolidation promote growth. However, fiscal consolidation negatively affects employment in Portugal and Italy, whereas it positively influences employment in Great Britain. Based on our findings, we may suggest that the effects of fiscal consolidation on employment produce mixed results, varying from country to country.
