The notes in memory of Giorgio Lunghini deal with his approach to economic theory and in particular with his investigation of the causes of the great economic crisis of the 2007-2013 years. He identifies four main causes of the crisis: 1) the financialization of the world economy; 2) the growing debt of the private and public sectors; 3) the global trade and capital movement imbalances (in USA, Asia, South America and Europe); the existence of countries which are in a structural trade deficit and surplus; the sharp division between debtor and creditor countries; 4) the role of economic theory e in particular the return to the laissez-faire doctrine and liberalism (monetarism; the critiques to “bastard” Keynesians rather than Keynes who, in Lunghini’s view, is not a Keynesian); the return to the “Treasury view”, the “Washington consensus” and “Bruxelles consensus”. In the Notes, these four causes are analysed in detail.

The paper reviews an evolution of key political and economic hypotheses in the literature from 1993 to 2007 related to emergence, stability and correction mechanisms of the so-called "global imbalances" which are connected to the US trade deficit. The special "counterweighting" role of sovereign wealth funds in possible mechanisms of global imbalances’ correction in medium- and long-term perspective is considered.

The article analyzes the dynamics of consumption of primary energy and production of electrical energy in the world for 1973-2012 and the volume of renewable energy. It is shown that in the crisis year of 20 0 9 there was a significant reduction in primary energy consumption and production of electrical energy. At the same time, renewable energy has developed rapidly, well above the rate of the world economy growth. The development of renewable energy is one of the most effective ways out of the crisis, taking into account its production regime, energy, environmental, social and economic efficiency. The forecast for the development of renewable energy for the period up to 2020, compiled by the IEA, is analyzed. It is shown that its assessment rates are conservative; the authors justify higher rates of development of renewable energy.

The author compares several quantitative and qualitative approaches to forecasting to find appropriate methods to incorporate technological change in long-range forecasts of the world economy. A?number of long-run forecasts (with horizons over 10 years) for the world economy and national economies is reviewed to outline advantages and drawbacks for different ways to account for technological change. Various approaches based on their sensitivity to data quality and robustness to model misspecifications are compared and recommendations are offered on the choice of appropriate technique in long-run forecasts of the world economy in the presence of technological change.

Abstract Motivation The epidemic at the beginning of this year, due to a new virus in the coronavirus family, is causing many deaths and is bringing the world economy to its knees. Moreover, situations of this kind are historically cyclical. The symptoms and treatment of infected patients are, for better or worse even for new viruses, always the same: more or less severe flu symptoms, isolation and full hygiene. By now man has learned how to manage epidemic situations, but deaths and negative effects continue to occur. What about technology? What effect has the actual technological progress we have achieved? In this review, we wonder about the role of robotics in the fight against COVID. It presents the analysis of scientific articles, industrial initiatives and project calls for applications from March to now highlighting how much robotics was ready to face this situation, what is expected from robots and what remains to do. Results The analysis was made by focusing on what research groups offer as a means of support for therapies and prevention actions. We then reported some remarks on what we think is the state of maturity of robotics in dealing with situations like COVID-19.

We extend the dynamic Heckscher–Ohlin model in Bond et al. [Economic Theory(48, 171–204, 2011)] and show that if the labor-intensive good is inferior, then there may exist multiple steady states in autarky and poverty traps can arise. Poverty traps for the world economy, in the form of Pareto-dominated steady states, are also shown to exist. We show that the opening of trade can have the effect of pulling the initially poorer country out of a poverty trap, with both countries having steady state capital stocks exceeding the autarky level. However, trade can also pull an initially richer country into a poverty trap. These possibilities are a sharp contrast with dynamic Heckscher–Ohlin models with normality in consumption, where the country with the larger (smaller) capital stock than the other will reach a steady state where the level of welfare is higher (lower) than in the autarkic steady state.

The outbreak of Covid-19 disease since late 2019 has led to fundamental changes in the process of globalization and liberalization of the world economy. In order to prevent the spread of this disease and control its negative consequences, many countries have implemented policies such as urban quarantine, cutting off passenger communication with neighboring countries and the world, closing tourist and tourist places, and implementing policies to protect domestic industries. In general, it led to the phenomenon of reverse globalization. According to the development of new economic convergence, which is based on the role of the market in economic relations between countries can play an important role in improving the productive capacity of countries in a region and create economic integration in different parts of the world. Such a state of integration in different parts of the world could be the solution to the process of globalization and in the post-Corona era, the concept of “one for all, all for one” was created at the regional and global level. As policy implications, the paper recommended some points to make a greater integration between Iran and Russia in the region

This article deals with changes of a spatial structure of the world economy, which has complex and heterogeneous hierarchy. It specifies that multipurposeness and complex structuring are becoming global signs of regionalization proc­esses and highlights the enhanced role of regional competitiveness within the context of global transformation. The emphasis is laid upon the objectiveness of the global regionalization process, which characterizes processes of the world economy development whilst global regions are becoming its main system ele­ments. This paper stresses that global regionalization development is reflected through a new global space structure. It suggests a methodic toolbox of compre­hensive assessment of regional integration development processes with due consideration of various aspects (trade, industrial and market integration), which provides for a comparative analysis of global regions' development or of certain integration associations according to the development level of integration proc­esses on the basis of suggested integrated index.
