This article aims to provide evidence that Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and human development play an important role in pursuing a demographic dividend and accelerating economic welfare in Indonesia by exploiting provincial data from 2012 to 2017. The empirical evidence implemented in this research is Two-Stage Least Squares and dynamic system Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) techniques. The results show that a 1%-point rise in ICT development growth potentially leads to an approximately 0.24%-point increase in economic welfare growth, whereas an in life expectancy may decrease GDP per capita. The analysis also finds that a 1%-point increase in the ratio of the participation rate will promote a nearly 0.16%-point rise in per capita output. Meanwhile, a 1%-point increase in the share of the working-age population will generate roughly 0.19%-point rise in per capita income. A recent paper suggests that policymakers have to promote more supportive ICT and human development policies to pursue a demographic dividend since even though they have a positive impact on per capita income, the magnitude remains relatively low.

This study aims to identify the effects of foreign remittances on school enrolment and the educational expenditures of children in the Peshawar district. Primary data were acquired by simple random sampling and a questionnaire. Correspondingly, the logit approach and Heckman selection theory were utilized to examine school enrolment and educational expenses. The marginal effects were evaluated to determine the co-efficient. The study's findings indicate that Per Capita Remittances (PCRM) have a highly substantial and beneficial effect on children's school attendance, with a (10.8%) point increase in school enrolment for every 100 rupees rises in Per Capita Remittances (PCRM). Suppose a household's Per Capita Income (PCIM) improves by one hundred rupees, the probability of children enrolling in school increases by (0.17). The results indicate that PCRM and educational costs per kid are significantly and positively correlated. Educational spending per child increases by 12.01 rupees for every 100 rupees rise in family remittances per capita, whereas every 100 rupees increase in per capita income increases educational expenditure per kid by (8.38 PKR). Which leads to an 8.38 % marginal propensity to spend on child education.

In this study, we examine the role of export diversification in the convergence of per capita income (output). By applying the dynamic system Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) estimator to a panel dataset consisting of 95 countries, we find evidence of both absolute and conditional divergence for the full sample and the subsamples based on income and regions. Thus, our findings suggest that, although high export diversification boosts the per capita income (output), it does not significantly reduce per capita income (output) gap between rich and poor countries.

Economic Development is a process of increasing total income and income per capita by contributing to population growth and fundamental changes in the economic structure of a country and income ranking for the population of a country. Indonesia's development should be for the development of Indonesia's human resources, so that the use of per capita income indicators is not only an indicator of the success of Indonesia's development. Regarding the matters in question above, the use of Human Development Indicators (HDI) becomes relevant.

In this paper, we assess the economic benefits of demographic changes in India by employing econometric models and robustness checks based on panel data gathered over a period of more than three decades. Our analysis highlights four key points. First, the contribution of India’s demographic dividend is estimated to be around 1.9 percentage points out of 12% average annual growth rate in per capita income during 1981–2015. Second, India’s demographic window of opportunity began in 2005, significantly improved after 2011, and will continue till 2061. Third, our empirical analysis supports the argument that the realisation of the demographic dividend is conditional on a conducive policy environment with enabling aspects such as quality education, good healthcare, decent employment opportunities, good infrastructure, and gender empowerment. Fourth, the working-age population in India contributes around one-fourth of the inequality in per capita income across states. Thus, to reap the maximum dividends from the available demographic window of opportunity, India needs to work towards enhancing the quality of education and healthcare in addition to providing good infrastructure, gender empowerment, and decent employment opportunities for the growing working-age population.

In many countries, include Indonesia, a centralized government has a sizeable negative impact on inequality of development. During the New Regime Order era with a centralized system, Indonesia's development is concentrated in the western part of Indonesia which had led to inequality in terms of per capita income and human development. To solve these problems, one of the economic reforms undertaken by the Indonesia government is changes the system from a centralized to a decentralized system. Through the fiscal decentralization under Law No. 22/99 and 25/99, they hope to improve people's welfare and reduce inequality. This research is aim to assess the effect of government spending and investment on the growth of per capita income and see the effect of the growth of per capita income towards Human Development Index (HDI). The method used is multiple regression with panel data and the study from year 2007-2012 by dividing the two groups of regions ie: western Indonesia and central&eastern Indonesia. Based on the research results, for the western Indonesia, goods and services expenditure has a significant effect on the per capita income growth and per capita income growth significantly affect the human development index (HDI). For the central and eastern Indonesia, domestic and foreign direct investment (DDI and FDI), goods and services expenditure, and capital expenditures have a significant effect toward per capita income growth and per capita income growth effect significantly toward the HDI.

The current study attempts to explore the determinants of CO2 emissions per capita considering spatial effects for a panel of 21 North American countries. The results corroborate the existence of spatial dependence in per capita carbon dioxide emissions and its determinants. Adverse environmental spillover effects are found for all hypothesized determinants while per capita income showed a positive impact. Furthermore, the existence of environmental Kuznets curve hypothesis is proven with a turning point of 15,665 constant U.S. dollar per capita income, and 6 of the 21 investigated countries are found at the second stage of an inverted U-shaped relationship. An inverted U-shaped relationship between trade openness and carbon dioxide emissions per capita has also been found. Financial market development (foreign direct investment) seems to have monotonic positive (negative) effects.

The Relationship

The article presents results of a study on influence of population dynamics, regional characteristics and the type structure of income on consumption. The ability to investigate spatial dependencies and territorial effects over time was made possible by autoregression spatial models built on panel data. The article describes features of such models, sequence of calculations, and also presents modified tests to justify the choice of the model specification.Calculations were made using data from 83 constituent entities of the Russian Federation (cross-sectional observations) for 2010–2019 (10 time periods). The analysis showed that both population income and retail turnover, which largely determine the level and structure of population consumption, have spatial dependencies. The built spatial error model with fixed effects showed a positive influence on population consumption in the neighboring territories. The model also confirmed previously identified relationships: the positive impact of average per capita income and the negative impact of the Gini index on consumption. The built model with fixed effects allowed to isolate the individual effects of the territories, visualized using cartogram. On the basis of these assessments, several groups of territories with common properties and characteristics have been identified.Unlike previously built models, the authors’ spatial error autoregression model, built on panel data, took into account both the geographical heterogeneity and spatial dependence of average per capita income and retail turnover, expanding the existing understanding of the relationship between consumption and income. This, in turn, enables management decisions that take into account previously undetected features and enhance their validity.
