Subject:
developed countries,   etc   ; disasters; entrepreneurship;     Show all 3 Subjects
Abstract:
... We propose that natural disasters discourage economic development in the short-run by inhibiting entrepreneurship start-up activity, which is largely responsible for job creation and growth. Our findings indicate that natural disaster events decrease start-up activity in the short-run (i.e., 1–2 years) but have no effect beyond that term. Furthermore, this relationship is driven by climatic natura ...

The analysis employs a fixed effects-instrumental variable generalized method of moments approach. We find that the size of the informal sector has a significant impact on environmental quality, which is conditional on the level of ...
