“…On the other hand, inactivity also rises, given the lack of job opportunities and the non-existence of unemployment insurance obliging the worker to remain active. This is the theoretical effect documented in Martín-Román (2022).…”

The authors question the validity of Okun's law in Latin America in this paper. Based on several econometric models, they show that fluctuations in economic activity have a lesser impact on unemployment rates in Latin American countries than in other, more advanced economies. Instead of stimulus policies focused on reducing unemployment in general, these countries need targeted policies that encourage job creation in specific sectors. That being said, the unemployment—output ratio differs from one Latin American country to another. Where the ratio is weak or non‐existent, cyclical variations adversely affect the quality of employment – another aspect that must also be addressed by economic policy.

“…3 The first predicts anti-cyclical behaviour of the labour supply in its extensive margin (labour participation) and the second, procyclical behaviour. A simple theoretical formalization of both effects may be found in two recent publications: Martín-Román, Cuéllar-Martín and Moral (2020) and Martín-Román (2022).…”

The energy transition process might face cognitive bankruptcy because of prevailing gender bias in the energy sector. Policy reorientation is needed to ensure diminishing of gender bias in the transition process. The political risk persisting within the economy, as well as among its international counterparts, also needs to be internalized within this framework. Existing regulatory infrastructure might possibly have an impact on shaping the dimensions of this association. The present study aims at analysing the effect of energy transition on gender inequality in the USA in light of political risk and regulations. Moderation effects are captured using marginal impact analysis. The estimation results show that although energy transition increases gender inequality, it is reduced in the presence of moderation. The policy framework developed in the study is aimed at attaining the objectives of Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) 5 and 7.
