While examining the effect of globalization on public purchasing, the role of research and development was neglected before. Globalization is concerned with growing inequality in most highly developed economies, but also with the gap found in the vast majority of emerging economies. In most emerging economies, technological and financial development has led to growing inequality, while its impact on developed economies has been mixed. Furthermore, our findings show that the effects of GDP, foreign direct investment and the supply of unskilled workers to the effects of technology, and the effects of globalization on the supply of skilled workers to the effects of financial growth and also acts as a transmission channel. This research also examines how much the globalization effects public purchasing when R & D plays a mediating role in Pakistan. Data was used from 2002 to 2018 by applying dynamic ARDL simulation model. Dynamic ARDL simulations model has ability to calculate the real positive and negative modification in the independent variables and its influence on the dependent variable. The studied outcomes of dynamic ARDL simulations shows that foreign direct investment, research and development, gross domestic product and economic global index have positive effect on public purchasing in Pakistan while inflation, interest rate have negative effect on public purchasing in Pakistan. Based on the results of this study policy implications are suggested for Pakistan.

Migration of workers is a human phenomenon which has historical roots and wider economic implications. Large-scale population mobility, accompanying structural change, is one of the fundamental features of modern economic development. Yet, attention has only recently been focused on the causes and consequences of such change. While labour migration affects the development process in a number of crucial ways, it impacts first and foremost on the labour market in sending and receiving areas. Moreover, the extant labour market structure also affects the migration process. The migration of labor from rural to urban areas is an important part of the urbanization process in developing countries. In some regions of India, three out of four households include a migrant. The effects of migration on individuals, households and regions add up to a significant impact on the national economy and society. Generally, India’s poor have meager physical assets and human capital and belong largely to so cially deprived groups such as Scheduled Castes (SC) and Scheduled Tribes (ST). Women share an extraordinary burden of deprivation within households. The National Sample Survey Organization (NSSO) has released Report No. 533 titled “Migration in India, 2007-2008” shows that the rural urban migration is looked as ensuring livelihood security. This is due to the fact that in urban areas, it is fairly easy to get some employment in the informal sector. Besides this has social, economic, environmental and political implications, which may alter the community in the long run. Despite the increasing wage earnings from informal sector are not all that socially accepted. Due to various interconnected factors, workers in urban informal sector are looked down. In this scenario, it is important to study the patterns of migration and wage earnings in urban informal sector. Three major cities Chennai, Madurai and Coimbatore in Tamil Nadu will be selected for an in-depth exploration. Snowball sampling procedure will be employed. The secondary data will also be used for the study.

The study is aimed at finding relationship between crude oil price in international market and exchange rate of Indian currency. As Indian economy is import dependent with high degree of inclination to crude oil import, the forex outgo due to this impacts Indian economy. The depreciation of Indian currency due to higher demand of US Dollar and increasing trend of import dependency on crude oil aggravates the fiscal framework. The analysis is desired to find causality and autoregressive relationship between these two variables. The Real Exchange Rate return has been compared in the process with real Crude Oil price which is found after adjusting it with CPI inflation of US. The Vector Autoregressive (VAR) model was used to identify lag relationship and subsequently lag length criteria was performed. The lag exclusion test specified the significant lag order. The Granger Causality and Block Exogeneity test was subsequently performed and the parameters were found to be Block Exogenous and not Granger Causal. This outcome was re-established with the help of Variance Decomposition test. However, the Impulse test signifies impact of crude oil price shock on exchange rate of Indian currency and vice versa. The shock analysis also emphasizes the volatility of the parameters on its own shocks. The outcome concludes neither unidirectional nor bidirectional granger causality of the variables with no significant auto regression of the variances of the parameters. The analysis of impulse test confirms the short run impacts on exchange rate due to shock in the oil prices, henceforth which proves the fact about that demand of oil is elastic in short run, which is observed in most of the oil importing and emerging countries.
