Öğe A STRUCTURAL EQUATION MODELING WITH WELFARE INDICATORS: EXAMINING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SOCIOECONOMIC STATUS, ACCESS TO SERVICES AND MATERIAL DEPRIVATION(2024) Daglioglu, Cansu; Özdamar, Öznur; Üçdoğruk Birecikli, Şenay; Giovanis, EleftheriosThis study aims at presenting comprehensive model using welfare indicators such as socioeconomic status, access to services and material deprivation, and examining the relationships between these variables. In the analysis, we use the pooled cross-sectional data set of the Household Budget Survey of the Turkish Statistical Institute (TURKSTAT) covering the period 2015-2019. Since the simultaneous relationship between welfare indicators such as socioeconomic status, material deprivation and access to services is examined using latent variables, Structural Equation Modeling is preferred. The study finds that socioeconomic status, composed of education and income, increases households' access to services and decreases their material deprivation. In addition, as households' access to services increases, their material deprivation decreases. Our study also finds that women's socioeconomic status is lower than men's in Turkiye during the period analysed. Moreover men in households have more limited access to services and face more material deprivation than women. The increase in household size makes access to services more difficult, worsens the socioeconomic situation and increases deprivation. Considering the health status variable, it is concluded that healthy individuals have higher socioeconomic status and suffer from less deprivation.Öğe Attitudes towards Syrian refugees in Türkiye: Does cosmopolitanism matter?(Springer Heidelberg, 2024) Özdamar, Öznur; Giovanis, Eleftherios; Akdede, Sacit HadiThis paper empirically investigates the possible relationship between cosmopolitanism and attitudes towards Syrian refugees in Turkiye. Previous research has emphasised that factors determining cosmopolitanism can also influence attitudes towards refugees and immigrants. However, no study has documented evidence of the link between these factors and the attitudes of Turkish people towards Syrian refugees. We use a unique data set covering 1031 individuals born in different provinces of Turkiye. The survey was carried out in Mersin, Adana, Mardin, Gaziantep, Sanliurfa and Hatay, where a higher number of Syrians reside compared to other provinces of Turkiye. Attitudes towards Syrians are measured by asking their opinion on whether the Turkish government should provide citizenship and welfare benefits to Syrian refugees. Findings show that those with cosmopolitan orientations, people who have been or lived abroad in the past, and individuals who know at least one foreign language and participated in cultural activities while being in another country are more tolerant of refugees. Although government legitimates the refugee issue to the Turkish society within the religious discourse since the beginning of war, religious people are not different in tolerance towards Syrian refugees than non-religious people in Turkiye.Öğe Coping strategies and inequalities during the COVID-19 pandemic period: evidence from Kenya(Oxford Univ Press, 2024) Giovanis, Eleftherios; Özdamar, ÖznurGovernments worldwide have implemented stringent lockdown measures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak, which had an adverse impact on employment, affecting people's public life, health and well-being. People have witnessed job losses, cuts in wages and a decline in their living standards. This study aims to estimate the inequalities and well-being costs, demonstrating the living standards necessary to make up for people's wage reduction or job losses. In particular, we aim to explore the coping strategies used to enhance their well-being compared to those of households without a coping strategy. We use food insecurity as a measure of well-being outcome. The empirical analysis relies on detailed household surveys from the World Bank Microdata Library. We use seven waves of the Panel COVID-19 Rapid Response Phone Survey with Households in 2020-2022 in Kenya. Also, the results highlight the potential inequalities of the COVID-19 pandemic across gender and types of workers, such as those employed in the informal sector and on temporary contracts. The findings show that specific coping strategies, such as delayed payment obligations, credit purchases and reduced non-food consumption, are associated with larger inequalities. Regarding the gender of the head of the household, the results suggest that the disparities between female-headed households that had to cope with income and employment loss and female-headed households that did not require to follow any strategy are significantly higher compared to their male counterparts. We derive similar concluding remarks when we consider households with social security coverage and the type of employment contract.Öğe Coping Strategies, well-being and inequalities during the COVID-19 pandemic period(Springer, 2023) Giovanis, Eleftherios; Ozdamar, OznurAs a response to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, governments around the globe have carried on strict lockdown measures affecting millions of jobs, public life, and the well-being of people. This study examines people's subjective well-being, such as the perception of the economic situation and mental well-being, who made adjustments to cope with the earning losses. We estimate the well-being cost, which is the money required to compensate people because of the reduction in earnings or employment loss and the coping strategy followed to bring their well-being to the levels of those who have not adopted any coping strategy. We examine two outcomes; the perception of the economic situation and a mental well-being index. We employ data from the ERF COVID-19 MENA Monitor Surveys for Egypt, Jordan, Morocco and Tunisia. The results show that coping strategies with earning losses impact well-being and are associated with high costs. In most cases, the coping strategies of borrowing from banks and selling assets present the highest well-being costs. Furthermore, the estimates highlight significant discrepancies across gender and types of workers, such as those employed in the informal sector and temporary contracts.Öğe Cultural Integration of First-Generation Immigrants: Evidence from European Union Countries(Digital Initiatives Univ Waterloo Lib, 2023) Giovanis, Eleftherios; Akdede, Sacit HadiIn this study, we aim to explore and compare the frequency of attendance and the reasons for non-attendance to cultural activities between natives and first-generation immigrants in thirteen European countries. The empirical analysis relies on data from the special module on cultural participation in the European Union-Income and Living Conditions Survey (EU-SILC) in 2015. We apply the Probit and multinomial Probit models. This study contributes to the literature by exploring the determinants of cultural participation and comparing the frequency of participation in cultural activities between natives and first-generation immigrants. Furthermore, the study explores the reasons for non-participation in cultural activities, highlighting potential differences between countries and between the European Union (EU) and non-EU migrants. The results highlight that social interactions depend on several factors related mainly to the country of destination and employment opportunities and individual factors related to the migrant, including demographic and economic characteristics and the length of residence in the host country. The findings show that the length of residence of immigrants in the host countries is positively correlated with a higher frequency of attendance, indicating that cultural participation can be, by its nature, a long-term process or experienced activity. The findings also show that in most cases, migrants do not attend the cultural activities we explore because of financial constraints and not due to lack of interest. Thus, this highlights that the economic integration of migrants could be the primary driver of cultural participation and integration.Öğe Cultural Integration of First-Generation Immigrants: Evidence from European Union Countries(Digital Initiatives Univ Waterloo Lib, 2023) Giovanis, Eleftherios; Akdede, Sacit HadiIn this study, we aim to explore and compare the frequency of attendance and the reasons for nonattendance to cultural activities between natives and first-generation immigrants in thirteen European countries. The empirical analysis relies on data from the special module on cultural participation in the European Union-Income and Living Conditions Survey (EU-SILC) in 2015. We apply the Probit and multinomial Probit models. This study contributes to the literature by exploring the determinants of cultural participation and comparing the frequency of participation in cultural activities between natives and first-generation immigrants. Furthermore, the study explores the reasons for non-participation in cultural activities, highlighting potential differences between countries and between the European Union (EU) and non-EU migrants. The results highlight that social interactions depend on several factors related mainly to the country of destination and employment opportunities and individual factors related to the migrant, including demographic and economic characteristics and the length of residence in the host country. The findings show that the length of residence of immigrants in the host countries is positively correlated with a higher frequency of attendance, indicating that cultural participation can be, by its nature, a long-term process or experienced activity. The findings also show that in most cases, migrants do not attend the cultural activities we explore because of financial constraints and not due to lack of interest. Thus, this highlights that the economic integration of migrants could be the primary driver of cultural participation and integration.Öğe Cultural participation in later life among older-aged immigrants in the Czech Republic(Vysoka Skola Ekonomicka, 2021) Giovanis, Eleftherios; Akdede, Sacit HadiThe first aim of the study is to compare the intensity of participation in cultural activities among natives, first- and second-generation immigrants in Czech Republic. The second aim is to examine whether the participation in those activities improves the emotional and psychological well-being of first-generation immigrants compared to the natives. The empirical analysis relies on data from the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe in 2017. We perform a system of simultaneous ordered probit models. To further improve our estimates, we apply an instrumental variables (IV) approach to reduce the endogeneity issue. The results show that natives report higher levels of psychological well- being, but there is no difference in cultural participation between the secondgeneration immigrants and natives. First-generation immigrants participate less frequently, except attending a sports match, where we find no difference in the frequency. However, in the majority of the cases, we conclude that immigrants participating in those activities are more likely to improve their well-being. Furthermore, there is no difference in cultural participation between immigrants and natives in areas characterized by high net migration rates. On the other hand, a lower frequency of participation is found in the areas with low net migration rates, indicating that migration and diversity in an area may encourage participation in the cultural activities explored in this study. Finally, the length of residence and mixed marriages are related with a higher frequency of cultural participation. The findings suggest that fostering accessibility of cultural activities and migration policies should be regarded.Öğe Disability specific equivalence scales: a case-control approach applied to the cost of acquired brain injuries(Springer, 2022) Giovanis, Eleftherios; Menon, Martina; Perali, FedericoThis study estimates the household costs resulting from acquired brain injuries in terms of a reduction in the standard of living. The application uses primary data collected in the Verona and Florence provinces of Italy integrating highly detailed health information with information about consumption, income, wealth, time-use and relational well-being describing the standard of living. In general, the estimates of disability costs in previous studies are obtained from survey data without a specific focus on individuals with disabilities but collect information on the general health status. In contrast, this study exploits highly detailed information on a sample of cases with a disability, whose intensity is measured by the highly precise European quality of life measure-5 domain-5 (EQ-5D) instrument, to be compared with a sample of control formed by households without disabled members. The disability scales have been estimated using a Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) based procedure. We then implement interpersonal comparisons on the health income dimension in a theoretically plausible way, testing the independence hypothesis of equivalence scales. Our study finds that on average disabled households need an additional amount of about euro1800 per month to reach the same standard of livings as the non-disabled households corresponding to a scale of 1.78.Öğe The effect of regional competitiveness operational programme on employment: an empirical assessment for the Central Anatolia of Turkey(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2021) Özdamar, Öznur; Yavuzaslan, Kiymet; Giovanis, Eleftherios; Bahceci, CansuRegional Competitiveness Operational Programme (RCOP) is one of the policies which aims to increase the competitiveness of the poorest regions of Turkey by supporting enterprises and creating employment opportunities. This study aims to investigate whether RCOP has generated more employment opportunities in the East-Central Anatolia Region compared to its neighbor called West-Central Anatolia Region. As an identification strategy, we implement Difference-in-Differences (DiD) methodology, and for the robustness check, we apply DiD with Propensity Score Matching (PSM). The entire analysis relies on data derived from the Household Labor Force Survey between 2004 and 2017. Our findings show that RCOP increased only the employment rate of young people aged between 15-24. We find no evidence of a positive effect for people over 24 years old. Governments in other countries which are also concerned about unemployment and vulnerability among youth could implement similar policies. Even though the programme has been effective in increasing the youth employment rate, the employment gap between men and women persists in favor of men in all age groups, including the youth. This finding offers an insight into the necessity of additional policies to increase female employment and close the gender gap in employment opportunities.Öğe The effect of the 2008 employment support programme on young men's labour market outcomes in Turkey: Evidence from a regression discontinuity design(Wiley, 2021) Özdamar, Öznur; Giovanis, Eleftherios; Dağlıoğlu, Cansu; Gerede, CemaleddinActive labour market policies (ALMPs), such as subsidies for wages, social security contributions (SSCs) and employment, are one of the most important tools of countries' efforts to tackle unemployment. The Turkish government launched the employment subsidy programme in 2008, aiming to decrease unemployment and to encourage formal employment by subsidizing the SSCs for relatively disadvantaged groups. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of the 2008 policy on various labour outcomes. The entire analysis relies on micro-level panel data derived by the Survey of Income and Living Conditions over the period of 2008-2011. Young men aged between 18 and 29 years are eligible to the programme. To infer causality, we apply a regression discontinuity design analysis using as the cut-off point those who are aged 30 years. The findings show that the policy of 2008 had a positive impact on employment and the probability of being employed in the formal sector and working full time.Öğe The effect of unemployment benefits on health and living standards in Turkey: evidence from structural equation modelling and regression discontinuity design(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2021) Giovanis, Eleftherios; Özdamar, Öznur; Özdaş, BurcuPurpose Unemployment can negatively affect individuals, their families and communities in various ways. When individuals are out of work may experience mental and physical health problems, material deprivation and poverty. This study aims to examine the impact of unemployment benefits on health and living standards in Turkey. Design/methodology/approach The authors employ a structural equation modelling (SEM) to consider the simultaneous relationships among the unemployment benefits and the latent variables of health and Standard of Living (SoL). We propose a fuzzy Regression Discontinuity Design (FRDD) and a Regression Kink Design (RKD) within the SEM framework to infer causality. For the empirical analysis, the authors employ the panel Income and Living Conditions Survey (ILCS) in 2007-2015. Findings The authors' findings suggest that those who receive these benefits are more likely to report higher levels of health and improve their living standards compared to the non-recipients. Furthermore, unemployment benefits replacement rates are associated with improved levels in health and living standards. The authors' results indicate a substantial heterogeneity on the impact of unemployment benefits since males, low educated individuals and those belonging to the lower levels of income are affected more in terms of their health status and living standards. Originality/value The majority of earlier studies have focused on the impact of unemployment benefits on labor outcomes. The originality of this study is that we implement the FRDD and RKD within the SEM framework to explore, simultaneously, the impact of unemployment insurance on health and living standards. Moreover, future research studies can implement this framework to infer causality and explore the impact of related policies and reforms.Öğe Household disability costs and living standards in Turkey: evidence from a health reform(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2021) Özdamar, Öznur; Giovanis, Eleftherios; Samuk, SahizerPurpose In this study, we attempt to estimate the disability costs of households employing the Standard of Livings (SoL) approach and evaluate the impact of the Universal health system reform implemented in Turkey in 2008. Design/methodology/approach We apply a Structural Equation Modelling (SEM), which simultaneously estimates the disability and living standard equations, including unobserved latent variables. Moreover, we apply a difference-in-differences (DiD) framework to investigate the impact of the universal health insurance (UHI) system and the Green Card programme on living standards. The empirical analysis relies on data derived from the cross-sectional Household Budget Surveys (HBS) during the period 2002-2013. Findings Our findings suggest a negative and significant impact of disability on SoL, where disability costs reach the 23% of the household income, which is equivalent almost to $2,600 (USD). Furthermore, the disability costs are reduced from $4,450 to $2,260 due to the UHI and the Green Card programme. Research limitations/implications A major limitation of the study is the data structure, which is based on repeated cross-sectional surveys. By using panel data, it is possible to follow the same individual across time and to implement panel data models to control for unobserved heterogeneity and omitted-variable bias. Social implications Disability has adverse effects on living standards. The estimation of the disability-related costs may provide a useful guide on policy planning and the design of social benefits. Originality/value The contribution of this paper is that it is the first study estimating the disability-related costs in Turkey. Furthermore, the contribution lies in the investigation of the 2008 health reform and the Green Card programme and its impact on disability costs.Öğe The impact of climate change on budget balances and debt in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region(Springer, 2022) Giovanis, Eleftherios; Özdamar, ÖznurLower tax revenues and greater government spending result in higher deficits and public debt. As a result, determining the degree of budgetary effects is vital, but important to assess the persistence of these effects. We aim to investigate the impact of climate change on the fiscal balance and public debt in the countries of the Middle East and North Africa. The empirical analysis relies on panel data in the period 1990-2019 and employs various models. The findings show that temperature changes adversely affect the government budget and increase debt, but we find no significant impact of changes in rainfall. The average temperature decreases fiscal balance by 0.3 percent and increases debt by 1.87 percent. Using projections of temperature and rainfall over the years 2020 to 2099, we find a significant decrease in the fiscal balance at 7.3 percent and an increase in the public debt at 16 percent in 2060-2079 and 18 percent in 2080-2099 under the assumption of a high greenhouse gas (GHG) emission scenario. On the contrary, under the low GHG emission scenario, the fiscal balance deteriorates by 1.7 percent in 2020-2039 and 2.2 percent in 2080-2099, while public debt rises by 5 percent in 2020-2039 and 6.3 percent in 2080-2099.Öğe The impact of migration flows on well-being of elderly natives and migrants: Evidence from the survey of health, ageing and retirement in Europe(Springer, 2020) Akdede, Sacit Hadi; Giovanis, EleftheriosImmigration has been a long-standing contentious issue across the globe. According to a recent report published by the International Organization for Migration (IOM) in 2015, the majority of people in the Northern and Western European countries report positive perceptions towards immigration compared to those of the Southern European countries. However, little is known about how migration affects the well-being of old aged people. The main aim of this study is to examine the association between net migration rates and the subjective and objective well-being of old-aged natives in Europe, using the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe during the period of 2004-2017. The estimates will also take place across different regions and across various groups such as gender, age, education level, and first- and second-generation migrants. In addition to the conventional methods, such as the ordinary least squares (OLS) used to analyse the relevant associations, we also apply an instrumental variables (IV) approach to account for possible endogeneity in migration. The results are mixed as we find a positive impact of migration on the subjective well-being and wages of natives and second-generation immigrants in the Northern/Western and Eastern European countries, and a negative impact in the Southern region.Öğe Impact of migration policies on socio-cultural participation and well-being: evidence from the Migration Act of 2000 in Germany(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2022) Giovanis, EleftheriosPurpose Countries have implemented various migration policies targeting the migrants' economic and political integration and social inclusion. However, little is known about the impact of migration policies on migrants' participation in socio-cultural activities and their link with well-being. The first aim of this study is to explore the effect of the Migration Act of 2000 in Germany on participation in socio-cultural activities of first-generation migrants. The second aim is to examine the impact of socio-cultural activities on subjective well-being (SWB), measured by life satisfaction, and how it is compared between first-generation immigrants and natives. Design/methodology/approach The Migration Act of 2000 was extended in 2005 to provide permanent residence permits to high-skilled migrants and deliver cultural orientation and German language courses. The author will implement a Difference-in-Differences (DiD) methodology comparing the relationship between socio-cultural participation and SWB of first-generation immigrants and natives. Findings The results show that while first-generation immigrants participate less frequently in the socio-cultural activities explored, they experience an increase in participation after the implementation of the 2000 Migration Act. Furthermore, migrants report lower levels of SWB than natives, but their life satisfaction significantly improves with the increase in socio-cultural participation. Social implications The findings of this study have implications for researchers and policymakers, such as income, education and employment promoting migrant integration. Providing employment opportunities and a permanent residence permit, cultural participation, and thus, the integration of migrants can be successfully achieved. Originality/value While there is a long debate about the effectiveness of migration integration policies, this is the first study investigating the effect of the Migration Act of 2000 on migrants' socio-cultural participation and well-being.Öğe The impact of Syrian conflict and the refugee crisis on labour market outcomes of host countries(2021) Özdamar, Öznur; Giovanis, EleftheriosThe civil war in Syria, which started in March of 2011, has led to a massive influx of forced migration, especially from Northern Syria to the neighbouring countries. The unexpected movement of refugees has created large exogenous labour supply shocks with potentially significant effects on the labour and living standard outcomes of natives in the host countries. Using a difference-in-differences (DID) framework, this study explores the impact of Syrian refugees on labour market outcomes in Jordan and Turkey. Furthermore, we implement an instrumental variables (IV) approach within the DID framework. The results are mixed and vary, not only across the labour outcomes explored but also across demographic and socio-economic groups, as females and low educated are mainly affected by the refugee crisis negatively. Main policy implications include the design and implementation of active labour market policies, necessary measures to address the employment in the formal sector, encouraging the private sector to employ Syrian refugees in sectors where migrant workers would like to work and natives are not willing to work. Other policies include the implementation of realistic scenarios to integrate the refugees in the domestic labour market that will be beneficial for the domestic economy. Furthermore, national governments and authorities should maximize the job creation potential by collaborating with international actors. School enrollment for refugees' children and granting formal work permits to their parents are other policies that may affect natives and refugees positively.Öğe Impact of the EU Blue Card programme on cultural participation and subjective well-being of migrants in Germany(Public Library Science, 2021) Giovanis, Eleftherios; Akdede, Sacit Hadi; Özdamar, ÖznurThe first aim of this study is to investigate the role of the EU Blue Card programme implemented in 2012 in Germany. In particular, we aim to explore the impact on the participation in cultural activities of first-generation non-European Union (EU) and non-European Economic Area (EEA) migrants, such as attendance to cinema, concerts and theatre. The second aim is to examine the impact of cultural activities on subjective well-being (SWB), measured by life satisfaction. We compare the cultural participation and life satisfaction between the treatment group that is the non-EU/EEA first-generation immigrants and the control group that consists, not only of natives and second-generation immigrants but also composes of EU/EEA first-generation immigrants who are not eligible to the programme. We will apply a sharp and a fuzzy regression discontinuity design (RDD) within a seemingly unrelated regression equations (SURE) system using the Ordered Probit method. The empirical analysis relies on data from the German Socio-Economic Panel (GSOEP) survey over the period 2015-2018. The results show that the treated subjects experience an increase in cultural participation activities and an improvement in their SWB, as a result of the EU Blue Card programme, compared to the control group. Participation in classical music performance, opera or theatre influences more the SWB compared to other cultural activities. Policies that promote labour market integration and participation in cultural activities will enable immigrants to integrate into the social norms of the host societies and improve their SWB.Öğe Instrumental variables in structural equation modelling: an application on the impact of labour factors on health and standard of livings(Springer Heidelberg, 2022) Giovanis, Eleftherios; Özdamar, ÖznurEmployment is considered a significant determinant of living standards around the globe. For most people, work is the primary source of income, and job-related events and shocks are common causes for individuals and households to escape from poverty or fall into it. Along with employment, it is well known that the effects of health status on a worker's productivity are critical as healthy workers are more productive when they work, and they can earn more, also enhancing their standard of living. This study exploits the exogenous variations created by the employment support programmes of 2008 and 2011 implemented in Turkey, targeting women and young men. To investigate the impact of those programmes, we exploit the exogenous variations created, and we evaluate their effect on health and standard of living (SoL) through various labour factors. We apply the structural equation modelling (SEM) and estimate the additional health-related costs. Moreover, we propose an instrumental variables (IV) approach within the SEM framework to deal with the endogeneity coming from the reverse causality between labour factors, health and SoL.Öğe Integration policies in Spain and Sweden: Do they matter for migrants' economic integration and socio-cultural participation?(Sage Publications Inc, 2021) Giovanis, Eleftherios; Akdede, Sacit HadiThe aim of this study is to explore the impact of integration policies, implemented in Spain and Sweden, on first-generation migrants' economic integration and socio-cultural participation. Different policies targeting migrants' economic and political integration, social inclusion, and cultural participation have been adopted by countries in Europe and across the globe for years. However, little is known about their impact on migrant's economic and socio-cultural integration. We explore the Strategic Plan on Citizenship and Integration (PECI) I in 2007 to 2010 and PECI II in 2011 to 2014 implemented in Spain. For Sweden, we examine the Integration Plans of 2008 and 2014. We apply a difference-in-differences (DiD) framework. The findings suggest that the integration policies in Spain had a positive effect in some domains of the socio-cultural and economic integration for EU migrants, while a negative impact is found for the non-EU immigrants. On the other hand, the results for the integration in Sweden show a weak effect. Integration policies should identify the barriers of migrants' social inclusion and recognize their needs for their successful economic and socio-cultural integration in the host societies.Öğe Küreselleşmenin Enerji İthalatı Üzerine Etkisi(2024) Kara, Mustafa; Özdamar, Öznur; Giovanis, EleftheriosEnerji sürdürülebilir ekonomik büyüme için vazgeçilmez bir kaynaktır. Bazı ülkeler enerji rezervleri açısından şanslıyken diğerleri enerji ithalatına bağımlıdır. Küreselleşme ile birlikte artan uluslararası ticaret faaliyetleri enerji ithalatında değişimlere neden olabilir. Çalışmada küreselleşmenin enerji ithalatı üzerindeki rolü, enerjiye olan bağımlılık derecesine ve gelişmişlik düzeyine göre sınıflandırılmış 69 ülkede 1991-2014 dönemi için panel veri yöntemleriyle analiz edilmiştir. Analiz sonuçları, gelişmiş ve enerji ithalatına minimal bağımlılık gösteren ülkelerde, küreselleşmenin enerji ithalatı üzerindeki etkisinin sınırlı kaldığını göstermektedir. Bu ülkeler enerji gereksinimlerini büyük oranda yerel ve yenilenebilir enerji kaynakları aracılığıyla temin etmektedirler, bu bağlamda rüzgar ve güneş enerjisi gibi alternatif enerji kaynaklarının kullanımına yönelmektedirler. Öte yandan, enerji bağımlılığı yüksek olan gelişmiş ülkelerde, küreselleşme enerji ithalatının artmasına katkıda bulunmaktadır. Gelişmekte olan ülkeler söz konusu olduğunda, küreselleşmenin enerji ithalatı üzerindeki etkisi belirgin değildir. Bu ülkeler enerji gereksinimlerini daha ziyade yerel kaynaklar üzerinden karşılamakta ve enerji talepleri nispeten daha düşük düzeylerde seyretmektedir.
