    This study uses panel data from 2002 to 2023, analyzed using the Panel System Generalized Method of Moments (System GMM) to investigate the effects of economic, political, and legal factors on the Control of Corruption Index (CC) in nine Emerging Asian (EMA) nations. Robustness is examined by re-estimating the model using common effects, random effects, and fixed effects estimators. The findings show that anticorruption initiatives are supported by foreign direct investment (FDI), freedom of speech and accountability, the rule of law, and the proportion of women in parliament, and that corruption control can be hindered by economic factors, such as GDP and inflation. The results further highlight a paradoxical development pattern in which economic growth may outpace institutional capacity, allowing corruption risk—such as particularistic spending and executive corruption—to persist despite formal improvements in corruption control. The results suggest that public integrity can be strengthened by enhancing institutional quality in EMA countries through the improvement of women's engagement in public life, more stringent law enforcement, and improved freedom of speech and accountability. The abuse of power for private gain is likely to increase when an emerging nation grows, so stricter anticorruption governance is needed. © 2026 The Authors.

    Business Performance and Sustainability Outcomes Driven by Circular Economy, Eco-Innovation, and Sustainable Marketing

    <jats:p>Sustainable practices are increasingly recognized as critical drivers of business performance in contemporary markets. This study examines the influence of Circular Economy (CE), Eco-Innovation (EI), and Sustainable Marketing (SM) on Business Performance (BP) among micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) located in Aguascalientes, Mexico, a representative emerging-economy context within Latin America. The relationships among these constructs were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) in SmartPLS 4.0. Results show that CE significantly drives both EI and SM, and that EI positively influences BP. However, the direct effect of SM on BP was marginal, indicating that its contribution to business performance is weaker than that of circular and eco-innovative practices in the analyzed sample. Among CE dimensions, enablers were the strongest driver of circular adoption, while in EI, adoption incentives exerted the greatest influence. This research contributes to the sustainability and management literature by rigorously analyzing and comparing the relative impact of different sustainability-oriented strategies—circular, innovative, and marketing-based—on business performance. By examining how these strategies interact and differ in their effects, the study offers evidence-based guidance for MSMEs with limited resources to prioritize initiatives with greater potential to enhance competitiveness. The proposed integrated CE–EI–SM–BP framework, validated through a predictive PLS-SEM approach (PLSpredict), provides robust empirical evidence from an underexplored emerging-economy context. The results also open avenues for future research to examine contextual or temporal factors influencing the effectiveness of sustainability-based strategies.</jats:p>

    La eficiencia técnica de la industria automotriz en México, 1988-2008

    <jats:p>El presente trabajo evalúa el impacto de la especialización productiva en la eficiencia técnica de la industria automotriz en México (1988-2008), utilizando el método de frontera de posibilidades de producción en escala regional, y considerando su localización regional. Para ese propósito, se estimó un índice de especialización regional del sector y un índice de eficiencia técnica para la industria automotriz utilizando el modelo de fronteras estocásticas (Battese y Coelli, 1995). Los hallazgos obtenidos sugieren que la especialización tiene impacto positivo en la eficiencia productiva en las unidades de análisis, además, se muestra que la escolaridad y la localización de las plantas automotrices en la región norte y centro del país contribuyen a disminuir los niveles de ineficiencia productiva.</jats:p>

    Construyendo la carretera Coatzacoalcos-Minatitlán y otros caminos en el sur de Veracruz, 1933-1942
    (2024)
    Michael K., Bess
    <jats:p>La carretera Coatzacoalcos-Minatitlán fue una vía importante en el proyecto para mejorar la movilidad y el acceso al transporte regional motorizado en la zona sur del estado de Veracruz, y fue un ejemplo de la formación de una organización local, y parcialmente independiente del resto de la burocracia estatal-federal, para construir obras en la región: el Comité Central Pro-Carretera de Coatzacoalcos (CCPCC). Este grupo tomó un papel central en la dirección de recursos y en la toma de decisiones sobre distintos proyectos de comunicaciones en el sur de Veracruz. Este artículo examina los antecedentes historiográficos, políticos y ambientales para contextualizar la construcción de la carretera Coatzacoalcos-Minatitlán y sus caminos vecinales, y estudia la creación del CCPCC, su administración y burocracia, y las reacciones locales ante sus actividades en la región.</jats:p>
