numerous studies on the Environmental Kuznets Curve have been in great contention by investigating the income-pollution relationship. In recent times, however, criticism of cross-section estimations of the EKC hypothesis has grown. Consequently, the contribution of this study uses time series data for a developed country with reliable data: Canada. A dynamic analysis is performed in the form of the Vector Error Correction Model to test the short-run and long-run relationship of income and pollution
developing country and least developed country. There are several previous studies that have been done on the relationship between inflation rate and unemployment rate in developed country such as by Hogan (United State), Sack’l en (Sweden) and Andrei (Romania). They are done the same research with different method to get same objective. The most of the study is use a VECM method in their research. While, there is a few of the study was used a VAR method. 2.1.1 United States Related to the topic research
buyer's willingness to withhold some demand for a certain product. Of course, the basics of supply and demand retrospectively control the equilibrium in the market. Supply and demand is one of the most simple-looking aspects of an economy and its study, but yet it presents the greatest challenge to analysts. Although most events can be mathematically calculated to perfection, the human aspect always intervenes and throws off a calculation. Dealing with the imperfections of psychology differentiates
Pakistan and the two main reasons are poor governance and income inequality. Few studies have focused on the theoretical substantiation of impact of bad governance and income inequality on poverty, but we do not find any study carrying empirical work on the impact of bad governance on poverty in Pakistan.

noticed how the people surrounded me tried to maximize their satisfaction with limited income. I felt curiosity to know the way how people choose options to optimize satisfaction from scarce resources.

As Bangladesh is a developing country, the economy is gradually expanding with many
student government . The question arising is whether low income students are less likely to participate in these extracurricular activities. Understanding the causes and reasons behind the significantly lower amount of extracurricular activity participation among low socioeconomic students incites a systematic approach to a solution. If impoverished students are unequally participating in extracurricular activities compared to high-income students, than they are also deprived of the procured benefits
The parents in the article ‘Bilingualism, Language Disorders and Intercultural Families in Contemporary Italy’ felt more negative in that perspective.

Elasticities Approach: - This approach emphasis on the substitution between goods, both in consumption and production, induced by the relative price changes brought by devaluation.

That one quote had revealed many matters that would be connected to the story. A study conducted by Prof. Alan Krueger called ‘Poverty and Terrorism: Is There a Causal Connection?’, discussed the connection of poverty and terrorism that is widespread since the last few decades. The journal has done a research resulting that poverty and
evidence derived from calculations. The study provided evidence to suggest that women do live longer than men and wealth is correlated with longevity. The study was sound, but it was done using only Swiss deceased, and its difficult to understand life circumstances based off only death age and income. Another thing I found is that the population was based off of people deceased whose age was 65 or older, I think that to properly measure longevity the study should include participants starting at
