SACU Resource Productivity and Economic Globalisation Panel Data 1990-2023

Southern African Customs Union (SACU) panel data analyzes the effect of economic globalisation on resource productivity from 1990 to 2023. The dataset, created by Jacques de Jongh and shared on Figshare, contains econometric analysis results in a 29.5 KB XLSX file.

Use Cases

• Analyze long-run elasticities between economic globalisation indices and resource productivity metrics.
• Perform panel causality tests to identify feedback loops within the SACU bloc.
• Examine core-periphery dynamics using de jure and de facto integration dimensions.
• Model the interaction between regional institutional framework variables and sustainability outcome indicators.

Strengths

• 34-year temporal coverage from 1990 to 2023.
• Analysis focuses on the specific, highly integrated SACU regional bloc.
• Data supports dynamic common correlated effects estimation.

Limitations

• Very small data footprint at 29.5 KB, indicating limited raw observations or aggregated results.
• Unknown row count and specific column structure.
• Analysis may be geographically biased, focusing only on SACU member states.
