A multivariate study of energy consumption, urbanisation, trade openness and economic growth in Malaysia

This paper investigates both the short and long term dynamic relationships between energy consumption, trade openness, urbanization and economic growth in Malaysia through econometric model during the period of 1971-2013. The novel methodology in econometric techniques such as unit root without stru...
