Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Poverty
  • Macroeconomics
  • Gross domestic product

His scientific interests lie mostly in Poverty, Computable general equilibrium, Agricultural economics, Food security and Economic growth. His Poverty research integrates issues from Investment, Development economics, Rate of return and Accrual. His work carried out in the field of Computable general equilibrium brings together such families of science as Contract farming and Income distribution.

His study explores the link between Agricultural economics and topics such as Production that cross with problems in Poverty reduction. James Thurlow has researched Food security in several fields, including Natural resource economics, Agricultural productivity, Government budget and Gross domestic product. His work on Productivity as part of general Economic growth study is frequently linked to Face and Political science, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His most cited work include:

  • The role of agriculture in African development. (250 citations)
  • The Role of Agriculture in Development: Implications for Sub-Saharan Africa (246 citations)
  • Climate and southern Africa's water-energy-food nexus (183 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

James Thurlow spends much of his time researching Poverty, Computable general equilibrium, Natural resource economics, Development economics and Agricultural economics. His work investigates the relationship between Poverty and topics such as Food security that intersect with problems in Gross domestic product. His Computable general equilibrium research incorporates themes from Agricultural productivity and Environmental resource management.

His research in Natural resource economics intersects with topics in Developing country, International development, Carbon tax and Income distribution. He works mostly in the field of Development economics, limiting it down to topics relating to Social accounting matrix and, in certain cases, Economy and National accounts, as a part of the same area of interest. His Agricultural economics research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Consumption, Economic model, Agricultural policy and Public policy.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Poverty (60.25%)
  • Computable general equilibrium (48.95%)
  • Natural resource economics (33.05%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Poverty (60.25%)
  • Social accounting matrix (8.37%)
  • Computable general equilibrium (48.95%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary areas of study are Poverty, Social accounting matrix, Computable general equilibrium, Development economics and Developing country. His Poverty research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Investment, Equity, Food security and Agricultural economics. His Agricultural economics study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Production, Estimation and Gross domestic product.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Urbanization, Food systems and Development studies in addition to Development economics. His Developing country research includes elements of Natural resource economics and Rural poverty. In his research, Food policy is intimately related to International development, which falls under the overarching field of Natural resource economics.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The economic costs of COVID-19 in sub-Saharan Africa: insights from a simulation exercise for Ghana (7 citations)
  • Linking agricultural investments to growth and poverty: An economywide approach applied to Mozambique (7 citations)
  • Assessing the impacts of COVID-19 on Myanmar’s economy: A Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) multiplier approach (5 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Macroeconomics
  • Poverty
  • Gross domestic product

His primary scientific interests are in Poverty, Development economics, Developing country, Food security and Natural resource economics. His study connects Social accounting matrix and Poverty. James Thurlow combines subjects such as Food systems and Development studies with his study of Development economics.

His Food security research incorporates elements of Agricultural productivity and Environmental planning. His Natural resource economics research includes themes of Computable general equilibrium, Order and Economic model. His research integrates issues of Profitability index and Livelihood in his study of Computable general equilibrium.
