Abstract

Objective: This research analyzes economic growth and environmental degradation in upper-middle-income countries using a panel data model to explore heterogeneity between them. Methodology: A panel econometric specification is used to analyze the heterogeneity between economic growth and environ- ment in a sample of upper middle-income countries: Argentina, Brazil, China, Guatemala, Mexico, Peru, Thailand, with fixed and random individual effects. Data: Annual global development indicators from the World Bank on carbon dioxide emissions per capita (CO2pc) and gross domestic product per capita (GDPpc) for the period 1990 to 2020 are used. Results: Empirical results show for both Mexico and the rest of the 6 countries studied, the absence of an Environmental Kuznets Curve (CAK) in the period analyzed. // Objetivo: Esta investigación analiza el crecimiento económico y degradación ambiental en países de ingreso medio alto utilizando un modelo de datos panel para explorar la heterogeneidad entre ellos.
