Knowledge has never been more accessible than it is today. The phrase “to Google it” has become a universal expression when searching for information online. One of the most influential websites in this context is Wikipedia because of its visibility and its comprehensiveness (Thomas, 2023, p. 6). As of October 2025, Wikipedia is the ninth most-visited website in the world (Similarweb, 2025). It is a free, collaborative encyclopedia containing millions of articles on virtually every topic imaginable.However, in recent years, artificial intelligence has begun to transform how people access and evaluate knowledge. Since the launch of large language models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT and Grok, the process of searching for…

When Vietnam’s economic reforms were still in their early stages, in 1991, and the concept of a market economy remained unfamiliar to much of the public and the business community, Thoi bao Kinh te Viet Nam, now known as Tap chi Kinh te Viet Nam (with publications including Tap chi Kinh te Viet Nam, Vietnam Economic Times, and VnEconomy), was established with a mission to disseminate economic knowledge, promote new ways of thinking, and accompany the country’s development journey. From its earliest editions, the publication quickly developed a distinctive identity. Unlike the one-way reporting style common at the time, its…

There is a long-running debate on TikTok and other social media platforms about the massive growth of Money Market Funds (MMFs) in Kenya in recent years. On one hand are those who attribute this growth to the higher yields that MMFs offer when compared to ordinary bank savings accounts and deposits. On the other hand, some are convinced that the massive growth of MMFs is a bubble that may burst. Reality is, awareness of MMFs and investment options has grown tremendously across the country, especially after the Covid-19 pandemic, when people realised the need to increase their savings and investments.…

Nigeria’s real estate sector is expected to record uneven submarket growth in 2026, with infrastructure-led expansion and digital integration driving opportunities, even as pre-election uncertainties weigh on investment decisions. This was contained in the “2026 Nigeria Real Estate Market Outlook Report” by Panterra, which noted that previous election cycles showed a pattern of cautious investment behaviour, followed by selective activity as investors assessed market risks. The report stated that the 2011, 2015 and 2019 presidential election cycles reflected sensitivity to political transitions, with transaction activity typically slowing before gradually recovering. According to the study, the period leading to the 2023 elections…

The dynamic causal effect of an intervention on an outcome is of paramount interest to applied macro- and micro-economics research. However, this question has been generally approached differently by the two literatures. In making the transition from traditional time series methods to applied microeconometrics, local projections can serve as a natural bridge. Local projections can translate the familiar language of vector autoregressions (VARs) and impulse responses into the language of potential outcomes and treatment effects. There are gains to be made by both literatures from greater integration of well-established methods in each. This review shows how to make these connections…

The arrival of the Airbus A380 permanently transformed the architectural baseline of international aviation, pushing major transit hubs to rethink how boundaries can be expanded. Global gateways optimized their runways, taxiways, and terminal gates around the definitive dimensions of the Boeing 747, as no other aircraft challenged the existing dimensions of an airport. However, when a passenger jet weighing up to 1,268,000 lbs (575 tonnes) entered active service, it triggered a multi-billion-dollar wave of infrastructure overhauls across the globe. The iconic Boeing 747-400 served as the prime example for international design paradigms, establishing fixed limits for wingspan, wheel tracks, and…
