TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored the regional imbalance of China's provincial energy intensity and the spatially correlation of energy intensity among provinces using spatial panel data models, and found that GDP per capita, transportation infrastructure, the level of marketization, and scientific and technological input significantly reduce the energy intensity; the ratio of heavy industries to total industries and the proportion of coal consumption to total energy consumption significantly expand the energy consumption.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the impact of family control on corporate social responsibility (CSR) performance and find that family-controlled firms exhibit lower CSR performance, consistent with the expropriation hypothesis.
Abstract: We investigate the impact of family control on corporate social responsibility (CSR) performance. Using newly collected data on the ultimate ownership structure of publicly traded firms in nine East Asian economies, we find that family-controlled firms exhibit lower CSR performance, consistent with the expropriation hypothesis of family control. The negative relationship between family control and CSR is robust to alternative measures of family control, different components of CSR, as well as to endogeneity tests, subsample tests, and alternative estimation methods. We further find that CSR underperformance concentrates in family firms with greater agency problems and in countries with weaker institutions. Moreover, the underperformance of East Asian family firms holds when controlling for the effects of other large shareholders and when comparing with family firms from other countries. These findings contribute to understanding the determinants of CSR and highlight the importance of corporate governance and the institutional environment in improving CSR performance of family-controlled firms.
