    This paper analyzes the role of networks in access of women entrepreneurs to start-up capital and firm performance in Eswatini, a country with one of the highest female unemployment rates in Africa. The paper first shows that higher initial capital is associated with better sales performance for both men and women entrepreneurs. Women entrepreneurs start their firms with smaller start-up capital than men and are more likely to fund it from their own sources, which reduces the size of their firm and sales level. However, women with higher education start their firms with more capital than their less educated counterparts. Moreover, women who receive support from professional networks have higher initial capital, while those trained in financial literacy more often access external funding sources, including through their networks.

    Persistent gender gaps characterize labor markets in many African countries. Utilizing Eswatini's first three labor market surveys (conducted in 2007, 2010, and 2013), this paper provides first systematic evidence on the country's gender gaps in employment and earnings. We find that women have notably lower employment rates and earnings than men, even though the global financial crisis had a less negative impact on women than it had on men. Both unadjusted and unexplained gender earnings gaps are higher in self-employment than in wage employment. Tertiary education and urban location account for a large part of the gender earnings gap and mitigate high female propensity to self-employment. Our findings suggest that policies supporting female higher education and rural-urban mobility could reduce persistent inequalities in Eswatini's labor market outcomes as well as in other middle-income countries in southern Africa.

    Besides globalization, or rather, parallel with it, knowledge-based economy seems to represent a highly important ground-gaining force - quasi becoming a trendy buzzword - that attracts increasing attention in developed countries, although its forms vary in different regions owing to the differing situation and set of conditions of the given area and the new type of international specialization emerging as a result of global competition. All this is a fundamental factor at the level of sub-regions, since competitiveness is determined by knowledge base on the local level. The present paper aims to develop an indicator system and a complex method to measure the connection between the innovation performance and competitiveness of local units. We try to demonstrate the determining role of the innovation performance on the regional disparities measured by the competitiveness on sub-regional level with the help of multi-variable data analyzing methods based on a determined system of viewpoints, a correctly chosen theoretical models and statistical data. In the course of our work, using cluster analysis, MDS, factor analysis etc. the 174 Hungarian sub-regions will be classified according to their development phases.

    The article is devoted to measuring the effectiveness of institutional systems of developed countries in terms of their relevance to the requirements of the global knowledge-based economy. The aim of the article is to evaluate the results obtained by Visegrád Group in relations to OECD countries. In the first part of the article the most important factors determining the ability of a country to use the development potential of the knowledge-based economy was discussed. This analysis was based on the principals of institutional economics. Then taxonomic examination for OECD countries covering the period 1995-2010 was made. The empirical analysis utilized linear ordering, a procedure based on the Hellwig's method of pattern development. Data form Fraser Institute base created for Economic Freedom of the World Raptor was used.

    Drawing on the 2007 and 2010 Swaziland Labor Force Surveys, this paper provides first systematic evidence on recent youth employment challenges in Swaziland, a small, land-locked, middle-income country with one of the highest youth unemployment rates in Africa. The paper first documents the various labor market disadvantages faced by the Swazi youth, such as high unemployment and discouragement, and how they changed from 2007 to 2010. A multinomial logit regression analysis is then carried out to analyze the socio-economic drivers of the unfavorable youth labor market outcomes on the supply side. Since many of the factors that can unlock the employment potential of the Swazi youth are on the demand side of the labor market, the paper examines the barriers to job creation and youth entrepreneurship. It concludes with experiences of other countries that could inform design of more effective interventions for youth employment in Swaziland.
