Brexit and the Euro Crisis: What Kind of Union Do We Want
The article deals with the two key issues that have been fundamentally changing the European Union - the crisis of Eurozone and the Brexit. The first part discusses the change of the original balance of power in the EU after the exit of Britain and its possible consequences, especially the strengthening of the relative position of France, and hence the French concept of the EU integration model (deeper federalization of the nucleus and the rest) …

Public policies against global warming: A supply side approach
The countries that have ratified the Kyoto Protocol have pledged to limit global warming by reducing the demand for fossil fuels. But what about supply? If suppliers do not react, demand reductions by a subset of countries are ineffective. They simply depress the world price of carbon and induce the environmental sinners to consume what the Kyoto countries have economized on. Even worse, if suppliers feel threatened by a gradual greening of econo…
The Welfare State and the Forces of Globalization
The emergence of the Asian tiger countries and the participation of the ex-Communist countries in world trade has reduced the equilibrium price of labor in western Europe and elsewhere. However, the actual price of labor hardly reacts, because the welfare state's minimum replacement incomes are fixed. The rigidity of wages causes pathological overreactions of the European economy in terms of excessive capital exports, excessive immigration and ex…
Ist Deutschland Noch Zu Retten
In der 7. Aufl. werden die aktuellsten politischen Beschlüsse zur deutschen Sozialreform argumentativ und rechnerisch berücksichtigt. Allerdings gibt es schon wieder neue, wie z.B. zur Gestaltung der Hinzuverdienstmöglichkeiten bei Hartz IV

Can National Banking Systems Compete?
»Vielmehr bietet [der Kommentar] auf höchstem Niveau eine substantielle Auseinandersetzung mit den Hintergründen, den Zusammenhängen, der Theorie und der Praxis des Grundgesetzes. Besseres lässt sich von einem Verfassungskommentar nicht sagen.“ Herbert Günther Staaatsanzeiger für das Land Hessen 2018 (50), 1494–1495

Risktaking, Limited Liability, and the Competition of Bank Regulators
Limited liability and asymmetric information between an investment bank and its lenders provide an incentive for a bank to undercapitalize and finance overly risky business projects. To counter this market failure, national governments have imposed solvency constraints on banks. However, these constraints may not survive in systems competition, as systems competition is likely to suffer from the same type of information asymmetry that induced the…
Public Finance and Public Policy in the New Century
Essays on the theory and practice of public finance and policy. The sixteen essays in this book were written to celebrate the ninetieth birthday of Richard Musgrave and to commemorate the tenth anniversary of CES, the Center for Economic Studies at the University of Munich. Musgrave is considered to be a founding father of modern public economics. He belongs to the intellectual tradition that views government as an instrument that can be used to …

Common Property Resources, Storage Facilities and Ownership Structures: A Cournot Model of the Oil Market
During the last decade economists have tried hard to convince Meadows and his followers that market forces do not tend to exhaust our natural resources too rapidly as compared with the requirements of an intertemporal Pareto optimum. It is well known now that, under well-defined property rights and correct price expectations, a competitive extraction industry brings about a Pareto-optimal depletion path, and it has been shown that oligopolistic a…
