Gestärkt aus der Krise - Wachstumspotenziale von Bildung, Innovation und IKT-Infrastruktur
Achtung: Geänderter Veranstaltungsort: Berlin
Type:
Ifo Conference
Print view
Topic:
Die Volkswirtschaft stockt. Das Konjunkturprogramm der Bundesregierung sieht Milliardeninvestitionen in Infrastruktur von der Sanierung der Schulen bis hin zum Ausbau des Breitbandnetzes vor. Das schafft kurzfristig Nachfrage, treibt aber langfristig die Staatsverschuldung in unbekannte Höhen. Kann der Staat auch ohne fiskalische Eingriffe privatwirtschaftliche Investitionen anregen und Wachstum generieren? Quellen modernen Wachstums in der Wissensgesellschaft bedeuten vor allem: Investitionen in den Wissensbestand der Bevölkerung (Bildung), Generierung und Vermarktung neuen Wissens (Innovation) und Kommunikation von Wissen (IKT-Infrastruktur). Darum hat wissensbasiertes makroökonomisches Wachstum wichtige Implikationen für die mikroökonomische Politik in den Bereichen Bildung, Innovation und IKT-Infrastruktur. Neuere Forschungsergebnisse belegen, dass der Staat in allen drei Bereichen durch bessere Rahmenbedingungen viele Möglichkeiten hat, Investitionen anzukurbeln. Diese Investitionen beleben nicht nur ohne zusätzliche Staatsverschuldung die Konjunktur, sondern heben die Volkswirtschaft auch langfristig auf einen höheren Wachstumspfad. Die Konferenz soll dieses Spannungsfeld zwischen staatlicher Regulierung und Marktlösungen aufzeigen.

CESifo Area Conference on Employment and Social Protection 2009
Type:
CESifo Area Conference
Print view
Topic:
The purpose of the workshop is to bring together CESifo members to present and discuss their ongoing research, and to stimulate interaction and co-operation between them. All CESifo Research Network members are invited to submit their papers, which may deal with any topic within the domains of employment and social protection. Both domains are to be broadly defined, the former including, in particular, issues of the organisation of labour. The latter domain, in turn, includes not only governmental institutions of the welfare state, like social insurance, but also other non-governmental institutions of the welfare society, such as the family, or charities and informal networks, social norms and altruistic behaviour. The keynote speaker will be Kjell Salvanes from The Norwegian School of Economics and Business Administration, Bergen.

Adressing The Crisis. The IMF's Regional Economic Outlook for Europe
Type:
Internal Seminar of the CESifo Group
Print view
Lecturer(s):
Helge Berger, IMF and FU Berlin
Topic:
The talk is about the just-released International Monetary Fund Regional Economic Outlook for Europe. This special event will provide an opportunity for an in-depth discussion and follow-up of the report's contents from a German perspective.
Europe is in a deep recession and unprecedented policies have been undertaken to address the crisis. Are the policies in place likely to be successful? And are they sufficiently coordinated for a tightly integrated region? This Spring's outlook argues that adverse feedback loops between the financial and real sectors and across borders will delay the recovery and create downside risks. To restore trust and confidence in financial markets additional and forceful policy action will be essential in the areas of loss recognition and recapitalization. Fiscal stimulus should help soften the downturn across the region, in particular if expectations of sustainability are anchored by efforts to strengthen medium-term strategies and fiscal frameworks. To be effective, policy actions will need to be strongly coordinated across advanced and emerging economies.

Venice Summer Institute: Rethinking the Privatisation of Social Security
Type:
CESifo Conference
Print view
Topic:
The well-functioning of the capital markets in the nineties brought to the public debate the issue of privatising social security. A key paradigm in this debate was that the capital markets, and especially the stock markets, can yield better riskadjusted returns than national pension schemes. The recent global turmoil in the financial markets undoubtedly calls for rethinking of the pros and cons of privatising social security. The purpose of this workshop is to attract original contributions on these issues. All contributions with applied/policy aspects are welcome.

Lecturer(s):
Dr. Wolfgang Quaisser (Akademie für Politische Bildung Tutzing), Dr. Joachim Ragnitz (ifo Institut für Wirtschaftsforschung, Niederlassung Dresden)
Topic:
Vor zwanzig Jahren, am 9. November 1989, fiel die Mauer und der Weg zur deutschen Einheit war bereitet. Nach der anfänglichen Euphorie erwies sich die Umgestaltung der ostdeutschen Gesellschaft und Wirtschaft weitaus schwieriger und kostenintensiver als erwartet. Nicht nur wirtschaftliche, sondern auch mentale Gräben mussten überwunden werden. Gewaltige Modernisierungsanstrengungen haben die Angleichung der Lebensverhältnisse in Ost und West deutlich vorangebracht, doch sind Einkommen und Produktivität in Ostdeutschland immer noch niedriger als in Westdeutschland. Aber auch soziokulturell und politisch bestehen markante Unterschiede zwischen den „alten“ und „neuen“ Bundesländern. Die Tagung versucht eine Bilanz der Deutschen Einheit nach 20 Jahren zu ziehen und sie im Kontext des 60. Jahrestages der Bundesrepublik Deutschland zu sehen.

Thesis 1: Human beings are making the earth increasingly warmer
Type:
Lecture series 'The Green Paradox'
Print view
Lecturer(s):
Hans-Werner Sinn
Topic:
Carbon dioxide itself is non-poisonous. It is only a problem if it accumulates in too great concentrations in the atmosphere. Then the greenhouse effect arises, and it becomes increasingly warmer. Since the beginning of the industrial age, an enormous increase in the carbon dioxide concentration has occurred, reaching an 800,000 year peak. In only a few decades the earth’s temperature will be higher than ever before in this period of time.

Thesis 2: Germany spends lots of money for Green electricity and still achieves little with this support because Europe already has an emissions market that has determined the amounts of emissions
Type:
Lecture series 'The Green Paradox'
Print view
Lecturer(s):
Hans-Werner Sinn
Topic:
Germany is a model country worldwide in the promotion of green electricity thanks to massive state subsidies. There is no greater concentration of wind turbines and solar-energy installations than in Germany. The energy tax, the feed-in rates for wind and solar electricity, support for combined heat and power (CHP) and many other measures cost billions of euros. However, this support has not been able to reduce the output of carbon dioxide in Europe because this is already predetermined by the emissions trading system. We only subsidise the dirty electricity of the other EU countries with these measures.

Hans-Werner Sinn
Topic:
For the production of biodiesel and bioethanol, gigantic expanses of farmland are used that could also be used for food production. The world hunger crises in 2007 and 2008 are due to the dramatic expansion of bioethanol production in the United States, which came about because of the rising oil prices. With the coupling of oil and food prices, mankind has entered a new, dramatic phase of its development, which later will be understood as a turning point.

Thesis 4: Germany is a wrong-way driver in terms of atomic energy and has no good arguments for this course
Type:
Lecture series 'The Green Paradox'
Print view
Lecturer(s):
Hans-Werner Sinn
Topic:
Germany is the only country worldwide that is adhering to a policy of withdrawal from atomic energy. France remains loyal to atomic electricity; in other countries the withdrawal has been rescinded. Currently, new atomic reactors are being built around Germany in many countries. Whoever condemns atomic electricity should not overlook the disadvantages of the other energy sources. Wind and solar electricity involve an extensive use of land. Electricity from coal requires gigantic subterranean storage for the carbon dioxide that is released to prevent it from harming the climate. Such storage is not available in sufficient amounts and it is not harmless. The final storage problem for liquid carbon dioxide is far greater than the final storage problem for atomic power waste.

Thesis 5: European climate policies have accelerated climate change because they have given the resource owners cause to extract their fossil fuels faster
Type:
Lecture series 'The Green Paradox'
Print view
Lecturer(s):
Hans-Werner Sinn
Topic:
European countries are spending lots of money to improve energy efficiency, to expand green electricity, to advance atomic energy, to build more economical cars and on other technical solutions with which they can curb their demand for fossil fuels. Green demand policy is ineffective, however, as long as other countries do not participate and as long as the resource owners do not reduce their supply. In fact, if the resource owners fear that green policies will become increasingly greener over the course of time and will reduce the rate of price increases for fossil fuels, green policies will even speed up resource extraction and climate change.

Only a worldwide emissions trading system and a source tax on the capital gains of the resource owners are suitable for effecting a postponement of resource extraction
Type:
Lecture series 'The Green Paradox'
Print view
Lecturer(s):
Hans-Werner Sinn
Topic:
Thesis 6:
Apart from afforestation, there are only two ways to stop climate change: either the carbon remains in the ground or it is returned to the ground after combustion. The most important method for trapping carbon in the ground and supporting sequestering is a worldwide system of emissions trading as is already practised in Europe. A recommended supplementary method is a source tax on the capital gains of the resource owners since this would give them a stimulus to leave their resources in the ground instead of transferring their gains to Swiss bank accounts.
