Download or read book The Role of Economic Advisers in Israel's Economic Policy written by Daniel Schiffman and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-03-06 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book illustrates the role of international economic advisors in the development of Israel’s economic policies. Based on extensive archival and historical research, it presents case studies on the policy impacts of the world-renowned advisors Michal Kalecki, Abba Lerner, Richard Kahn, Milton Friedman, Herbert Stein and Stanley Fischer. The authors evaluate the contributions of these advisors to policy developments in various fields, including international trade and capital flows, exchange rates, fiscal and monetary policy, industrial policy and labor relations. Readers will discover a wealth of previously unpublished information on these advisors’ activities, perspectives on policy and interactions with policymakers and the public. Using the Israeli experience as a guide, the authors subsequently derive general hypotheses regarding the conditions that are conducive to the success of economic advisors.
Book Synopsis The Political Economy of Israel by : Yakir Plessner
Download or read book The Political Economy of Israel written by Yakir Plessner and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1994-01-01 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book constitutes the first attempt at a comprehensive description, history, and analysis of Israel's economy. Plessner examines events of the past two decades and advances the hypothesis that problems within the Israeli economy can be explained by the extent of its departure from the institutions and rules that govern predominantly market economies. He argues that Israel is unusual in that it affords an opportunity to analyze a socialized economy embedded in a democratic society. Individual chapters describe Israel's economic growth and stagnation, the government's domination of capital and credit markets, and the absence of a truly independent private sector. The concluding chapter evaluates the stabilization program of the 1980s and its aftermath and provides a prognosis for the future. Told within the framework of the story of Zionism and the creation of the Jewish state, this book answers the question of why the Israeli economy finds itself today in the same state in which it has languished since 1973.
Book Synopsis The Political Economy of Israel by : Ira Sharkansky
Download or read book The Political Economy of Israel written by Ira Sharkansky and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-29 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The resurgence of political economy as an important topic reflects the deep interpenetration of politics and economics. There are few economic issues of consequence that are not shaped by government decisions, and there are few governments whose agendas are not dominated by economic issues. No country reflects the interpenetration of politics and economics as much as Israel.In this analysis, Ira Sharkansky examines the extensive involvement of the Israeli government in the country's economy, reflected in governmental expenditures that exceed the gross national product, intimate links between governmental activity and Israeli's standard of living, high inflation and other economic problems, and policymaking behaviors that include entrepreneurialism and indirection. He explores the strategic points of Israel's political economy, pursuing a qualitative analysis of Israeli problems and strategies for dealing with them. Those interested in policy analysis, political economy, comparative politics, comparative public administration, and Israeli politics will find this book invaluable.Contents: The Political Economy of Israel; What is the Israeli State?

Book Synopsis The Israeli Economy by : Joseph Zeira
Download or read book The Israeli Economy written by Joseph Zeira and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-11-23 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Based on over twenty years of research, The Israeli Economy offers a broad survey and analysis of an economy that has grown at an extraordinary rate, has been subject to large external shocks, and that has been a part of extensive conflict throughout its history. The book focuses on four main themes: understanding the secret of the rapid growth of the Israeli economy, evaluating the cost of the Israeli-Arab conflict, studying Israel as a country subject to large external shocks whose effects can be tested, and examining the effects of neoliberal policy on economic performance and inequality. Originally published in Hebrew in February 2018, the book has been restructured and framed for an English-speaking audience, omitting many details meant for Israeli readers and focusing more on the lessons that people from other countries can draw from Israel as a case study. The book draws on data from the Israeli Central Bureau of Statistics and the Statistical Appendices of the annual Bank of Israel reports, as well as from the Israeli Parliament, the research center of the Knesset, and publications from US Congress. In The Israeli Economy, Joseph Zeira provides a comprehensive economic history of a country with an important role in the Middle East, arguing that it's impossible to understand the region without understanding Israel and its phenomenal success"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1991, during a significant stagnation in the Israeli economy, this title discusses the causes of the economic downturn, and assesses the country’s prospects. Throughout, Aharoni measures the economic problems Israel has endured against the social and economic successes it has been able to achieve. He highlights the incongruities of the aspirations of Israel’s founders and supporters and the reality, as well as the interplay of economic and political forces that have shaped this. With a detailed introduction to the ideology and development of the state of Israel, and a history of the Israeli economy and its institutional structure, this title will be of significant value to any student studying the economic history of Israel and the Middle East.
Book Synopsis The Israeli Central Bank by : Daniel Maman
Download or read book The Israeli Central Bank written by Daniel Maman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2011-03-01 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the local and global political and institutional processes that have led to the strengthening of the Israeli central bank within the context of the now predominant neoliberal regime. Using Israel as a case study to identify broader patterns around the world, the authors examine the strengthening of central banks as a key dimension of the institutionalisation of the global regime. Drawing on an in-depth analysis of the political economy of the Israeli central bank since the mid-1980s, the authors show how the Bank of Israel mobilized global logics in order to strengthen its position vis-à-vis competing actors, especially the Ministry of Finance, and to promote the institutionalisation of the neoliberal regime. Employing a conflict-centered theoretical perspective, the authors elucidate the character of this institutional transformation and the mechanisms that were involved. Chapters examine the different phases of the process of central bank strengthening, focusing on the actors involved, the interactions between them, and the political strategies they employed, and analyse the consequences of the process for the shift in macro-economic management and in the mode of state involvement in the economy. Addressing the political and institutional processes that have led to the fundamental transformation of Israeli political economy, this book is a valuable addition to the existing literature on the Israeli banking system, political economy and globalisation.

This book was released on 2008-10 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2008 in the subject Business economics - Economic Policy, grade: 1.7, University of Applied Sciences Osnabr ck (Osnabrueck University of Applied Sciences), 26 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: Israel is a relatively young country and economy. In its short life of 60 years, its economy has matured through continuing crises and has become strong and well diversified. Almost all years of the country's existence it has enjoyed healthy economic growth. Apart from these achievements, the country and the economy are facing serious problems. The conflict with the Palestinians, which has been dragging on for decades, in the new millennium has intensified and became more and more violent. Besides the obvious humanitarian and political consequences, this conflict also has many economic implications - all but positive, both for Israel and the Palestinians. Both parties are paying a high economic price for the continuation of this conflict - with falling GDP's, loss of jobs, sanctions on one another and most importantly - the huge unfulfilled potential that lies in economic cooperation between the two. Israel is also facing an internal economic and social problem - the Ultra-orthodox Jews population group. Due to their unique lifestyle of abiding vigorously to religion, they almost do not participate in the Israeli labour market, rely heavily on government help and also do dot join the army like all other Israeli Jews. This group contributes to the poverty rate in an unproportional manner, being much poorer than other Israelis. Due to very high fertility rate, the Ultra-orthodox, who used to be just a small minority, are on the way to become almost a quarter of the population in two decades. This situation demands some urgent changes.

Book Synopsis Monetary Policy During the Coronavirus Crisis Address to the Israel Economic Association Conference by : Amir Yaron
Download or read book Monetary Policy During the Coronavirus Crisis Address to the Israel Economic Association Conference written by Amir Yaron and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bank of Israel began planning for the coronavirus crisis even before anyone could assess the extent to which the crisis would develop. On February 2, in the entire world outside of China, there was one death as a result of the coronavirus, and just 146 verified cases of the disease. On that day, I gave instructions for the Bank of Israel to establish an interdepartmental team to begin analyzing the implications of the crisis for the Israeli economy. Since then, the pace of developments has been exponential. A great many things that none of us ever imagined have taken place, and the Bank of Israel found itself taking steps that, at the beginning of February, had seemed almost fanciful. Even though the Bank of Israel was very active both in its role as economic advisor to the government and in its supervisory roles, my address today will focus on the central bank's classic function-- monetary policy.
Book Synopsis Richard Kahn and Israeli Economic Policy, 1957 and 1962 by : Daniel Schiffman
Download or read book Richard Kahn and Israeli Economic Policy, 1957 and 1962 written by Daniel Schiffman and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper documents Richard Kahn's role as an unofficial advisor to the Israeli Government, using archival and published sources. In 1957, Kahn predicted that the EEC customs union would harm Israel's trade and that the EEC would reject Israel's application for Associate Membership. He proposed a major reform of the COLA that would significantly reduce real wage protection and move Israel closer to the Swedish wage system. In 1962, he took a neutral position regarding the sustainability of Israel's international imbalances. He also criticized Israeli policymakers for overestimating the potential benefits of an Israel-EEC commercial agreement, and argued that the EEC would make reducing Israel's trade deficit more difficult, even if the UK did not join. Ultimately, Israeli policymakers ignored Kahn's advice: They continued to push for EEC Associate Membership and failed to adopt his proposal for COLA reform. In that sense, Kahn was unsuccessful as an advisor, but he was probably successful in the more limited sense of helping government officials attain greater clarity on economic issues.
Download or read book Start-Up Nation written by Dan Senor and published by McClelland & Stewart. This book was released on 2011-03-01 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating expert look at Israel’s meteoric rise in the global economy — with timely hints for a world reeling from financial crisis Start-Up Nation addresses the trillion-dollar question: How is it that Israel — a country of 7.1 million, surrounded by enemies, in a constant state of war, with no natural resources — produces more start-up companies than large, peaceful nations like Canada, Japan, China, India, and the U.K.? With the savvy of foreign policy insiders, Senor and Singer examine Israeli culture and government to reveal the secrets behind the world’s first ever “start-up nation.” As countries across the globe restart their own economies, and as businesses try to re-energize their entrepreneurial spirit, we can all look to Israel for some impressive, surprising clues.
