Book excerpt: Die Kommunen sehen sich in einer globalisierten Welt einem härter gewordenen Wettbewerb um ansiedlungswillige Unternehmen ausgesetzt. Sie fragen sich, was den Unternehmen geboten werden muss, um sie für einen bestimmten Ort zu interessieren. Moderne Industrie- und Dienstleistungsbetriebe sind weit weniger als früher auf bestimmte Standorte angewiesen. Sie haben die Möglichkeit, freier zu entscheiden, wo sie ihre Leistungen erbringen wollen. Für eine Reihe von Kommunen ist die Lage mittlerweile prekär. Sie beherbergen Unternehmen, die seit alters her ansässig sind, deren Standortentscheidungen also lange zurückliegen. Bei geänderten Rahmenbedingungen können sich die Kommunen nicht sicher sein, dass die Unternehmen an ihren alten Standorten noch optimale Bedingungen vorfinden. Betriebserweiterungen werden andernorts vorgenommen, und im schlimmsten Fall wird der Standort ganz aufgegeben.Aus Sicht der Kommunen gilt es, den Faktoren nachzuspüren, die das Interesse der Unternehmen an einem Standort determinieren. Dabei sind die so genannten weichen Standortfaktoren in den letzten Jahren in das Blickfeld gerückt. Viele Kommunen haben Projekte gestartet, die weichen Faktoren ihrer Gebiete zu verbessern. Das spektakulärste ist das Projekt der Stadt Leipzig, die eine 400 qkm große Seenlandschaft errichtet (ausführlich in diesem Band). Aber wie wirkungsvoll sind Projekte zur Verbesserung der weichen Faktoren wirklich? Welche neuen wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnisse und Erfahrungen gibt es?
Book Synopsis Corporate Governance und Korruption by : Detlef Aufderheide
Download or read book Corporate Governance und Korruption written by Detlef Aufderheide and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Korruption wird zunehmend zu einer erheblichen Belastung für die gesellschaftliche und wirtschaftliche Entwicklung von Entwicklungs-, Schwellen- und auch Industrieländern. Unter Ökonomen war lange Zeit die Auffassung verbreitet, dass sie unter bestimmten Bedingungen als 'Deregulierungsinstrument' vorteilhafte Wirkungen zeigen könne. Heute wird jedoch erkannt und anerkannt, dass dabei ein ausschlaggebender Umstand übersehen wurde: Korruption stellt nicht nur die moralische Ordnung einer Gesellschaft in Frage. Sie zerstört zugleich nachhaltig ihre kodifizierten Institutionen, zu denen nicht zuletzt eine funktionierende Wettbewerbsordnung gehört. Die jeweils Beteiligten hoffen, auf diese Weise einen kurzfristigen Vorteil gegenüber Wettbewerbern zu erringen oder einen Nachteil auszugleichen. Oft erweist sich bereits diese Vermutung als Irrtum, während mittel- und langfristig Wohlstand und Wachstum und damit die Interessen aller Beteiligten und Betroffenen in erheblichem Maße beeinträchtigt werden. In Gestalt aktiver und passiver Bestechung wird Korruption nicht zuletzt zu einem wachsenden Problem für Unternehmungen, und hier insbesondere für solche, deren Geschäftstätigkeit weit über die Landesgrenzen hinausgeht. Es ist derzeit noch eine offene Frage, in welchem Maße und in welcher Form betroffene und beteiligte Unternehmungen selbst zu einer Überwindung der durch Korruption aufgeworfenen Probleme beitragen können und inwiefern sie auf die Beiträge anderer Akteure angewiesen sind. In diesen Fragen ergeben sich zahlreiche Anknüpfungspunkte zu anderen Forschungsfeldern und Problembereichen, insbesondere im Hinblick auf die allgemeine Debatte um wirksame Regeln guter Unternehmensführung (Corporate Governance), die von den Unternehmungen selbst, aber auch durch staatliche Instanzen gesetzt werden können und zugleich in der öffentlichen Diskussion stehen. Vor diesem Hintergrund bietet es sich an, in einem disziplinenübergreifenden Diskurs aktuelle Forschungsergebnisse zu präsentieren und - auch in Bezug auf ihre praktische Anwendung - zu prüfen. Genau diesem Vorhaben dient der vorliegende Sammelband, in dem moderne ökonomische Lösungsvorschläge im Dialog mit Theologen, Politikwissenschaftlern, Juristen und Philosophen sowie unter Beteiligung von Praktikern diskutiert werden.

Book Synopsis Reviving the Invisible Hand by : Deepak Lal
Download or read book Reviving the Invisible Hand written by Deepak Lal and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2010-12-16 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reviving the Invisible Hand is an uncompromising call for a global return to a classical liberal economic order, free of interference from governments and international organizations. Arguing for a revival of the invisible hand of free international trade and global capital, eminent economist Deepak Lal vigorously defends the view that statist attempts to ameliorate the impact of markets threaten global economic progress and stability. And in an unusual move, he not only defends globalization economically, but also answers the cultural and moral objections of antiglobalizers. Taking a broad cross-cultural and interdisciplinary approach, Lal argues that there are two groups opposed to globalization: cultural nationalists who oppose not capitalism but Westernization, and "new dirigistes" who oppose not Westernization but capitalism. In response, Lal contends that capitalism doesn't have to lead to Westernization, as the examples of Japan, China, and India show, and that "new dirigiste" complaints have more to do with the demoralization of their societies than with the capitalist instruments of prosperity. Lal bases his case on a historical account of the rise of capitalism and globalization in the first two liberal international economic orders: the nineteenth-century British, and the post-World War II American. Arguing that the "new dirigisme" is the thin edge of a wedge that could return the world to excessive economic intervention by states and international organizations, Lal does not shrink from controversial stands such as advocating the abolishment of these organizations and defending the existence of child labor in the Third World.
Book Synopsis The Foundations of Economics by : Walter Eucken
Download or read book The Foundations of Economics written by Walter Eucken and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE FIRST GERMAN edition of this book appeared in 1940. Since then the book has gone through five more editions and has been translated into Spanish and Italian. The present English translation is based on the sixth German edition. The author was Professor of Economics at the University of Freiburg, Germany. Professor Eucken was a student at a time when the Historical School dominated the teaching of econo mics at the German universities. Although, at the beginning of his career, he did some work along the lines of the Historical School, neither the ~ims nor the methods of historical research the field of economics as practised by the representatives in of the Historical School satisfied him; and the fact that the members of this school were unable to explain the causes of economic events such as the German inflation after World War I was an added reason for him to turn to economic theory. He became, among German economists, the foremost opponent of the Historical School, which he criticised in several publica tions. Through his wrItings and his teaching he contributed his share to the revival of interest in economic theory which was noticeable in the 'twenties. And he was one of the few economists left in Germany who helped to keep this interest alive during the 'thirties and during World War II. During this time he published Kapitaltheoretische Untersuchungen (1936), and the present volume, which immediately gave rise to an extensive discussion in German economic journals.
Book Synopsis The Theory of Capitalism in the German Economic Tradition by : Peter Koslowski
Download or read book The Theory of Capitalism in the German Economic Tradition written by Peter Koslowski and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theory of capitalism and of the economic order is the central topic of the German economic tradition in the 20th century. Capitalism has not only been the topic for Marxist economics and for the Frankfurt School but also for the Historical School and for the postmarxist theory of capitalism in Ordo- and Neo-Liberalism as well as in Solidarism. The question of the foundations of the economic order of the market economy and of capitalism as well as the problem whether a third path between capitalism and social ism is possible occupied this tradition from the Historical School to Ordo Liberalism and the theory of the social market economy. The theory of capitalism and of the social market economy as well as the critique and reform developed in this theoretical tradition is important for the theory of economic systems as well as for today's problems of the eco nomic order. Its relevance for the present world economy is visible in the discussions whether there exist different models of capitalism and whether they can be described as the Anglo-American and as the Rhenish model of capitalism influenced by the thought of the German economic tradition. Michel Albert, the author of this classification, gave the key-word in his book Capitalism against Capitalism. The papers of this book can help to clarify this debate by giving a first hand introduction to some of the main economic thinkers of capitalism.
Download or read book Sustainability written by Felix Ekardt and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-07-29 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book proposes a holistic transdisciplinary approach to sustainability as a subject of social sciences. At the same time, this approach shows new ways, as perspectives of philosophy, political science, law, economics, sociology, cultural studies and others are here no longer regarded separately. Instead, integrated perspectives on the key issues are carved out: Perspectives on conditions of transformation to sustainability, on key instruments and the normative questions. This allows for a concise answer to urgent and controversial questions such as the following: Is the EU an environmental pioneer? Is it possible to achieve sustainability by purely technical means? If not: will that mean to end of the growth society? How to deal with the follow-up problems? How will societal change be successful? Are political power and capitalism the main barriers to sustainability? What is the role of emotions and conceptions of normality in the transformation process? To which degree are rebound and shifting effects the reason why sustainability politics fail? How much climate protection can be claimed ethically and legally e.g. on grounds of human rights? And what is freedom? Despite all rhetoric, the weak transition in energy, climate, agriculture and conservation serves as key example in this book. It is shown how the Paris Agreement is weak with regard to details and at the same time overrules the growth society by means of a radical 1,5-1,8 degrees temperature limit. It is shown how emissions trading must – and can – be reformed radically. It is shown why CSR, education, cooperation and happiness research are overrated. And we will see what an integrated politics on climate, biodiversity, nitrogen and soil might look like. This book deals with conditions of transformation, governance instruments, ethics and law of sustainability. The relevance of the humanities to sustainability has never before been demonstrated so vividly and broadly as here. And in every area it opens up some completely new perspectives. (Prof. Dr. Dr. h.c. mult. Ernst Ulrich von Weizsäcker, Club of Rome, Honorary President) Taking a transdisciplinary perspective, the book canvasses the entire spectrum of issues relevant to sustainability. A most valuable and timely contribution to the debate. (Prof. Dr. Klaus Bosselmann, University of Auckland, Author of “The Principle of Sustainability”) This books breathes life into the concept of sustainability. Felix Ekardt tears down the barriers between disciplines and builds a holistic fundament for sustainablility; fit to guide long-term decision-making on the necessary transformation and societal change. (Prof. Dr. Christina Voigt, Oslo University, Dept. of Public and International Law)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Friedrich Nietzsche’s influence on the development of modern social sciences has not been well documented. This volume reconsiders some of Nietzsche’s writings on economics and the science of state, pioneering a line of research up to now unavailable in English. The authors intend to provoke conversation and inspire research on the role that this much misunderstood philosopher and cultural critic has played – or should play – in the history of economics.
Book Synopsis Poverty and the Millennium Development Goals by : Alberto Cimadamore
Download or read book Poverty and the Millennium Development Goals written by Alberto Cimadamore and published by Zed Books Ltd.. This book was released on 2016-02-15 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) pass their 2015 deadline and the international community begins to discuss the future of UN development policy, Poverty and the Millennium Development Goals brings together leading economists from both the global North and South to provide a much needed critique of the prevailing development agenda. By examining current development efforts, goals and policies, it exposes the structurally flawed and misleading measurements of poverty and hunger on which these efforts have been based, and which have led official sources to routinely underestimate the scale of world poverty even as the global distribution of wealth becomes ever more imbalanced.
Book Synopsis Deutsche Bank: The Global Hausbank, 1870 – 2020 by : Werner Plumpe
Download or read book Deutsche Bank: The Global Hausbank, 1870 – 2020 written by Werner Plumpe and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-03-05 with total page 754 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive history of one of the major players in the world of international finance. Over the course of its 150-year history, Deutsche Bank has established itself as a major player in the world of international finance, but has also been confronted by numerous challenges that have changed the face of Europe – from two world wars, to the rise and subsequent fall of communism. In this major work on the bank's history, Werner Plumpe, Alexander Nützenadel and Catherine R. Schenk deliver a vibrant account of the measures the bank undertook in order to address the profound upheavals of the period, as well as the diverse and unusual demands it had to face. These included the First World War, which brought the world's first period of globalization to a sudden and dramatic end, but also the development of the predominantly national framework within which the bank had to operate from 1914 until the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989. More recently, the focus has shifted back to European and global activities, with Deutsche Bank forging new paths into the Anglo-American capital markets business – so opening another extraordinary chapter for the bank.
Book Synopsis The Political Economy of European Integration by : Finn Laursen
Download or read book The Political Economy of European Integration written by Finn Laursen and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-12-11 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of European integration produced much scholarly debate in the 1950s and '60s. The following two decades saw few works on European integration that included more elaborate discussions of theory and methodology; most studies in that period were fairly descriptive. In recent years there has been renewed theoretical interest in European integration. This book, however, is one of the first to discuss and apply various political-economy approaches explicitly to integration, including classical integration theory and modern public choice theories. Areas covered include common policies and decision making, as well as the external relations of the EU. The influence of the European Parliament, the concept of subsidiarity, trade policy, Economic and Monetary Union, reform of the Common Agricultural Policy, relations with EFTA and Eastern European countries, as well as enlargement, are all discussed. Audience: Of interest to both scholars and policy makers concerned with these issues.
Book Synopsis Ecodesign by : Karine Van Doorsselaer
Download or read book Ecodesign written by Karine Van Doorsselaer and published by Carl Hanser Verlag GmbH Co KG. This book was released on 2021-07-12 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ecodesign means integrating environmental factors into the design process of all types of products, from toys, packaging, household appliances to industrial products like compressors. It requires life cycle thinking, with the environmental impact minimized at all stages of the product cycle, from the extraction of raw materials to end of use. Ecodesign is also a key to success in the transition to a circular economy model. The ecodesign rules of thumb are a guide to develop products that fit in the circular economy. This unique book serves as a key guide for designers, organizations, governments, companies, or anybody else with an interest in a sustainable future, by addressing three main topics: First, ecodesign is explained for what it is and how it fits with the necessity for a sustainable planet. Second, ecodesign is shown to be a coherent and practical process with a plan and tools that can be used to provide solutions for the environmental challenges the world faces. Third, the impact of the ecodesign approach is elaborated for enterprises, governments, and consumers. Both legislation and consumer pressure for more sustainable goods and services require industry and academia to come up with meaningful solutions that consider economic, societal, and environmental aspects alike. This book provides the necessary clarity and tools to assess current products and support and inspire design of new ones to minimize the environmental impact and improve the circularity. Contents: * Necessity of Ecodesign * Emergence of Ecodesign and the Circular Economy Model * Design for X * Ecodesign Tools * Ecodesign in the Product Development Process * Stimulating Ecodesign * Ecodesign and Entrepreneurship * Ecodesign and Governance * Ecodesign and Consumers
