The Institute in 2003: An Overview The Kiel Institute for World Economics at the University of Kiel (IfW) is one of the world’s major centers for international economic policy research and documentation. The Institute’s main activities are economic research, economic policy consulting, and the documentation and provision of information about international economic relations. The Institute’s publications and services are addressed to academics in Germany and abroad as well as to decision-makers in both the public and private sector, and to those people in the general public inter- ested in domestic and international economic policy. The Institute’s Library is one of the world’s largest libraries for economics and social sciences, and the Institute’s Economic Archives have a comprehensive collection of newspaper articles. The Institute, founded by Bernhard Harms in 1914 as the Königliches Institut für Seeverkehr und Weltwirtschaft, has its roots in the Staatswissenschaftliches Seminar at the University of Kiel, which was established in 1899. In 1934, the Institute was given its present name, Institut für Weltwirtschaft. Today the Insti- tute is affiliated with the University of Kiel, but is still an independent institu- tion. It is a member of the Wissenschaftsgemeinschaft Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (WGL), which unites institutes and service providers that are of supra- regional importance. In the field of academic research, the Institute focuses on applied economic research. The Institute engages especially in the empirical analysis of current economic policy issues, in the identification and theoretical analysis of newly emerging economic phenomena, and in preemptive innovative economic thinking to find new solutions to economic policy problems. In 2003, numerous research projects were initiated, followed up, and completed. The resulting publications were presented at several international and national con- ferences and were published in various studies and contributions to renowned eco- nomic journals. Further, due to improved online access, the services offered by the Library, which also functions as the German National Library of Economics (ZBW) and is also a member of the WGL, and the Economic Archives were in- creasingly taken advantage of by both domestic and foreign users. Institutions which have a service function for research such as the ZBW are evaluated by the WGL Senate at least every seven years. At the end of November, the Senate adopted the evaluation given by a WGL group which visited the ZBW in May and recommended that the federal government and the state governments 4 The Institute in 2003: An Overview should continue to support the ZBW. The recommendation is based on the ap- praisal that in recent years the ZBW has developed along positive lines. The Institute attributes great importance to the advanced training of economists. It offers an international postgraduate program and encourages the regular ex- change of research results by hosting conferences, workshops, and guest lectures. In 2003, numerous research associates at the Institute were engaged in work on their doctoral dissertations, some on their Habilitation. Jörn Kleinert, Andrea Schertler, and Hubert Strauß, who had been a researcher in the Business Cycles Department until May 2002, were awarded doctorates at the Universität Kiel. Claudia M. Buch was appointed to tenured position at the University of Tübingen. Several economists from the Institute were awarded prizes for their outstanding endeavors. Holger Brauer was awarded the Fakultätspreis der Wirtschafts- und Sozialwissenschaftlichen Fakultät der Universität Kiel for his dissertation “The Real Exchange Rate and Prices of Traded Goods in OECD Countries,” and Jörn Kleinert was awarded the Erich-Schneider-Preis des Instituts für Volkswirtschafts- lehre der Universität Kiel for his dissertation “The Role of Multinational Enter- prises in Globalization.” Herbert Giersch was granted the Wissenschaftspreis of the City of Kiel. Horst Siebert was awarded the Verdienstorden of the Federal Republic of Germany by the German president. At the end of the year, the Institute had 272 employees, 57.7 percent of which were female and 26.8 percent of which were part-time employees. Of the total, 128 employees worked in the President’s Department, the Information, Editorial, and External Relations Department, and the five research departments. 117 worked in the Library, and 27 in the Administration. Of the 272 employees, 79 were academics and 193 were nonacademics, 4 of which were trainees. Several staffing changes took place in 2003. In April, Horst Siebert, president of the Institute, retired after 14 years at the Institute. His holistic approach to in- vestigating global economic processes and structures, and their driving forces, has shaped the public perception of the Institute and has given depth and breadth to the work conducted at the Institute. His analyses and recommendations have received a great deal of attention, not only at home, but in numerous other coun- tries as well. His textbooks on economics have been translated into numerous languages and have been used to teach students of economics in many countries. Hans-Georg Glaeßer, head of the Asia department of the Library since 1982, also retired. Matthias Lücke, head of the Industrialization and Foreign Trade Research Group, returned to the Institute after having been active for three years in an IMF department which analyzed development in countries of the former Soviet Union. The Institute in 2003: An Overview 5 In May 2003, a new Employee Council of the Institute was elected, the chairman of which is again Wolfgang Weskamp; his deputies are Hermann Dick and Christiane Krieger-Boden. In January 2003, Nora Grabsch was appointed Equal Opportunity for Women representative of the Institute; her deputy in 2003 was Abel Koch-Klose. As of 2004, Jana Daleske will be her new deputy. In September 2003, Bernhard Heitger died unexpectedly at the age of 54. He had been an economist in the Growth, Structural Change, and International Division of Labor Department since 1975, and had published internationally well-read papers about the relationship between growth and public activities. II. Research and Advisory Activities 1. Main Areas of Research The Institute’s central area of research is the international division of labor from a static and dynamic point of view. The Institute analyzes the sectoral and spatial allocation of goods, services, and factors of production. In particular, it analyzes the endowments of countries, including their environment, the changes in these endowments over time, and the international interdependencies between mone- tary and fiscal policies and between business cycles of various countries. In analyzing these phenomena, special emphasis is given to the consideration of institutional settings in national as well as international terms and to the incentive and political economy systems that are part of these settings. Research in 2003 concentrated on the following topics: Z worldwide locational competition and the effects of globalization on national goods and factor markets, Z global regulatory systems and their reforms, Z trends, causes, and consequences of the “new economy,” Z the integration of developing countries, newly industrializing countries, and transformation countries into the international division of labor and the multilateral trade order, Z the effects of economic reforms in developing countries on the distribution of income, Z the effects of international environmental and climate policies, Z the analysis of currency and financial markets and international capital flows, Z European integration, with special emphasis on its eastern enlargement and the monetary policy of the European Central Bank, Z international variation in educational performance and its determinants, Z reforms of labor markets and social security systems in industrialized coun- tries, especially in Germany, Z national and international business cycle analysis and forecasting, Z structural adjustment problems in eastern Germany, Z fiscal policy and subsidies in Germany, Z regional growth

  • Expertise of July 1, 2000 Topic: Reform of European Anti
    Expertise of July 1, 2000 Topic: Reform of European Anti-Trust Policy Meeting in a number of sessions, the last on July 1, 2000, the Federal Ministry of Economics and Technology’s Economic Advisory Council addressed the topic of the Reform of European Anti-Trust Policy and subsequently adopted the following position. In earlier analyses of German and European competition policy, the Advisory Council outlined the economic and legal reasons why, within a market economy, there must be a fundamental and effective prohibition of cartels. In connection with the establishment of the Economic and Mone- tary Union, the Member States, in the Maastricht Treaty, for the first time established as a legal tenet that the Community was committed to upholding a system of open markets based on free competition (further details in: Advisory Council paper of August 1994 entitled “Ordnungspoli- tische Orientierung für die Europäische Union”). Although the competition rules already in force remained unaffected by this step, it was stressed that the effective functioning of the instruments of monetary policy as set forth in the EC Treaty depended on the existence of competitive struc- tures. The purpose of the system of undistorted competition, which was enacted into law by the EC Treaty and includes a prohibition of cartels under Art. 81 EC Treaty, was to guarantee these prerequisites. 1. The EC Commission has announced fundamental changes in the manner in which cartels would be assessed. Its White Paper of May 12, 1999 (Official Journal C 321) proposes a Regulation based on Art. 83 EC Treaty. This measure is aimed at changing the present rules by which the cartel prohibition in Art.

  • Audit Committee Quarterly II/2018: Geschäftsmodell
    Audit Committee Quarterly II / 2018 DAS MAGAZIN FÜR CORPORATE GOVERNANCE Gefördert durch Audit Committee Institute e.V. GESCHÄFTSMODELL EDITORIAL Deutschland – Zeit für digitale Geschäftsmodelle Die vierte Revolution der Industrialisierung ist in vollem Gange. Im Gegensatz zu den vorhergehenden industri- ellen Revolutionen mit ihren konkreten Treibern Dampf- maschine, Fließband und Computer ist dieses Zeitalter der sog. Digitalisierung schwer einzugrenzen. Eine Er- kenntnis hat sich trotz allem mittlerweile in den deut- schen Vorstandsetagen durchgesetzt: Digitale Trans- formation ist heute keine Option mehr, sondern Not- wendigkeit. Dennoch betrachten einige Unternehmen die Digitalisierung aufgrund von Erfolgen aus der Ver- gangenheit noch immer durch eine reine Technologie- brille. So sind deutsche Unternehmen gut darin, ihre bestehenden Produkte und Prozesse durch inkremen- telle Innovationen an neue Technologien anzupassen oder sie mithilfe neuer Technologien etwas schneller, besser, effizienter zu gestalten. Doch reicht das? Deutschland ist ein Land zahlreicher Weltmarktführer klassischer Wirtschaftszweige, in denen innovative Geschäftsmodelle das Potenzial haben, industriever- ändernde Umwälzungen auszulösen. Marktbeherr- schende Digitalriesen wie die GAFAs (Google, Amazon, Facebook und Apple) sucht man hierzulande vergeb- lich. Und auch wenn sich Berlin als deutsches Start- up-Mekka rühmt, so kann es sich mit Hubs wie dem Silicon Valley, Tel Aviv oder der aufstrebenden Szene im asiatischen Raum nicht messen.

  • Exemplary Economists of the Twentieth Century a Review Article of 36 Economists' Autobiographies
    Exemplary Economists of the Twentieth Century A Review Article of 36 Economists’ Autobiographies Peter Groenewegen* Roger Backhouse and Robert Middleton, eds, Exemplary Economists, Volume 1, North America, Volume 2, Europe, Asia and Australasia, Cheltenham and Northampton, Mass., Edward Elgar Publishing, 2000, pp.xxiii+452, xxiii+441; ISBN 1 85 898 954 0, 1 85 898 960 4. Price: £65 per volume. As the editors comment in their introduction (which, incidentally, is the same in both volumes) publishing collections of the autobiographies of well-known economists is now a highly fashionable activity. Among the more recent ventures in the field they mention Szenberg (1992); Breit and Spencer (1995) dealing with Nobel Laureates; Kregel (1988, 1989) which reprints many of the autobiographies originally published in Banca nazionale del lavoro; four volumes of commissioned ‘Makers of Modern Economics’ edited by Heertje (1993, 1995, 1997, 1999); and a series of interviews with economists edited by Tribe (1997), by Snowdon and Vane (1999) and by Ibanez (1999). The 36 autobiographies included here (or, more precisely, 35 since one, chapter 18 on Ashenfelter, is an interview) have been drawn from the contributors to the Elgar series of collected papers, Economics of the Twentieth Century. As the appendix (reproduced in both volumes) indicates, not all of these contributors are included. On my count, 69 economists in all are represented in this series through their collected essays, that is, almost twice as many potential ‘exemplary economists’ as appear in these volumes. I note also that the 36 include the editors of this series for Elgar, Mark Blaug and Mark Perlman.

M. (‘Max’) Corden to Economics. We focus on three main fields: trade theory and practice, especially his pioneering work on the theory of effective protection; open economy macroeconomics, including exchange rate policy, the international monetary system, Dutch Disease, and economic crises; and Australian economic policy. We emphasize Max’s motivation for working on these topics, as he sought to understand real-world economic issues and challenges, and to employ economic theory and expositional clarity in search of policy reform. We also draw attention to his personal life history, and how it has shaped his thinking on major economic and political questions.
