In cases where only a qualified majority can be secured for a Com­ mission proposal normally requiring unanimous approval, Borschette suggests that the decision become binding at least for those member states that had backed the proposal. For.the dissident countries the Commission would propose transitional steps until these states, too, could accept the decision. The transitional measures could be agreed upon either by the Connni.ssion or the Council. Borschette believes that adoption of his recommenda­ tion would revive some 350 draft proposals now stalled in the Council, mostly directives seeking to harmonize nation­ al rules in various sectors. No action has been forthcom­ ing on them either because the Treaty of Rome requires unanimous adoption - as provided, for instance, by Article 100 on all harmonization proposals (Common Market Reports, Par. 3301) - or because a member state cannot be outvoted on issues conflicting with its own "vital interests." The latter clause goes back to the 1966 Council resolution amounting to a de facto amendment to the Treaty following France's boycott of the Council sessions. As the head of the Commission's directorate of compe­ tition, Borschette is of course aware that his idea, if ac- --------This issue ls in two pans, eonsistlng of 136 pages.

EVROMARKET NEWS - p. 2 • EC Stalemates cepted, could entail some discrimination and distortion of (contd.) competition: member states that complied with, say, a tech­ nical directive could temporarily block imports of certain products from states that had opposed the directive. But even this drawback, Borschette believes, would be prefera­ ble to the Community's present state of stagnation. Other Commission officials so far have declined to comment on Borschette's concept, which he outlined at the recent Luxembourg Trade Fair (Corronon Ma:t'ket Reports~Pa:t>, 9655), But it obviously will have to be seriously con­ sidered in Brussels, especially since it also would amount to a Treaty amendment. Nevertheless, the Commission is pondering a number of other options as well in efforts to break the impasse in the Council, Luxembourg: The unexpected results of Luxembourg's parliamentary elec­ Elections Bring tions on May 26 may lead to the formation of a government Surprise Shift that excludes the conservative Christian Socialists for the to the Left first time in more than half a century. With the loss of three mandates, the party now holds only 18 of the 59 seats in Parliament. (The number of seats in the assembly had been raised from 56 to 59 as a result of Luxembourg's low­ ering the voting age from 21 to 18 years.) The winners of the elections were the Socialist Work­ ers' Party, which drew 29% of the vote and now holds 17 • seats, and the Liberals, with 22.1% and 14 seats. The chances of a coalition administratioTh without the Christian Socialists would depend on the finding of a common base by the Liberals and the Socialist Workers' Party, This alli­ ance possibly could be joined by the Social Democrats, who polled 9.1% of the vote and wound up with five mandates, one less than before. The Grand Duchy, the Community's smallest member state with a population of only 350,000, had been previously gov­ erned by a coalition of the Christian Socialists and the Liberals, resting on a 32-member majority in Parliament, In fact, the Christian Socialists had been Luxembourg's governing party for 55 years, and their Prime Minister, Pierre Werner, had held his office since 1959, Germany: The German Bundestag's tax committee, after weeks of mara­ Compromise on thon sessions, finally has returned the individual income Income Tax tax reform bill to the floor for adoption, but not without Reform Bill some heavy editing of the government's original proposal. A number of amendments written into the measure would bene­ fit individual as well as corporate taxpayers, One of them concerns maximum deductions allowed for business gifts: the government wanted to limit the deduction to DM 10 for each gift item, while the Opposition wanted DM 100, The compro­ mise version puts the limit at DM 50, with the provision • •EUROMARKET NEWS - p, 3 Income Tax that each item must be readily identifiable as a promotion­ (contd.) al gift (by bearing the imprint of the company's name, etc.) Another bone of contention was the deductibility of business expenses such as luncheons. The government, bound by a campaign promise, had planned to eliminate this tax privilege once and for all, especially since it is fre­ quently abused. But the tax committee insisted that "rea­ sonable" expenses should continue to be deductible, although the taxpayer claiming the deduction would be re­ quired to list on a special form the business partner's name, purpose of the meeting, and the proprietor's endorse­ ment, in addition to the amount and date. Tax committee members are not too optimistic about the future of the measure in its entirety. The bill is bound to wind up in conference· again because no draft tax legis­ lation can become law without approval of the Opposition- contro; 1 led Bundesrat, the upper house. Though the business. gift and entertainment expense amendments most likely will find the necessary support, other and far more basic issues also require a compromise before enactment. The government coalition parties continue to feel very strongly about con­ cepts such as tax relief for low and medium incomes, cash payments for children, and a higher tax rate on upper income brackets. The Opposition is just as adamant in in­ sisting that the proposed tax relief would only be tempo­ rary, since continuing inflation would not only eat up the initial benefits but eventually would even worsen the tax­ • payer's position as he moves into higher income brac~ets because of inflationary wage increases. With government and Opposition so far apart on basic issues, it is anyone's guess on what the final compromise will be (Doing Business in Europe, Par. 30,680), · Switzerland: A government-proposed amendment to Switzerland's Aliens Law Amendment Seeks would enable cantonal authorities for the first time to New Curbs on limit the number of foreigners who settle in the country Aliens Influx without taking up employment (pensioners, for instance). The amendment also would reduce further the number of aliens employed in sectors so far exempt from immigration curbs (Doing Business in Europe, Pars. 29,115 and 29,465), among them artists and members of the liberal professions. Other sectors that would be affected by restrictions on the hiring of aliens would include farming, hospitals, homes for children and the aged, and education. Non-Swiss physi­ cians or attorneys could no longer take for granted the freedom to settle anywhere. The government's latest move does not come as a sur­ prise in view of the major policy objective of stabilizing the percentage of aliens in the country, an aim that is as- • EUROMARKET NEWS - p. 4 • Aliens Curb sured of broad political support. In 1973. some 1.05 mil­ (contd.) lion out of a total Swiss population of 6.3 million were aliens, of which 660 9 000 were employed. The various exemp­ tions listed in the Aliens Law last year again enabled some 40,000 foreigners to move to Switzerland to work or retire. This trend could be stopped in the future, since the amend­ ment even calls for cancellation of valid residence permits and a stop to the issuance of new ones. Sweden: The Social Democrat minority government apparently has Agreement on averted the need to call new Swedish elections this year by Financing of gaining the opposition Liberals' agreement on the financing Reforms of a series of reforms. This support of the compromise deal will assure the Olof Palme administration of a 190- vote bloc in the 350-seat Riksdag when the economic policy measure comes up for a vote. The proposals provide for in­ come tax and surtax reductions for most income groups next year. for the abolition of employee contributions to the health insurance system, and for an increase in old-age pensions. The legal retirement age is to be lowered from 67 to 65 years as of July 1, 1976, Almost the entire burden of the package will have to be assumed by the employers, whose social benefit costs would go up by a total of 8 billion kronor. Employer con­ tributions to the health insurance plans would be raised. of 1975, those toward the old-age pension system would go up in steps to reach a specified level in 1977, and those toward the supplementary pension programs would be in­ creased as of Jan. 1, 1977, The Liberals, in defending their collaboration with the government on this package, take credit for having turned back a Social Democrat proposal for a drastic boost in the employer payroll tax, which would have hurt business and industry even further.

Eriksen* Tore Jørgen Hanisch † Arild Sæther * University of Agder, Faculty of Economics and Social Sciences, Kristiansand, Norway ‡ University of Agder, Faculty of Economics and Social Sciences, Kristiansand, Norway † University of Agder, Faculty of Economics and Social Sciences, Kristiansand, Norway This article can be dowloaded from: http://www.nopecjournal.org/NOPEC_2007_a01.pdf Other articles from the Nordic Journal of Political Economy can be found at: http://www.nopecjournal.org The Rise and Fall of the Oslo School 1 Ib E. Eriksen, Tore Jørgen Hanisch1, Arild Sæther The Rise and Fall of the Oslo School2 Abstract In 1931 Ragnar Frisch became professor at the University of Oslo. By way of his research, a new study programme and new staff he created the ”Oslo School”, characterised by mathematical modelling, econometrics, economic planning and scepticism towards the market economy. Consequently, detailed state economic planning and governance dominated Norwegian economic policy for three decades after WWII. In the 1970s the School’s dominance came to an end when the belief in competitive markets gained a foothold and the economy had poor performance. As a result a decentralized market economy was reintroduced. However, mathematical modelling and econometrics remain in the core of most economic programmes. JEL classification: B23, B29,B31, B59, O21, P41, P51 1. Introduction The main purpose of this presentation is to tell the story of how Ragnar Frisch founded the so-called Oslo School in economics, and secondly, to outline the main features of this School and investigate its major influence on the Norwegian post-war economy.

Det er en stor oppgave du til syvende og sist må fullføre alene. Jeg var ikke helt forberedt på hva jeg tok fatt på. Valget av tema for oppgaven gjorde det nok ikke mye enklere for meg, men det gjorde reisen interessant og lærerik, kanskje til og med nyttig. Reisen har ikke bare vært ensom. Underveis har jeg blitt kjent med mange på masterprogrammet i historie, som jeg kommer til å ha kontakt med lenge. Jeg vil først og fremst takke Even Lange for uvurderlig veiledning. Han har vært tålmodig, grundig, konstruktiv, ærlig og hyggelig. Jeg kunne ikke bedt om en bedre veileder. Hjelp og støtte har jeg også fått fra andre. Mamma og pappa har lest gjennom og gitt innspill. Kirsti har gjort det samme, og hun har oppmuntret meg hele veien. I tillegg vil jeg trekke frem min tvillingbror, Anders, som også leverer masteroppgave nå. Vi har vært i samme situasjon, og vi har kunnet dele våre gleder og sorger.

Want de hoofdstad van België is tevens de zetel van de voornaamste Europese instellingen. Feitelijk is Brussel de ongekroonde hoofdstad van de Europese superstaat. Hier komt de wetgeving vandaan waaraan in de vijftien lidstaten van de Europese Unie niets meer kan worden veranderd. Dat is wennen voor de nationale hoofdsteden en regeringscentra als het Binnenhof in Den Haag. Het spel om de macht speelt zich immers niet langer uitsluitend af in de vertrouwde omgeving van de Ridderzaal. Het is verschoven naar Brussel. Vrijwel ongemerkt hebben diplomaten en Europese functionarissen de macht op het Binnenhof veroverd en besturen zij in alle stilte, ongezien en ongecontroleerd, vanuit Brussel de ‘deelstaat’ Nederland.

The committee is composed of historians of the European Union member countries who work on contemporary history. The Liaison Committee: – gathers and conveys information about work on European history after the Second World War; – advises the European Union on research projects concerning contemporary European history. Thus, the Liaison Committee was commissioned to make publicly available the archives of the Community institutions; – enables researchers to make better use of the archival sources; – promotes research meetings to get an update of work in progress and to stimulate new research: seven research conferences have been organized and their proceedings published. The Journal of European Integration History – Revue d’histoire de l’intégration européenne – Zeitschrift für Geschichte der europäischen Integration is in line with the preoccupations of the Liaison Committee. Being the first history journal to deal exclusively with the history of European Integration, the Journal offers the increasing number of young historians devoting their research to contemporary Europe, a permanent forum. The Liaison Committee is supported by the European Commission, but works completely independ- ently and according to historians’ critical method. ❋ Le Groupe de liaison des professeurs d’histoire contemporaine auprès de la Commission des Communautés européennes s’est constitué en 1982 à la suite d’un grand colloque que la Commis- sion avait organisé à Luxembourg pour lancer la recherche historique sur la construction européenne.

  • Ragnar Frisch and the Postwar Norwegian Economy · Econ Journal Watch: History of Economic Thought,Ragnar Frisch,Norway,Scandina
    Discuss this article at Journaltalk: http://journaltalk.net/articles/5819 ECON JOURNAL WATCH 11(1) January 2014: 46-80 Ragnar Frisch and the Postwar Norwegian Economy Arild Sæther1 and Ib E. Eriksen2 LINK TO ABSTRACT In Norwegian academic life the memorial Nobel Prize winner Ragnar Frisch (1895–1973) is still a major figure, and he is universally recognized as a great economist. Here the story will be told how he built up the Oslo School of economic teaching and research, and how the Oslo School influenced economic policy in the small, homogeneous, and relatively culturally insular country of Norway. That influence moved the Norwegian economy toward economic planning. During the postwar decades the Norwegian economy achieved economic growth rates similar to other OECD countries, but with significantly higher investment ratios. The Norwegian economy was getting less ‘bang for its buck,’ with the result being lower rates of consumption. At the end of the 1970s the lagging economic performance impelled a change. Much of the present article is a reworking of materials that we have published previously, some with our late colleague Tore Jørgen Hanisch, particularly articles in the Nordic Journal of Political Economy (Eriksen, Hanisch, and Sæther 2007; Eriksen and Sæther 2010a). This article hopes to bring the story and its lessons to a wider audience.3 Translations from Norwegian sources are our own, unless otherwise noted. 1.
