  abstract  = {The European Employment Strategy (EES) belongs to the European Union's „softer", legally non-binding policy instruments. Many politicians and academics associated its introduction with the expectation for a strengthening of the EU's social dimension and democratic quality. This article examines whether, so far, the EES can be regarded as effective and legitimate. To illustrate this, the author briefly examines the role of the EES for the development of labour market policy in Germany and the UK.},

  abstract  = {In the need to reform the German labour market, the so-called ‚Hartz IV'- Act cut down subsidies for unemployed people in order to increase the pressure for searching for a new job. By law, low-paid jobs shall be introduced. However, even if this creates employment, there will be a future problem: pensions for these people will dramatically drop below the poverty line. The author argues that, in order to avoid such 'poverty-traps', an alternative social support system should be considered: a 'tax transfer system' with lowered income tax, yet complete reduction of legal exceptions on the one hand, and transfer systems combined with work incentives on the other hand.},

  abstract  = {The author argues that growth determines employment and not the other way around. He opposes the widespread view among German economists that more employment generated by wage cuts or increased labour market flexibility will stimulate growth. For him, this view relies on theoretical prejudices that have to be rejected in light of some recent, simple evidence. The fact that all cyclical rebounds during the 1990s have been cut short by restrictive monetary policy explains the inability of the German labour market to regain full employment.},

  abstract  = {Modern Japanese philosophy offers a new approach to describing the world of labour. The article compares this approach with neoclassical labour market theories. Neither the working individual nor her "labour world" are sufficient as starting points to explain certain forms of organization. Instead, Graupe focuses on the "context of action". As an example of organisation, which classic economical theory is unable to explain, she presents "internal labour markets". The Japanese philosophical understanding of the world influences thus the specific design of working worlds in Japan.},

Through a large, informal coalition, the political parties have responded to various internal conflict constellations.},
