Consumption equivalence public capital prices are explicitly introduces in order to sufficiently care for the opportunity cost of public expenditure. This can solve the dispute about the social rate of discount within public cost-benefit analysis witch was generated on a criterion looking similar to the capital value formula, known as Lind's approach. The social rate of discount is liberated from opportunity costs considerations and the discounting away of the effects for future welfare vanishes. The corresponding question whether one should accept a positive value of the pure rate of social time preference is an old issue. Its current state between the prescriptive and descriptive view can also be interpreted as a consequence of the oversimplification of standard cost- benefit analysis. But apart from an economic self-process the pure rate of social time preference is also defined as a business-as-usual value of social distance discounting. Hence, a political choice has to be made about this rate which is free in principal.}, language = {en} } @techreport{Drechsler2005, type = {Working Paper}, author = {Drechsler, Denis}, title = {Unemployment in Germany and the Eurosclerosis debate}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-9036}, year = {2005}, abstract = {Many European countries have experienced a significant increase of unemployment in recent years. This paper reviews several theoretical models that try to explain this phenomenon. Predominantly, these models claim a link between the poor performance of European labor markets and the high level of market regulation. Commonly referred to as the Eurosclerosis debate, prominent approaches consider insider-outsider relationships, search-models, and the influence of hiring and firing costs on equilibrium employment. The paper presents empirical evidence of each model and studies the relevance of the identified rigidities as a determinant of high unemployment in Europe. Furthermore, a case study analyzes the unemployment problem in Germany and critically discusses new reform efforts. In particular this section analyzes whether the recently enacted Hartz reforms can induce higher employment.}, language = {en} } @techreport{Eberhardt2005, type = {Working Paper}, author = {Eberhardt, Bj{\"o}rn}, title = {Public pensions in the U.S.}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-9058}, year = {2005}, abstract = {Contents: The Public Old Age Insurance of the U.S. -Historical overview -Technical details -Individual equity and social adequacy The Economic Problem of Old Age -Risks and economic security -Old age, retirement, and idividual precaution -Insurance markets, market failures, and social insurance -Options for public pension systems The Problems of Social Security -The financial balance of OASDI -Causes of the long-run problems -Rates of return -Conclusion - The case for Social Security reform Proposed Remedies -Full, partial, or no privatization? -The President's Commission to Strengthen Social Security -Kotlikoff's Personal Security System -The Diamond-Orszag Three-Part plan}, language = {en} } @book{OPUS4-999, title = {Das Image von Potsdam aus der Sicht lokaler Unternehmer}, editor = {Balderjahn, Ingo}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-10876}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, year = {1994}, abstract = {Dieser erste Lehr- und Forschungsbericht des Lehrstuhls f{\"u}r Betriebswirtschaftslehre mit dem Schwerpunkt Marketing beschreibt, analysiert und interpretiert ausgew{\"a}hlte Ergebnisse einer empirischen Studie zum lmage Potsdams bei lokalen Unternehmern.

We conduct a robustness check with the Handelsblatt and the Times Higher Education ranking. According to these rankings, individuals on average go down only about two ranks.

The main result is the classification of social choice situations which include three types of social choice problems. First, we usually observe the common incompleteness of the Pareto relation. Second, a kind of non-compactness problem of a choice set of social states can be generated. Finally, both can be combined. The first problem root can be regarded as natural everyday dilemma of social choice theory whereas the second may probably be much more due to modeling technique implications. The distinction is enabled at a very general set theoretical level. Hence, the derived classification of social choice situations is applicable on almost every relevant economic model.}, language = {en} } @misc{GronauWildemannZaeh2004, author = {Gronau, Norbert and Wildemann, Horst and Z{\"a}h, Michael F.}, title = {Entwicklung und Betrieb wandlungsf{\"a}higer Auftragsabwicklungssysteme}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-6791}, year = {2004}, abstract = {Mittelst{\"a}ndische Industrieunternehmen setzen f{\"u}r ihre betrieblichen Abl{\"a}ufe Planungs- und Ausf{\"u}hrungssysteme ein.
