Europe's economy is under strain due to lagging productivity growth, population ageing, the difficulties of adjustment in an enlarged European Union, and the challenges of globalization. In comparison with America, rates of growth of GDP per capita and labour productivity growth are anaemic, raising questions about the viability of a distinct European model. From observations like these, conclusions can be drawn that Europe will feel irresistible pressure to allow its policies and institutions to converge toward those of the United States. But how far and how fast are uncertain. Edited by internationally renowned authors in the field and packed with articles by an impressive array of international contributors, this book examines the American and European economies; drawing comparisons between them. Bringing together specialists from both sides of the Atlantic, including Lindert, DeLong and Buti to analyze the current state of both economies and their responses to the changing global environment, the book deals with competitiveness on the one hand and the relationship between institutions and markets on the other. This volume is particularly relevant to postgraduate and postdoctoral students undertaking research in all areas of European integration and international political economy, while also being appropriate for a professional audience.
Structural change analysis has been a distinctive feature of economics since its formative period. This authoritative three-volume collection presents a comprehensive selection of the key contributions to the topic.The Economics of Structural Change shows the central role that compositional dynamics plays in the analysis of fluctuations, development, employment and economy-environment interactions. Volume I covers concepts and theories in the economics of structural change; Volume II includes specific contributions to structural theories of growth, cycles and technological change; Volume III focuses on specific areas in the empirics of structural change analysis. This important three-volume set will be indispensable to researchers and practitioners alike.
Richard Goodwin was a pioneer in the use of mathematical tools
to understand the dynamics of capitalist economies. This book
contains contributions which focus on the rigorous extension of
Goodwin s modelling of macro-dynamics and the micro-structures
underlying them, and also research with a wider perspective related
to Goodwin s vision of an integrated Marx-Keynes-Schumpeter (M-K-S)
system of the dynamics of capitalist economies.

The variety of approaches in this book range from detailed business cycle analyses to Schumpeterian processes of creative destruction. They include thorough theoretical analysis of delayed dynamical systems. empirical studies of Goodwin's classical growth cycle model and the integration of Keynesian aspects of effective demand and of financial mechanisms that impact the real macro-economy. micro-economic structural analysis. expectations driven aspects of micro-founded business cycle modelling
Europe is passing through a dramatic period in which issues of international integration and disintegration are of crucial importance. Transforming Economies and European Integration is the first book to focus on the inter-dependence between the pattern and prospects of economic transformation in Eastern and Central Europe and the wider issue of European integration. Important aspects of this process are addressed from both scholarly and political perspectives. The distinguished group of authors, including leading figures from universities and institutions across Europe, reviews the current state-of-the-art in the process of East-West European integration, including bottlenecks and obstacles to the process. The authors analyse the most widely-debated issues and developments in East-West economic relations including the widening and deepening of the European Union, East-West trade, industrial restructuring and labour market adjustment, and the role of financial reforms and financial flows in this process. Highlighting key economic issues relating to the reintegration of Central and Eastern Europe into the European Community, Transforming Economies and European Integration will be welcomed by students, researchers and policymakers concerned with the emergence of a wider, more integrated Europe.
This edited volume analyses how EU membership influenced the convergence process of member countries in the Baltics, Central-Eastern and South-Eastern Europe. It also explores countries that are candidates for future EU membership. The speed of convergence of significant groups of low- and medium-income countries has never been as fast globally as it is today. Contributions by lead researchers of the area explore whether these countries are converging faster than their fundamentals and global trends would suggest because of EU membership, with its much tighter institutional and political anchorage
This edited volume analyses the channels through which EU membership contributed to the convergence process of member countries in the Baltics, Central-Eastern and South-Eastern Europe. These channels include trade, investment, finance, labour, and laws and institutions. Global integration has certainly played an important role. A large part of FDI flows and financial integration in the world have been persistent features of globalization. Have these countries experienced more intensive integration through these channels because of EU membership, with its much tighter institutional and political anchorage, than their fundamentals and global trends would suggest? Contributions by lead researchers of the area address different aspects of this question. .
