The Role of Employer Associations and Labour Unions in the EMU - Institutional Requirements for European Economic Policies... The Role of Employer Associations and Labour Unions in the EMU - Institutional Requirements for European Economic Policies (Paperback)
Gerhard Huemer, Franz Traxler; Edited by Michael Mesch
R753 Discovery Miles 7 530 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

First published in 1999, this volume recognises that in the course of European integration, national economic policy makers lose some effective policy instruments. Contributors to this omnibus volume analyse the 'room for maneuvering' available to national and EU economic and social policies under the conditions of the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU). They explore the possibilities for European coordination and discuss the tasks of employers' associations and labour unions on the national and EU level in wage, employment and macroeconomic policies. Section 1 of the book deals with the strengths and weaknesses of the EU in the context of global competition. In spite of national differences, many of the EU member countries share important characteristics. Section 2 addresses the need for and the feasibility of policy coordination in the EMU. With the start of the EMU, wage policy will have to bear the main burden of absorbing asymmetrical economic shocks. The authors from the DIW argue that a wage policy favourable to economic growth, employment and convergence has to be guided by the inflation target set by the European Central Bank (ECB) and by the long-term increase of productivity in individual countries. A precondition for this kind of wage policy is coordination between the main actors of EU economic policy (ECB, EcoFin, social partners).

Dieses Buch prasentiert die Ergebnisse einer Untersuchung, die der Arbeitskreis fUr oekonomische und soziologische Studien, Wien, inituert und koordiniert hat. Dem Arbeitskreis fur oekonomische und soziologische Studien gehoeren Vertreter der Bundeskammer der gewerblichen Wirtschaft, des OEsterreichischen Arbeiterkammertages, des OEsterreichischen Gewerkschaftsbundes und der Vereinigung oesterreichischer Industrieller an. Ziel des Arbeitskreises ist die Durchfuhrung wissenschaftlicher Untersuchungen zu Fragen, denen eine langerfristige Bedeutung beizumessen ist und welche die Aufgabenstellungen der genannten Institutionen beruhren. Mitte der siebziger Jahre beschleunigte sich der wirtschaftliche Strukturwandel von der Sachguterproduktion zu den Dienstleistungen. Mittlerweile hat der Dienstleistungssektor in den Industriestaaten einen Anteil am Bruttoinlandsprodukt und an der Zahl der Erwerbstatigen von mehr als funfzig Prozent erreicht. Gleichzeitig schreitet die Tertiarisierung der Sachguterproduktion voran: der Anteil der Erwerbstatigen in Fertigungsberufen sinkt, der Anteil jener, die in sachguterproduzierenden Betrieben Dienstleistungen erstellen, steigt. Eine der Folgen des rapiden Strukturwandels ist verstarktes Interesse von Wirtschaftspolitik und -wissenschaft am bislang eher vernachlassigten Thema Dienstleistungen. Insbesondere die Zunahme der Arbeitslosigkeit und das Beharrungsvermoegen derselben motivierten Studien uber das Absorptionspotential des Dienstleistungssektors, die Wachstumsursachen und -aussichten einzelner Dienstleistungsbereiche, die Auswirkungen des technischen Fortschritts auf Beschaftigungs- und Produktivitatsentwicklung ebendort, sowie zu vielen anderen Fragestellungen. Der Aussenhandel mit Dienstleistungen blieb hingegen ein vergleichsweise unbeachtetes Thema.
