Worker churn is procyclical in the German labor market. We study the plant-level connection of churn and employment growth using the new Administrative Wage and Labor Market Flow Panel from 1975 to 2014. Churn is V-shaped in employment growth. Through analyzing this pattern by worker skill, age, and tenure, we establish that churn is unlikely to result from plant reorganization but rather from uncertainty about match quality. In a dynamic labor demand framework with a time-to-hire friction, churn can be interpreted as a manifestation of idiosyncratically stochastic separation shocks. These shocks become larger and more predictable during booms, leading to procyclical churn.

Bidens Fiskalpolitik – ein Vorbild für Deutschland?

Die US-amerikanische Regierung hat in relativ kurzer Folge drei Fiskalprogramme zur Konjunkturstimulierung verabschiedet: am 27. März 2020, bereits zu einem frühen Zeitpunkt in der COVID-19-Pandemie, den CARES (Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security) Act mit einem Umfang von 2,2 Billionen US-$, am 27. Dezember 2020 den Consolidated Appropriations Act 2021 im Umfang von 0,9 Billionen US-$, und schließlich dann am 11. März 2021 nach der Amtseinführung Präsident Bidens den American Rescue Plan Act im Umfang von 1,9 Billionen US-$. Zusammen entspricht dies einem fiskalischen Impuls von knapp einem Viertel des US-amerikanischen Bruttoinlandsprodukts (BIP). Darüber hinaus diskutieren Präsident Biden und die Demokraten im Kongress zurzeit ein Infrastrukturpaket, den American Jobs Plan, sowie ein Familien- und Bildungspaket, den American Families Plan. Deren Umfänge betragen weitere Billionen US-Dollar und beinhalten nicht nur klassische Infrastrukturvorhaben, sondern auch Programme zum Klimaschutz und zum Ausbau der Care Economy sowie familien- und bildungspolitische Maßnahmen wie einen Kindergartenanspruch für alle und Kündigungsschutz im Krankheitsfall. Die beiden noch ausstehenden Ausgabenpakete sollen durch höhere Unternehmensteuern, eine höhere Mindeststeuer und verschiedene steuerpolitische Maßnahmen im oberen Einkommenssegment bei der Bundeseinkommensteuer sowie durch zusätzliche Staatsschulden finanziert werden. Auf die Realisierungschancen dieser Pakete, die ja für die Frage wichtig sind, inwieweit die Biden-Politik Vorbild für die Fiskalpolitik in Deutschland sein kann, wird später einzugehen sein.

gleichbares. Abbildung 1 zeigt auch, dass die US-amerikanischen Haushalte im Durchschnitt in einem bisher nicht dagewesenen Ausmaß verfügbares Einkommen aufbauten, und zwar parallel zur fiskalischen Expansion.

Trotzdem zeichnet sich in den USA auch eine sich verfestigende Langzeitarbeitslosigkeit sowie eine erhöhte Nahrungsmittelunsicherheit bei den ärmeren Haushalten ab, und das diente letztlich der politischen Rechtfertigung des American Rescue Plan Act durch die Biden Administration.

Für die Beurteilung der ökonomischen Folgen des American Rescue Plan Act sowie die Abschätzung der konjunkturellen Wirkungen der beiden noch nicht verabschiedeten Programme illustriert Abbildung 1 darüber hinaus die erste gegenwärtig noch offene Grundfrage: 1. Wie werden die Haushalte mit ihrem zusätzlichen verfügbaren Einkommen umgehen?

Handelt es sich gewissermaßen um eine „Kriegskasse“, die in kurzer Zeit für einen postpandemischen Konsumrausch ausgegeben werden wird? Oder wird das zusätzliche verfügbare Einkommen zur Reparatur der Haushaltsbilanzen verwendet, also letztlich ins langfristige Nettovermögen der Haushalte eingehen und erst allmählich nachfragewirksam werden? Wir kennen die Antwort noch nicht. Tritt eher das erste Szenario ein, wird für einige Zeit mit kräftiger Inflation, höheren Nominalzinsen und mit Angebotsrestriktionen zu rechnen sein. Gerade letztere stellen dann aber auch ein Problem für den American Jobs Plan und den American Families Plan dar, die zwar nicht konjunkturell, sondern langfristig motiviert sind, aber eben dann auf eine ohnehin bereits ausgelastete US-amerikanische Wirtschaft mit brummender Konjunktur träfen.

Die zweite noch offene Grundfrage ist: 2. Wie schnell wird die Outputlücke bzw. die Arbeitslosigkeit in den USA abgebaut werden?

Outputlückenschätzungen sind nicht unproblematisch und werden immer wieder kritisiert. Hier geht es aber um den Unterschied in der Outputlückenentwicklung nach der Großen Rezession gegenüber derjenigen während der COVID-19-Krise.

Thomas W. Smith Distinguished Scholars in Residence School of Civic and Economic Thought and Leadership, Arizona State University, Spring 2021.

Dans cette analyse très minutieuse de toutes les œuvres majeures de Machiavel (Le Prince, Les Discours, La Mandragola, L’Art de la Guerre, La Vie de Castruccio Castracani, Clizia, et Histoires Florentines), Catherine Zuckert montre de façon inédite que Machiavel livre un récit cohérent de la notion politique qui s’applique aussi bien à notre époque qu’à la sienne.

BOOK PUBLICATION

Selon Machiavel, les individus s’organisent politiquement pour protéger leur vie, leur famille et leurs biens des agresseurs violents. Mais, une fois ces sociétés organisées formées, cellesci se divisent en deux sortes d’« humeurs » opposées : le désir du peuple de ne pas être commandé ou opprimé ; et le désir des ambitieux et des avares de dominer et d’opprimer.

Machiavel adresse donc toutes ses œuvres aux dirigeants, qu’ils soient réels ou potentiels, car il voit qu’une foule sans direction peut être destructrice. Pour conserver leur position de gouvernant, il exhorte alors les dirigeants à utiliser ce désir du peuple de voir leur vie, leur famille et leurs biens protégés.

THE LAURA SHANNON PRIZE in Contemporary European Studies

“Heroines and Local Girls: The Transnational Emergence of Women’s Writing in the Long Eighteenth Century” Pamela L. Cheek

University of Pennsylvania Press, 2019

Professor of French and Comparative Literature, University of New Mexico

JURY STATEMENT

“Pamela L. Cheek’s meticulously researched book on the evolution of European women’s writing into a distinct body of literature represents a ground-breaking contribution to the history of women’s writing and reading. In this geographically and intellectually ambitious work, Cheek deftly traces the development of transnational ‘ideational’ and actual communities of writing—and, importantly, reading—women, examining the networks and reciprocal influences of women authors and readers located in France, Germany, Holland and England. . . . A remarkably wide-ranging and scholarly account of the consolidation of women’s writing as a transnational category of literature, ‘Heroines and Local Girls’ is an indispensable reference point for writers and readers interested in reception politics, literary history and women’s writing.”

Winner, 2022 Award in the Humanities

“The Ruins Lesson: Meaning and Material in Western Culture” University of Chicago Press, 2019

Susan Stewart

The Avalon Foundation University Professor in the Humanities and Professor of English Princeton University

JURY STATEMENT

“A fascinating and exceptionally erudite investigation of the cultural meaning of ancient ruins in Western culture, ‘The Ruins Lesson’ considers a wide range of places, times, artifacts, personal objects, religious practices and artistic forms ranging from architecture to visual art (printmaking and painting) to poetry. Susan Stewart, a much-respected literary critic, here turns her attention to the material realm. She surveys the physical and visible remains from antiquity, in order to consider the ways these ruins came to represent the high achievements of past civilizations and how artists and writers came to imagine them as both compelling and problematic insofar as they embody a narrative of decay as well as one of lost grandeur. . . .”

Silver Medalist, 2022 Award in the Humanities

“Women at Work in Twenty-First Century European Cinema” University of Illinois Press, 2019

Barbara Mennel

The Rothman Chair and Director of the Center for the Humanities and the Public Sphere and Professor of Film Studies and German Studies, University of Florida

JURY STATEMENT

“Ranging across both arthouse and popular films from nearly two dozen European countries, Barbara Mennel’s ‘Women at Work’ illuminates the diverse representations of women’s labor in twenty-first century European cinema. This groundbreaking book embeds culture-specific approaches to working women within the broader contexts of global financial crises, neoliberal capitalism, precarity, migration and the ethics and economics of biotechnology. Admirably attentive to the diversity of European feminisms and cinematic idioms, Mennel explores both the transcending of female stereotypes and their durability. Many films she examines show how female economic empowerment often rests on the exploited domestic and reproductive labor of migrant women. A captivating overview of current European cinema, ‘Women at Work’ offers timely and discerning insight into the evolving meanings of feminism in contemporary Europe on both sides of the former Iron Curtain.”
