The Impact of the Economic Crisis on EU Labour Markets: A comparative Perspective?

Vortrag

Im Rahmen der öffentlichen Vortragsreihe Economic Theory and Policy der Forschungsgruppe Ökonomie am Institut für Wirtschaftsmathematik der TU Wien hält Prof. Pasquale Tridico (Università di “Roma Tre”) einen Vortrag mit dem Titel "The Impact of the Economic Crisis on EU Labour Markets: A comparative Perspective?" Abstract: Using a “crisis management index” to rank the combined GDP and labour market performances of the EU’s 27 Member States, the author considers why some countries performed better than others in managing the economic crisis over the period 2007–12. Based on empirical correlations and regression analysis, he concludes that the best performers share a coordinated market economy model: they feature a mix of economic policies and social institutions – including coordination mechanisms and tighter financial regulation – which helped to stabilize their levels of consumption and aggregate demand. Moreover, they do not have flexible labour markets and thus managed to maintain stable employment levels.
