    Abstract: This volume contains a large selection of the invited papers given at the Twelfth Conference of the Association of Cultural Economics International held in Rotterdam in 2002. Two sessions were devoted to what came to be called the cultural industries (movies, television, media, etc.). Two dealt with the history of art and music markets. The last two were more policy oriented. One was devoted to the management of built heritage which becomes larger every year, and will be in need of more and more public funding. The invited speakers in the last session had spent, or are still spending, some or most of their time in the real world, and try to discuss how cultural economists can contribute to alleviate the hard life of those who have to manage culture.Choices necessarily meant that many fields in which active research is alive were not dealt with, in particular, the contemporary functioning of art markets, artists' labor markets, museums and their management, aesthetic choices and tastes, the meaning of quality in the arts, etc. In this volume, the papers given in the six sessions are reshuffled and grouped into three parts: the cultural industries, historical aspects, and policy issues including the management heritage

    Abstract: Die demographische Entwicklung in Deutschland in den nächsten Dekaden und die EU-Osterweiterung haben zu einer heftigen Debatte über die zu erwartenden Konsequenzen für die Wirtschaftsentwicklung und Wirtschaftspolitik Deutschlands geführt. Die hier zusammengefassten Tagungsbeiträge beschäftigen sich mit der Frage, welche Bedeutung die Arbeitskräftewanderungen in diesem Zusammenhang haben werden. So zeigt Henkel auf, wie dringend eine Zunahme der Einwanderung ist, soll der Abnahme der Erwerbsbevölkerung und der daraus erwachsenden Belastung der Sozialversicherungssysteme begegnet werden. -- Im Hinblick auf die Integration der Arbeitsmärkte im Zuge der EU-Osterweiterung verdeutlichen Brücker und Flaig, dass der Einfluss nicht-beobachteter, länderspezifischer Determinanten des Migrationsverhaltens große Unsicherheit bringt. Walwei argumentiert, die erwartete Zuwanderung begründe kein Nachlassen der Anstrengungen zur Stärkung des einheimischen Arbeitskräftepotentials, und Bonin widerspricht der Erwartung, dass die zukünftige Einwanderung die öffentlichen Haushalte belasten muss. Ein positiver Beitrag sei um so mehr zu erwarten, wenn es der Migrationspolitik gelänge, die Einwanderung überdurchschnittlich qualifizierter Arbeitskräfte zu erreichen. In der Frage möglicher positiver Wirkungen der Migration im Zuge erhöhter sozialer Mobilität der zuwandernden Arbeitsbevölkerung zeigt Dietz, inwieweit Unsicherheiten über den Aufenthaltsstatus oder formale Qualifikationsanforderungen einen sozialen Aufstieg von Immigranten behindert haben. Von Löffelholz schließlich schätzt, dass eine Intensivierung der bisherigen integrationspolitischen Maßnahmen sehr hohe soziale Netto-Erträge induzieren würde

    Abstract: In this major book Martha Nussbaum, one of the most innovative and influential philosophical voices of our time, proposes a kind of feminism that is genuinely international, argues for an ethical underpinning to all thought about development planning and public policy, and dramatically moves beyond the abstractions of economists and philosophers to embed thought about justice in the concrete reality of the struggles of poor women. Nussbaum argues that international political and economic thought must be sensitive to gender difference as a problem of justice, and that feminist thought must begin to focus on the problems of women in the third world. Taking as her point of departure the predicament of poor women in India, she shows how philosophy should undergird basic constitutional principles that should be respected and implemented by all governments, and used as a comparative measure of quality of life across nations

    Abstract: Structural transformations in the international economy and the restructuring of work have made the transition from education to employment increasingly problematic. School-to-work pathways have become more socially segmented and the risk of under-employment and joblessness has increased for both vocationally and academically educated youth. Continuous passages have become less common and have given way to multiple entries and exits between schooling and working, under-employment, unemployment and domestic work. This edited volume of empirical studies is based on a series of comparable longitudinal research projects which draw on survey and biographical data from important players in the international economy, the USA, Great Britain, Canada and Germany. The studies document that social and gender inequality is a persistent structural feature that restricts the possibilities to take advantage of educational opportunities and career options. Furthermore, different institutional arrangements are shown to play a crucial role in distributing transition opportunities in a more equal way

    Abstract: The next few decades hold the prospect of remarkable progress in a wide range of pervasive technologies that are likely to have a profound effect on how we live, work, and spend our leisure time. These technologies are set to revolutionise the worlds of medicine, agriculture, travel, retailing...so much that is familiar in our daily lives. Used wisely, they could be of huge benefit to mankind. Used wrongly, they could mean lost opportunities and unnecessary risks. The challenge for society is immense. What would be the cost of failure to embrace dynamic change? What kind of ethical dilemmas will arise from further breakthroughs in genetic engineering? Will the spread of new technologies create new social divisions? What sort of societies will prove most adept at harnessing the vast technological potential? How can countries best co-operate to maximise the benefits of spillovers? This book reviews the extraordinary promise of technological advances over the next twenty years or so, and assesses some of the key issues -- economic, social, environmental, ethical -- that decision-makers in government, business and society will face in the decades ahead.

The program addresses issues that affect the well-being of individuals as they age and a society that is composed increasingly of older people.

New research in the economics of aging is an essential element of understanding what the future holds for this aging population.

South. Instead, they demonstrate that the local cannot be understood without the global, and that the global can never be isolated from the regional setting within which it operates
