No full textDie Beziehungen zwischen der gotischen Architektur in der Westschweiz und in Burgund, von Stephan Gasser
Eine vor kurzem vom Autor dieses Artikels abgeschlossene Untersuchung zur gotischen Architektur in der Westschweiz hat gezeigt, dass die mimer wieder propagierten Verbindungen zur Architektur im Burgund und in der Freigrafschah relativiert werden müssen. Demnach erklären sich die Parallelen zwischen den Kathedralen von Lausanne und Genf einerseits und der gotischen Architektur im Burgund andererseits nicht durch direkte Abhangigkeit, sondern durch die gleichzeitige Obernahme anglonormannischer Formen. Ferner beschranken sich die Obereinstimmungen in der Architektur kleiner und mittelgrosser Bauten mit wenigen Ausnahmen auf die Realisierung desselben Bautypus mit Rechteckchor in verschiedenen Varianten, während die Ausführung im Detail lokalen Gewohnheiten folgt. Erwas engere Verbindungen zeigen sich lediglich zwischen den Kathedralen von Lausanne und Besançon sowie zwischen der Kollegiatskirche von Neuenburg und verschiedenen Bauten in der Freigrafschaft und im Burgund. Der westschweizerischen Gotik wesentlich näher stehen allerdings einige Kirchen im nördlichen Savoyen (Abondance, Evian-les-Bains etc.).The relations between gothic architecture in French-speaking Switzerland and Burgundy, by Stephan Gasser
A recent study by the present author of gothic architecture in French-speaking Switzerland has shown that the artistic relations often pointed out with Burgundian architecture and that or Franche-Comté should be rethought. The parallels drawn between Burgundian gothic architecture and the cathedrals of Lausanne and Geneva cannot be explained by direct dependency, but by simultaneous adaptation of Anglo-Norman forms. Furthermore, the affinities between the smaller or medium sized buildings are nearly always limited to the adaptation of the same type of flat chevet with a few variations, whereas the detailed execution is a product of local customs. Closer relations are visible only between the cathedrals of Lausanne and Besançon and between the collegiate church of Neuchâtel and a few buildings in Franche-Comté and Burgundy. Conversely, there is a close relation between the Gothic architecture in French-speaking Switzerland and a few churches in northern Savoy (Abondance, Evian-les Bains, etc.).Une recherche sur l'architecture gothique en Suisse romande récemment effectuée par l'auteur du présent article, a montré que l'étroitesse des relations artistiques avec la Bourgogne et la Franche-Comté, souvent évoquée, doit être remise en cause. Dès lors, les parallèles entre les cathédrales de Lausanne et de Genève d'une part, et l'architecture gothique en Bourgogne de l'autre, ne résulteraient pas d'une dépendance directe, mais d'une assimilation parallèle de certaines formes anglo-normandes. Les similitudes entre des édifices de petite ou moyenne dimension se limitent d'ailleurs le plus souvent à 1'adoption, avec quelques variantes, d'un même type de plan à chevet plat, tandis que, dans le détail, l'exécution demeure soumise aux habitudes locales. Il existe néanmoins des relations plus précises entre les cathédrales de Lausanne et de Besançon, ou entre la collégiale de Neuchâtel et quelques édifices comtois et bourguignons. Le gothique de la Suisse romande entretient en revanche des liens étroits avec certains édifices du nord de la Savoie, comme en témoignent les exemples d'Abondance, Evian-les-Bains etc.Gasser Stephan.

Unemployment Benefits and Unemployment Rates of Low-Skilled and Elder Workers in West Germany: A Search Equilibrium Approach

To answer this question we estimate a version of the Burdett-Mortensen search equilibrium model and analyze how workers’ search behaviour responded to these reforms. We try both nonparametric and fully-parametric estimation methods and identify the cases in which the nonparametric approach cannot be applied. We find that the entitlement reforms are largely responsible for the increase of unemployment among unskilled workers

Measuring Vulnerability to Poverty Using Long-Term Panel Data
No full textMeasuring Vulnerability to Poverty Using Long-Term Panel Data Author & abstract Download & other version 16 References 4 Citations Related works & more Corrections Author Listed: Katja Landau (Georg-August-University Göttingen) Stephan Klasen (Georg-August-University Göttingen) Walter Zucchini (Georg-August-University Göttingen) Registered: Stephan Klasen Abstract We investigate the accuracy of ex ante assessments of vulnerability to income poverty using cross-sectional data and panel data. We use long-term panel data from Germany and apply di fferent regression models, based on household covariates and previous-year equivalence income, to classify a household as vulnerable or not. Predictive performance is assessed using the Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC), which takes account of false positive as well as true positive rates. Estimates based on cross-sectional data are much less accurate than those based on panel data, but for Germany, the accuracy of vulnerability predictions is limited even when panel data are used. In part this low accuracy is due to low poverty incidence and high mobility in and out of poverty
