    "Maastricht 2042 and the Fate of Europe: Toward Convergence and Full Employment"

    No full text
    Unemployment in the European Union (EU) is a serious problem that threatens to disrupt the integration of accession countries, the character of individual countries, and the continued existence of the EU. According to Senior Scholar James K. Galbraith, European integration poses a huge conundrum for European employment because the conventional theory explaining unemployment in EuropeÐlabor market rigiditiesÐis wrong. The application of this policy will not cure European unemployment, but it could destroy the economic promise of the EU for its poorer regions and the accession countries.

    Schumpeter – Lange – Galbraith. Innovations in theory and practice

    No full text
    W nauce ekonomii traktuje się zjawisko innowacji jako ściśle związane z tworzeniem wiedzy oraz jej przenikaniem do produkcji dóbr materialnych, dóbr i usług. Istnieje jednak rozbieżność w rozumieniu tego związku. Innowacją nazywa się często cały proces rozwiązywania jakiegoś poznawczego lub praktycznego problemu wraz z wyrażaniem gotowego wyniku do produkcji, bądź też za innowację uważa się tylko samo zastosowanie rezultatów postępu wiedzy, określanych jako odkrycie lub wynalazki. Ograniczenie się do innowacji-procesów, jak w ekonomii neoklasycznej, jest bardzo wygodne metodologicznie. Pozwala oprzeć się w analizie na metodach wynikających z funkcji produkcji, która służy niemal wyłącznie opisowi zmian w obrębie wytwarzania, a więc innowacji technologicznych.The paper presents the issue of innovation from the point of view of Schumpeter, Lange and Galbraith. The thesis about the economic effectiveness of innovation was verified. The global innovation index was used to measure innovation, which served to explain the impact of innovation on the mobility of production factors and economic growth. Presented are the conditions for the emergence of innovation in terms of Schumpeter. The way in which Oskar Lange captures the impact of innovation on the properties of the production function is presented. The Schumpeter-Galbraith` hypothesis states that a large enterprise is a better user of the leading achievements of science and technology, a better innovator than their independent co-creator

    "What is the American Model Really About? Soft Budgets and the Keynesian Devolution "

    No full text
    The "American Model" serves as a point of reference in discussions of economic policy around the world especially in Europe; many claim that the American version of the free market represents an ideal type-it is the highest form of capitalism. The author argues, however, that the United States has relied heavily on government intervention in housing, health care, pensions, and education. Not only have these programs been largely successful and popular, they also provide a Keynesian stimulus to spending that help account for the strength of the U.S. economy. Now that the U.S. is in a weak, jobless recovery, the key to restoring growth may lie in the kinds of governmental programs that have helped to sustain and stabilize the U.S. economy in the past.
