Social Market Economy
The book presents the economic policy model known as “Social Market Economy” in Germany, the country where it originated. Although the model has since been adopted as core objective in the EU Treaty of Lisbon, experts still disagree on its exact nature. The author contributes to this debate by presenting the German economic system from an external perspective and looking at the extent to which it enabled the country increase its weight in international relations. The system ́s history, identity, political and economic concepts, including ordoliberalism, are analyzed. Its potential and shortcomings are assessed by comparing it to other forms of capitalism. A brief enquiry is made into whether the "Social Market Economy", or aspects of it, are applicable to other countries, including in Eastern Europe. Providing both theoretical and practical aspects, the book offers a valuable resource for researchers, public administration professionals, and policymakers.

The International Aluminium Cartel
Aluminium was one of most cartelised industries in the international economic panorama of the 20th century. Born following the discovery of electrolytic smelting process in 1886, this industry, even in its infancy, established a cartel which characterised its history until nearly 1980. Managers of the aluminium industry from various historical eras and countries shared the same vision about the development of their industry: to keep prices as stable as possible in order to encourage expansions and to provide return on investments. Price instability, which characterised the trade of other commodities, was unknown to the aluminium industry. This book neither argues that cartels are fundamental...

Rating von Finanzinstituten
Die Finanzkrise hinterlässt eine völlig veränderte Bankenlandschaft. In kürzester Zeit zerfielen nicht nur einstige Großbanken, sondern es formierten sich auch völlig veränderte Institute aus Fusionen und Übernahmen. Der verschärfte Wettbewerb unter Banken wird nicht nur unter dem Joch einer ungelösten Staatsschuldenkrise ausgetragen, sondern auch unter erhöhtem Druck der Bankenaufsicht und der nächsten Generation von Finanzdienstleistern. Viele Geschäftsmodelle wurden erst durch neue Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologien möglich und harren auf Bewährung in der Praxis. Die Gesetzgebung erfasst inzwischen jedes Finanzinstitut und unterstellt es der Aufsicht. Das Buch zeigt nicht nur Konsequenzen der Regulierung und des Wettbewerbs für das Credit Rating von Banken, sondern auch Maßstäbe, Kriterien und Verfahren zur Beurteilung des existentiellen Risikos sonstiger Finanzinstitute auf.
Political Economy and International Order in Interwar Europe
Standard histories of European integration emphasize the immediate aftermath of World War II as the moment when the seeds of the European Union were first sown. However, the interwar years witnessed a flurry of concern with the reconstruction of the world order, generating arguments that cut across the different social sciences, then plunged in a period of disciplinary soul-searching and feverish activism. Economics was no exception: several of the most prominent interwar economists, such as F. A. Hayek, Jan Tinbergen, Lionel Robbins, François Perroux, J. M. Keynes and Robert Triffin, contributed directly to larger public discussions on peace, order and stability. This edited volume combine...

Studies on the Romanian Political Elite from Transylvania and Hungary (1861–1918)
The present work contains a number of prosopographic and statistical studies regarding the elite of the Romanian national movement in Transylvania between 1861 and 1918, chronologically ordered in the form of chapters and accompanied by a high number of tables and graphs. The interested reader should find the entire composition of the Romanian national movement’s leadership, minimal biographical data about the members of the elite (year of birth, denomination, place of residence, profession and so on), as well as the analysis of some statistical indicators meant to illustrate its evolution. This book was not intended to be a history of the Romanian political elite in Transylvania and Hungary, nor a substitute for the lack of such a history. Its content is rather technical, being conceived firstly for historians, mainly for those outside Romania, whose access to the multitude of local biographical sources is limited. It can be viewed as a commented catalogue of part of the elite.
