Whilst there is widespread agreement about the goals of economic policy, consensus about how best to achieve them can be harder to achieve. No issues are more contentious than employment and income distribution. In recent years full employment and a just distribution of incomes have been downgraded as policy objectives, as greater priority has been given to price stability and balance of payments objectives. This emphasis has been supported by a mainstream economic theory which has an unswerving belief in the ability of market forces to achieve a satisfactory regulation of employment and income distributionOther economists have remained more sceptical, and none more so than Kurt Rothschild. This new volume collects together his twenty two most important essays in the area, many of which are appearing in English for the first time. Throughout pure theory is linked to relevant practical investigations.

This distinguished book provides a critical assessment of the relationship between economic theory, scientific objectivity and ethics.The main purpose of economic science is to analyse and 'explain' the economic process but not necessarily to pass judgement as to whether this process is 'good' or 'bad'. However, in practice it is very difficult for the economist to study the 'laws' of economics without ever touching ethical questions. It is shown that economic theories - despite avowals of scientific objectivity - contain implicitly or explicitly many aspects which have ethical implications.Making extensive use of real-life examples and offering a new perspective on the ethical dimensions of economic analysis, this book will prove essential reading for economists and philosophers alike.

Der Sammelband beinhaltet wesentliche Ergebnisse eines funfjahrigen Forschungsschwerpunktes zum Thema Dynamik der Arbeitslosigkeit und Beschaftigung in Osterreich. Die soziologischen Beitrage behandeln eher grundsatzliche methodische Fragen: Wertewandel und Wahrnehmung der Arbeitslosigkeit, Zivilisierung von Arbeit und Arbeitslosigkeit, soziale Genese der Arbeitsmarkstatistik. Der Grossteil der Untersuchungen ist okonomischer Natur. Neben kohortenspezifischen Analysen der Erwerbsbeteiligung steht die Isolierung von Bestimmungsfaktoren der Arbeitslosigkeit in dynamischer Sicht im Mittelpunkt der auf Osterreich bezogenen empirischen Arbeiten. Damit werden neueste Methoden der Arbeitsmarktforschung erstmalig auf osterreichisches Datenmaterial angewendet und deren Ergebnisse vergleichbaren internationalen Studien gegenubergestellt. Entscheidend ist auch die uberwiegend in den Koreferaten zum Ausdruck kommende Auseinandersetzung mit der wirtschafts- und arbeitsmarktpolitischen Praxis. Am Rande werden regionale Aspekte der Arbeitsmarktentwicklung untersucht. Als nachfrageseitige Erganzung werden Einflusse des Handels mit den Entwicklungslandern auf die Beschaftigung analysiert.Ein eingeladener Beitrag widmet sich den Entwicklungen am schweizerischen Arbeitsmarkt.
