Beyond Collective Agreements: The Rise of the Wage Cushion in Germany

LABOUR, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Representative establishment data reveal that over 60% of German plants covered by collective agreements pay wages above the level stipulated in the agreements, creating a wage cushion between actual and contractual wages. While collective bargaining coverage has fallen over time, the prevalence of wage cushions has increased, particularly in ...

Magnetic-island induced geometric stabilization of turbulence triggering eITB bifurcation

Nuclear Fusion
We demonstrate that geometric deformation of flux-surface induced by a magnetic island can trigger the bifurcation to an electron internal transport barrier (eITB) through a novel positive feedback loop arising from the nonlinear coupling between the ...

Solving Stochastic Climate‐Economy Models: A Deep Least‐Squares Monte Carlo Approach

Mathematical Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stochastic versions of recursive integrated climate‐economy assessment models are essential for studying and quantifying policy decisions under uncertainty. However, as the number of state variables and stochastic shocks increases, solving these models via deterministic grid‐based dynamic programming (e.g., value‐function iteration/projection ...

How Are “Financial Balances” Financed? Wicksell, (Keynes) and the US Mainstream Don't Fit Today's Institutions; Kalecki, Triffin, and Minsky Got it Right

Metroeconomica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The paper examines the financial balances of the US economy. Government is the main borrower and households and the foreign sector the main lenders. Business net lending is minimal. The balances and their underlying transactions contradict the loanable funds theory and its “global savings glut” variation.

Revising Structuralism in Times of Crisis: Lance Taylor and the Neo‐Structuralist Synthesis in the 1980s

Metroeconomica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article places the work of Lance Taylor in the broader context of efforts in the 1980s to renew the structuralist tradition of development economics, into what was then newly coined as neo‐structuralism. These efforts centred around three groups: CEPAL, Lance Taylor and his team at MIT, and a group of economists based at the Institute of ...

Using ASCOT to encode neoclassical collisional physics as prior in fast-ion distribution reconstructions

Nuclear Fusion
Measuring 3D or 4D fast-ion distribution function relies on using prior information in some form due to the ill-conditioned nature of the underlying inverse problem.

What Are The Drivers of Labor Productivity in Italy?

Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper introduces a novel sign restriction identification within a structural Bayesian vector autoregression (VAR) to analyse how labour productivity responds to supply and demand shocks and to quantify the contribution of shocks to cyclical fluctuations.

Neoclassical transport properties of tokamak plasmas

, 2002
The classical transport theory is strictly valid for a plasma in a homogeneous and stationary magnetic field. In the '60, experiments have shown that this theory does not apply as a local theory of transport in Tokamaks.
