EuropeTags : Emploi Travail Allemagne Europe Index. décimale : 05.01 Travail - Généralités Résumé : Since the 2008-2009 global financial and economic crisis, the division within the European Union and the eurozone has deepened. Crisis-hit countries such as Greece and Spain have experienced five years of economic contraction, unemployment rates continue in some cases to top the 25% mark, and the majority of their populations are living on the brink.
This situation stands in stark contrast with those countries which – for now at least – have emerged as winners from the crisis. Germany in particular is seen as a model pupil. But is the “German job miracle” really a suitable model for the rest of Europe? Klaus Dörre has his doubts.
Based on his own research, he takes a critical look behind the appealing facade of the “German model”. He describes a society of full but precarious employment, in which people in insecure jobs and the socially excluded pay the price for an export model that is exacerbating inequalities in Europe and so destroying the foundations of its own success.En ligne : https://www.rosalux.eu/fileadmin/user_upload/miracle-allemand.pdf Le miracle allemand de l'emploi : un modèle pour l'Europe?

Titre : Modernité, religion et démocratie : Critique de l'eurocentrisme, critique des culturalismes Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Samir Amin, Auteur Editeur : Lyon : Parangon/Vs Année de publication : 2008 Importance : 250 p Langues : Français (fre) Catégories : Europe
DémocratieTags : Religion Démocratie Eurocentrisme Culturalisme Résumé : La modernité associe raison et émancipation, ouvre la voie à la démocratie, implique la laïcité et rénove sur cette base la politique. Produit du capitalisme naissant, elle poursuit son chemin en association étroite avec l'expansion mondialisée de celui-ci. La modernité a imposé une réinterprétation des religions pour les rendre compatibles avec son affirmation que l'être humain fait son histoire. Le culturalisme eurocentrique a donné à ces révisions religieuses la place de cause première de la transformation. Samir Amin prend ici le contre-pied de ces théories : ces réinterprétations ont été le produit des exigences de la transformation sociale, non leur cause. La modernité est aujourd'hui en crise, parce que les contradictions du capitalisme mondialisé polarisant sont devenues telles qu'il met désormais lui-même en danger la civilisation humaine. Le capitalisme a fait son temps. U idéologie bourgeoise a renoncé à son ambition universaliste pour lui substituer le discours des " spécificités culturelles " irréductibles. En contrepoint, ce livre invite à la réflexion à partir d'une vision de la modernité comme processus toujours inachevé, qui ne pourra franchir l'étape de sa crise mortelle en cours qu'en allant de l'avant, par la réinvention de valeurs universelles porteuses d'une reconstruction économique, sociale et politique de toutes les sociétés de la planète. Samir Amin se livre à une critique systématique de la déformation eurocentrique dans la vision du monde, de son passé et de son avenir, ainsi que des eurocentrismes inversés que sont les réponses culturalistes du tiers-monde.

This is based on four main principles:
You are covered by the legislation of one country at a time so you only pay contributions in one country
You have the same rights and obligations as the nationals of the country where you are covered
When you claim a benefit, your previous periods of insurance, work or residence in other countries are taken into account if necessary
If you are entitled to a cash benefit from one country, you may generally receive it even if you are living in a different countryEn ligne : http://www.cetim.ch/fr/multimedia_cd-rom.php Moving in Europe : Your social security rights [document multimédia] . - [S.l.] : European Union, 2008 . - ; CDRom.

Titre : A New Architecture for Public Investment in Europe Type de document : document électronique Auteurs : Natacha Valla, Auteur ; Thomas Brand, Auteur ; Sébastien Doisy Editeur : Paris [France] : CEPII Année de publication : 2014 Collection : Policy Brief num. 4 Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Politique économique
EuropeTags : Investissement public Europe EIB Investissement privé Politique économique Résumé : Some five years after the severe recession of 2009, private sector investment in Europe is still dangerously sluggish. And public sector investment has been cut, reinforcing the downward trend seen over the past thirty years.
In this paper, we discuss the complementarity between private and public sector investment. Evidence suggests that in the medium term, public investment does not hinder, but fosters, the quantity and efficiency of private investment. Moreover, our fiscal multiplier for public investment (at 1.4, considerably above ‘breakeven’) is significantly stronger than those for other fiscal instruments. Taken together, these two findings suggest that the public sphere would be well advised to tilt spending towards investment in areas such as infrastructure and human capital, which represent an investment for future generations.
A new European initiative might be needed to get investment back on track and thus protect future growth. To this end we propose establishing, by treaty, a Eurosystem of Investment Banks (ESIB), around a pan-European financial capacity that would coordinate the actions of the national public investment banks of Euro area member states and add to their funding capacity. The ESIB would channel the Euro area’s excess savings towards investment in the right places throughout the continent. To do so in an economically sustainable and financially profitable way, funding would be conditional on firm commitments to growth-enhancing structural reforms and economic policies.
Our proposed Eurosystem of Investment Banks (ESIB) would be structured around a federal centre and national entities. The central node, the Fede Fund, would be created by restructuring the European Investment Bank into a truly federal entity. The Fede Fund would orchestrate the joint work of national investment and development banks with a clear European map in mind.
The mandate of the ESIB, enshrined in the Treaty, would be to promote long-term growth, well-being and employment in Europe. The mandate would, by definition, reflect a political consensus emanating democratically from the people of the Euro area member states.
The ownership and governance of the Fede Fund would be key in ring-fencing the investment process from national political agendas not linked to the promotion of long-term growth. We propose a structure with both public and private Fede shareholders, who would collectively elect the ESIB Board of Directors. The Fede Fund would also issue debt to finance investment at an economically relevant scale (10% of Euro area GDP, so around €1tn).En ligne : http://www.cepii.fr/CEPII/fr/publications/pb/abstract.asp?NoDoc=7030 A New Architecture for Public Investment in Europe [document électronique] / Natacha Valla, Auteur ; Thomas Brand, Auteur ; Sébastien Doisy . - Paris (113, rue de Grenelle, 75007, France) : CEPII, 2014. - (Policy Brief; 4) .
