 Sybille Sachs, Edwin Rühli, Der Novartis Mega-Merger, Zeitschrift Führung und Organisation, Vol. 6 (68), 1999. (Journal Article)
Mega-Mergers, wie beispielsweise der Zusammenschluss von Ciba und Sandoz zu Novartis, gehören zweifellos zu den fundamentalsten strategischen Veränderungen im Leben von Unternehmungen. Eine adäquate Erklärung und erst recht die Prognose über das Zustandekommen und den Verlauf solcher Ereignisse stellt höchste Anforderungen an die Betriebswirtschaftslehre. Im nachfolgenden Artikel soll das Geschehen vor und unmittelbar nach der Mega-Fusion von Novartis auf der Basis einer evolutionären Betrachtungsweise analysiert werden. Dies führt zu Anregungen für Theorie und Praxis bezüglich der Erklärung und Gestaltung von Fusionen in der Realität. |

Christoph Zaborowski, Peter Zweifel, Getting out of debt: Garnishment of wage in whose interest?, European Journal of Law and Economics, Vol. 8 (3), 1999. (Journal Article)
Garnishment of wage as a way for creditors to enforce payment by unwilling or insolvent debtors, while very common in Germany and Switzerland, is not very successful. Based on a dynamic model of debtor behaviour, this paper explores two alternatives of reform. One is to reduce the rate of garnishment, which at present amounts to 100 percent of the wage income exceeding a defined subsistence level, thus probably destroying incentives to work. According to model simulations, reducing the rate of garnishment is likely to result in an increase of labour supply but a decrease of garnishment revenue per period. Second, the introduction of a debt release as it exists in the United States would have an ambiguous effect on labour supply. While providing debtors with a fresh start, it would result a partial loss for creditors. A Pareto improvement thus does not seem to be possible. When taxpayers as an involved third party are taken into account, however, a potential Pareto improvement appears attainable through debt release. |

Johann K Brunner, Josef Falkinger, Taxation in an economy with private provision, Review of Economic Design, Vol. 4 (4), 1999. (Journal Article)
This paper analyses the effects of taxation and subsidies in an economy with private provision of a public good. It is shown that in a situation where all individuals contribute, taxation affects the equilibrium allocation if and only if at least one individual's voluntary contribution to the public good has an impact on the aggregate tax payments of the others. We then consider linear nonneutral tax-subsidy schemes and analyse efficiency and uniqueness of the resulting Nash equilibria. We show that an efficient Nash equilibrium, where all individuals contribute, will in general not be unique, and establish a non-uniformity property which a tax-subsidy scheme must fulfil in order to induce a unique interior equilibrium that is efficient. Throughout the paper it is assumed that individuals fully understand and take into account the government's budget constraint. |

Armin Schmutzler, The new economic geography, Journal of Economic Surveys, Vol. 13 (4), 1999. (Journal Article)
Recently, the 'new economic geography' literature has developed as a theory of the emergence of large agglomerations which relies on increasing returns to scale and transportation costs. This literature builds on diverse intellectual traditions. It combines the insights of traditional regional science with those of modern trade theory and thus attempts to provide an integrative approach to interregional and international trade. The paper surveys this literature and discusses its relation to earlier approaches to similar topics. |

Rainer Winkelmann, Wages, firm size and absenteeism, Applied Economics Letters, Vol. 6 (6), 1999. (Journal Article)
This paper examines two competing explanations for workers' absenteeism, the shirking hypothesis and the adjustment-to-equilibrium hypothesis. Data on German workers for 1985-88 from the German SocioEconomic Panel are used in order to estimate the determinants of workers' absenteeism. The results indicate that firm size matters after wage effects are controlled for. This evidence supports the shirking hypothesis. |
