We estimate the effect of industrial robots on employment, wages, and the composition of jobs in German labor markets between 1994 and 2014. We find that the adoption of industrial robots had no effect on total employment in local labor markets specializing in industries with high robot usage.
Am Girls’Day öffnete das Leibniz-Institut für Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH) seine Türen, um Schülerinnen die Arbeit mit ökonomischen Themen näher zu bringen. Wir gaben Einblicke in die Arbeit an unserem Institut und stellten spannende Berufe im Bereich der Volkswirtschaftslehre vor. Außerdem konnten die Schülerinnen an einem verhaltensökonomischen Experiment teilnehmen. Denn wer weiß, wie Menschen Entscheidungen treffen, versteht besser, wie Wirtschaft tickt.
Unter dem Titel "Vereintes Land – drei Jahrzehnte nach dem Mauerfall" führte das Leibniz-Institut für Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH) am 6. März 2019 von 10:00 bis 16:00 Uhr eine Tagung durch. Den Eröffnungsvortrag hielt Dr. Reiner Haseloff, Ministerpräsident des Landes Sachsen-Anhalt.
The workshop provided a platform to discuss new developments in the field of empirical and applied macroeconomic modelling and aimed at bringing together academic researchers and practitioners. We called for applied and theoretical papers dealing with time series, business cycles, economic uncertainty and expectations. Papers that explicitly covered the macroeconomic modelling on uncertainty and expectations were particularly welcome.
The aim of this workshop is to bring together original economic and inter-disciplinary papers that cast some light on new developments in theoretical and empirical research from all fields of local public economics and local public finance. The workshop should also give PhD students an opportunity of presenting and discussing their research results.
