Download or read book Greek Employment Relations in Crisis written by Horen Voskeritsian and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-03-14 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Greece’s economy and society have undergone important structural changes in recent years as a result of the financial crisis and consequent austerity policies that have been implemented. The Greek labour market and employment relations system have been subject to immense pressures, leading to fundamental changes both in the structure of institutions and in the behaviour of the main employment relations actors. The present volume constitutes a first attempt to appreciate the consequences of a decade of austerity politics on the Greek labour market. Offering a multidisciplinary perspective and building on original research by leading Greek scholars in the fields of labour economics, employment relations and the sociology of work, it will discuss the impact of the crisis and the resulting policies on the Greek labour market and employment relations. This volume will be of interest to policy makers, researchers and students interested in the past, present and future of Greek employment relations and the impact of austerity on Greece.

Download or read book Unemployment in Greece written by Mr.Dimitri G. Demekas and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1996-08-01 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Greek unemployment rate rose from 2 percent in the 1960s to 9-10 percent in the 1990s. This reflected the increase in female participation rates, the slowdown in growth, the restructuring of production, and the increased mismatch between jobs and job seekers. But the most crucial factor was the persistence of real wage aspirations. The paper develops and tests a model that attributes this to the rapid expansion in the number of easy, life-time government jobs and the increase in the public/private wage differential during the 1980s.
Download or read book Human Capital and Production Structure in the Greek Economy written by Panagiotis E. Petrakis and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-09-03 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The role of human capital has diversified considerably in the last 100 years. Today, the prevailing perception seeks a sustainable, integrated development which is based on the triptych of environment, economy, and society. In this mode of development, human capital has a positive effect on the economy, on social cohesion and optimal governance, as well as on the ecological footprint. This book studies the critical role of human capital in the Greek economy and its production structure. In doing so, this book analyzes the Greek labor market, employment, and structural changes, among other facets of this vibrant economy.
Download or read book The Rebirth of the Greek Labor Market written by P. Petrakis and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-12-16 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Rebirth of the Greek Labor Market provides evidence of the macroeconomic evolution of the Greek economy, as well as current conditions in the labor market, to suggest potential areas of growth following the crisis. The contributors of this collection focus on three main issues that make the overall volume distinctive. Firstly, the authors develop a macro-econometric model for the Greek economy, which is flexible in terms of policy analysis and provides reasonable forecasts for the period between 2014-2020, under three scenarios. Secondly, the authors analyze the dynamism in the Greek economy, as well as the problematic Greek labor market. Lastly, using the estimations provided by the macro-econometric model developed, an input-output analysis is conducted - for every one of the three scenarios - in order to investigate and quantify the impact of the economic crisis, not only to the total employment but also in the number of employees by occupation, for all productive sectors of the economy. Using this structure, this indispensable new volume identifies the occupations, professions, and sectors with the greatest losses, as well as those showing a positive momentum, up to 2020.

Download or read book The Making of the Ancient Greek Economy written by Alain Bresson and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-11-03 with total page 649 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A revolutionary account of the ancient Greek economy This comprehensive introduction to the ancient Greek economy revolutionizes our understanding of the subject and its possibilities. Alain Bresson is one of the world's leading authorities in the field, and he is helping to redefine it. Here he combines a thorough knowledge of ancient sources with innovative new approaches grounded in recent economic historiography to provide a detailed picture of the Greek economy between the last century of the Archaic Age and the closing of the Hellenistic period. Focusing on the city-state, which he sees as the most important economic institution in the Greek world, Bresson addresses all of the city-states rather than only Athens. An expanded and updated English edition of an acclaimed work originally published in French, the book offers a groundbreaking new theoretical framework for studying the economy of ancient Greece; presents a masterful survey and analysis of the most important economic institutions, resources, and other factors; and addresses some major historiographical debates. Among the many topics covered are climate, demography, transportation, agricultural production, market institutions, money and credit, taxes, exchange, long-distance trade, and economic growth. The result is an unparalleled demonstration that, unlike just a generation ago, it is possible today to study the ancient Greek economy as an economy and not merely as a secondary aspect of social or political history. This is essential reading for students, historians of antiquity, and economic historians of all periods.

Download or read book Youth policy in Greece written by Sladjana Petkovic and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2015-06-01 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Greece is the 20th country to have had its youth policy reviewed by an international review team appointed by the Council of Europe. The financial crisis and resulting high unemployment rate, especially among young people, was the major concern encountered by the review team. Although the crisis has compelled Greece to engage in profound fiscal reform and address many of its structural weaknesses, this has not been matched by labour market activation policies and other youth policy measures needed to reverse the mood of despondency and stem the tide of emigration of young people. This international review focused in particular on two aspects of youth transitions: the transition from the education system to the labour market; and the related issue of military service and conscription, which is an integral part of life for young men in Greece. The review team also considered characteristics of the public administration, which dwells on bureaucratic compliance and has limited scope and licence for fostering initiative and creativity, despite incessant rhetoric about the need for “entrepreneurship”. The review team advocates the establishment of more creative and innovative mechanisms to free the entrepreneurial and participative spirit not only of young people in Greece, but also of its regional and local administrations, youth organisations and local youth councils, in order for them to provide timely and purposeful intervention, opportunity and support according to local need and circumstances.

Download or read book The Greek Labour Market Before and After the Pandemic written by Christos Antonopoulos and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Greek labour market recorded a significant improvement during the first half of 2022. This is encouraging and reflects, inter alia, output growth, the government support measures during the pandemic and the implementation of important structural reforms during the previous decade. However, in the current inflationary environment, the question that arises is whether the labour market is slack or tight and whether wage pressures may be emerging. This article draws on diverse sources of information on the labour market, in an attempt to shed some light on this question and examine how the Greek labour market evolved before and after the pandemic. In sum, unemployment remains high in Greece, well above the euro area average, and labour market slack is still evident by most measures. However, pockets of tightening are beginning to emerge at the sectoral level. Moreover, slack is declining at a fast pace, much faster than in the euro area, as suggested by the drop in unemployment over the past three years. The high share of long-term unemployment and the rather elevated estimates of efficient unemployment presented in this article also point in the same direction. Given the recent strong employment growth and the prospect of a significant need for additional labour over the coming years due to the implementation of the NextGenerationEU plan, labour market tightness could increase further. This concern is further compounded by extensive survey evidence of skills mismatches in the Greek labour market, which are known to adversely affect allocative efficiency and, thus, productivity. Looking ahead, it is important to pursue labour market policies aimed at increasing participation rates and upskilling or reskilling the labour force, including in particular the long-term unemployed.
Download or read book Funding the Greek Crisis written by Constantinos Ikonomou and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2018-06-15 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does one distinguish between European Union investments that improve welfare and those that create economic malaise? Funding the Greek Crisis: The European Union, Cohesion Policies, and the Great Recession explores the sources of the Greek Crisis that lie primarily in EU policies that appeared to have worked better for other countries but not for Greece. Without overly simplifying the Greek condition, it provides insights into policies the countries of the euro area may need to implement in order to ensure collective cohesion and individual success. Arguing that EU preferences for autonomous investments discouraged organic development with lasting implications, Funding the Greek Crisis sheds new light on the nature of regional competitiveness and public economics. Encompasses public economics, macroeconomics, international trade, competitiveness, microeconomics and regional development studies Sheds light on key policies that affect millions of EU citizens Examines Solow’s growth model Provides a different way of explaining growth from real business cycle theory
