Book Competition among Institutions

Download or read book Competition among Institutions written by Luder Gerken and published by Springer. This book was released on 1996-01-12 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economists generally accept that competition discloses knowledge, enhances efficiency and restrains power. However, these effects of competition have so far been discussed mainly with respect to economic markets in which firms and households compete within a given set of institutions, that is within a given legal order. The question arises whether competition may also have comparable effects on the institutional level in the sense of competition among legal orders and thus serve as an antidote to today's problems. The present book addresses some of the fundamental aspects associated with institutional competition and identifies some possible lines for further research on how institutions can compete to bring about social and economic change.

Book The Challenges for Russia s Politicized Economic System

Download or read book The Challenges for Russia s Politicized Economic System written by Susanne Oxenstierna and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-04-10 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the early 2000s the market liberalization reforms to the Russian economy, begun in the 1990s, were consolidated. But since the mid 2000s economic policy has moved into a new phase, characterized by more state intervention with less efficiency and more structural problems. Corruption, weak competitiveness, heavy dependency on energy exports, an unbalanced labour market, and unequal regional development are trends that have arisen and which, this book argues, will worsen unless the government changes direction. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the current Russian economic system, highlighting especially structural and institutional defects, and areas where political considerations are causing distortions, and puts forward proposals on how the present situation could be remedied.

Book Towards Competition in Network Industries

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 574 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Competition in network industries faces particular problems which are analyzed from both a theoretical and policy perspective. Issues of vertical integration, deregulation and privatization are covered. While competition and privatization are rapidly unfolding in telecommunications in Western and Eastern Europe, energy and railway transportation represent sectors of more gradual liberalization. The different market characteristics of telecommunications, energy and transportation raise consistency problems in the fields of deregulation, investment strategies and internationalization. While transformation policies create opportunities for liberalization in Eastern Europe and Russia the latter shows critical problems in ending monopoly and state ownership. Network industries could be subject to competition and promise major investment opportunities plus consumer benefits.

Book Regulation of Municipal Property in European countries

Download or read book Regulation of Municipal Property in European countries written by Wolfgang Tiede and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2011-03-31 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Project Report from the year 2007 in the subject Law - European and International Law, Intellectual Properties, , language: English, abstract: In nearly all countries, municipalities own or control substantial amounts of real estate, but few municipal governments think of their holdings as a “portfolio” whose composition might be modified to better serve public purposes. Economists therefore propose that legal and institutional frameworks should be set up in order to enable efficient real property asset management on the local level. However, there are good reasons why municipalities may only participate in economic life in exceptional cases. One reason arises from private law: local authority economic enterprises should not be in competition with the private sector in the free market economy. Another reason is derived from public law: activity and involvement in competition are associated with risks for the municipality. Those risks local authorities should not expose themselves to.
