Chinas neue Seidenstraße: Kooperation statt Isolation - Der Rollentausch im Welthandel

Erstmals werden die globalen Veranderungen in der Weltwirtschaft analysiert, die durch Chinas geopolitisches Agieren zu erwarten sind und die sich als Gegenpol zum angelsachsischen Isolationismus abzeichnen. DAs Reich der Mitte steht wie Deutschland in der US-amerikanischen Kritik zu hoher Handelsuberschusse. DAher dreht sich das Buch um die chinesische Vision neuer Welthandelsrouten nach dem Vorbild der alten SeidenstraSSe(n) ins 21. JAhrhundert - die "One Belt One Road (OBOR)"-Initiative. GEstutzt auf einen historischen Exkurs zu den einst weltgroSSten HandelsstraSSen wird gezeigt, wie sowohl Kontinente uberspannend als auch auf dem maritimen Weg die betreffenden Regionen neu entwickelt und vernetzt werden sollen. DAbei geht es nicht nur um infrastrukturelle MaSSnahmen, sondern auch um die Verbindung mit Innovationsstrategien in den Schlusselbereichen jeder modernen Wirtschaft wie etwa Digitalisierung, Ressourcenschonung oder Mobilitat.

Internationale Sportevents im Umbruch?

In this book, experts discuss how German real estate values have remained stable throughout the financial crisis, even though transaction volumes have been very volatile since 2005. Consequently, risk-averse national and international investors have started to invest in virtually all German real estate asset classes. This book tries to answer what has made the German real estate markets more resilient to shocks than many European real estate markets by analyzing the economic, regulatory and demographic environment. In 30 well-structured chapters, experts from both the academic and professional world analyze structural and current issues of German real estate markets. Readers will get a deep understanding of what makes the German real estate market special and where potential opportunities and threats in Europe’s largest real estate market exist.

Understanding German Real Estate Markets

Herbert Wilkens

This publication contains a selection of papers presented at a conference discussing fundamental issues in the economics of transition, aspects of liberalization/privatization/stabilization and the experience of selected countries. The sessions lead to a number of hypotheses:- There is a need to analyze historical and economic aspects of phases of relative success of the socialist system of central planning- Next to the important role of distribution of personal incomes and wealth for the success of the transformation process, the question of "optimal change of personal income and wealth distribution" during the process of transformation has to be raised.- In assessing the costs and benefits of reform policies, any methodological approach should take into account an intertemporal perspective- How much does the EU continue protectionism against countries which will not become its members in the near future?- The role of the institutional environment shall not be neglected when analyzing the process of transition: financial markets e. g. are of great relevance for sound development.- An early status of independence for the central bank from public finance obligations appears to help to eliminate the monetary overhang.- A quick, almost instant liberalization strategy (countries of Central and Eastern Europe) seems to be more successful than gradual liberalization (Russia, Ukraine, Belarus) along with interventionism of trade policy.
