In the paper, some empirical results from a macroeconometric disequilibrium model for the Federal Republic of Germany are reported. In the theoretical model, a delayed adjustment of employment and investment is analyzed. Market disequilibrium is introduced by allowing for a sluggish adjustment...

This paper aims to describe the calculation of environmental and health externalities caused by air pollutants, accidents and noise from different transport modes (road, rail, air) on the route Frankfurt-Milan. The investigation is part of the QUITS project (QUITS = Quality Indicators for...

This paper analyses the determinants of employment reactions of firms when environmental innovations have been carried out. It differentiates hereby between employment increases and decreases. The data stem from a telephone survey covering more than 1500 firms in five European countries that...

A dynamic model of the firm is worked out, which pays special attention to a delayed adjustment of employment, investment, and the production technology. A three-step decision structure is assumed, with short-run adjustment of output, medium-run adjustment of employment, and long-run adjustment...

This paper analyses the determinants of employment reactions induced by environmental innovations. On the basis of the parameter estimates of the Multinomial Logit and of several Multinomial Probit Models, we show that we have to distinguish between the factors that have an impact on employment...

This paper is devoted t.o an interpretation of both vacancy data and the Beveridgecurve. Officially reported vacancy data are critically reviewed. The theoretical foundation and empirical application of the Beveridge-curve is examined. We find that the Beveridge-curve is everything but a...

This paper constitutes an interim report on the development of a macroeconometric disequilibrium model. Despite several caveats the model as it stands can be used already for two purposes. First, it is possible to investigate the models forecasting abilities. While the estimation period of the...

This paper analyses the determinants of employment reactions in-duced by environmental innovations. On the basis of the parameter estimates of the Multinomial Logit and of several Multinomial Probit Models, we show that we have to distinguish between the factors that have an impact on employment...
