Wirtschaftspolitik.cc ist ein interaktives Online Lehrbuch zur Einführung in die Perspektiven der Wirtschaftspolitik. Ziel ist eine Einführung in sechs Teilbereiche der Wirtschaftspolitik (von denen bisher vier online sind) auf Abitur/Bachelor Niveau. Themen sind: - Kontroversen um wirtschaftspolitische Ziele - Bekämpfung von Arbeitslosigkeit (angebots- vs. nachfrageorientierter Wirtschaftspolitik) - Stabilisation der Wirtschaft (Konjunktur & Krisen) - Bewältigung von internationalen Herausforderungen (- Politik gegen die Klimakrise) (- Kontroversen um Verteilung von Einkommen und Vermögen) Das Onlinelehrbuch enthält viele Grafiken zu den jeweils passenden Daten und führt in grundlegende Inhalte der VWL (Arbeitsmarktstatistik, VGR, etc.) ein. Auch werden Konflikte zwischen unterschiedlichen Denkschulen thematisiert und in diese knappt eingeführt (Neoklassik, Keynesianismus, Monetarismus, Postkeynesianismus).

Kommentar von unseren Editor*innen:

Wipo.cc stammt von Till van Treeck sowie Julian Becker (beide Universität Duisburg-Essen). Sie sind beide Teil des Masterstudiengangs Sozioökonomie. Auch wenn sich das Niveau auf Abitur- bzw. Bachelorlevel bewegt, ist dieses Onlinelehrbuch sicherlich eine gute Einführung für alldiejenigen, die noch nicht mit der Kritik des ökonomischen Mainstreams in Berührung gekommen sind.

Asimismo, comprendidos sus aspectos más característicos, busca identificar y analizar algunos desafíos para su fortalecimiento y ampliación. Para esto analiza diversos trabajos referidos tanto a la ESS como a los CES. 2020 Level: advanced Los circuitos económicos solidarios como noción referencial Raúl González Meyer Revista Economia The notion that the demand and supply side are independent is a key feature of textbook undergraduate economics and of modern macroeconomic models. Economic output is thought to be constrained by the productive capabilities of the economy - the ‘supply-side' - through technology, demographics and capital investment. In the short run a boost in demand may increase GDP and employment due to frictions such as sticky wages, but over the long-term successive rises in demand without corresponding improvements on the supply side can only create inflation as the economy reaches capacity. In this post I will explore the alternative idea of demand-led growth, where an increase in demand can translate into long-run supply side gains. This theory is most commonly associated with post-Keynesian economics, though it has been increasingly recognised in the mainstream literature. 2020 Level: beginner It’s Demand All the Way Down Cahal Moran Rethinking Economics In this paper the main developments in post-Keynesian macroeconomics since the mid- 1990s will be reviewed. For this purpose the main differences between heterodox economics in general, including post-Keynesian economics, and orthodox economics will be reiterated and an overview over the strands of post-Keynesian economics, their commonalities and developments since the 1930s will be outlined. This will provide the grounds for touching upon three important areas of development and progress of post-Keynesian macroeconomics since the mid-1990s: first, the integration of distribution issues and distributional conflict into short- and long-run macroeconomics, both in theoretical and in empirical/applied works; second, the integrated analysis of money, finance and macroeconomics and its application to changing institutional and historical circumstances, like the process of financialisation; and third, the development of full-blown macroeconomic models, providing alternatives to the mainstream 'New Consensus Model' (NCM), and allowing to derive a full macroeconomic policy mix as a more convincing alternative to the one implied and proposed by the mainstream NCM, which has desperately failed in the face of the recent crises. 2012 Level: advanced Post-Keynesian macroeconomics since the mid-1990s: Main developments Eckhart Hein Institute for International Political Economy Berlin The postcolonial critique of Economics is one of the sharpest and most comprehensive indictments of the discipline, highlighting the discipline's limited treatment of power and culture and the incompatibility of the discipline's theoretical frameworks and predictions with the contexts of most formerly colonised territories.
