Vox aims to promote research-based policy analysis and commentary by leading scholars. The intended audience is economists in governments, international organisations, academia and the private sector as well as journalists specialising in economics, finance and business.Germany’s transformation from the ‘sick man of Europe’ in the 1990s to its world leadership of global exports today is an astounding phenomenon. Intrinsically linked to Eastern European trade liberalization, Germany’s newly-decentralised firm structures and labour markets flourished in building production networks that have proven remarkably resilient. This eBook explains Germany’s extraordinary recovery. The authors’ central focus was the transformation of the country’s industrial relations, which decentralised wage bargaining and in turn decreased labour costs while increasing competitiveness. |
