Preparing the Soil to make Economic Growth Sustainable - Insights into Cultural Factors and Discretionary Policy Measures
Economic growth is the core topic for both economic researchers and economic policy makers. Thereby two questions are regarded as central: What are the factors that establish high growth? And how can sustainable growth, i.e. the avoidance of severe fluctuations, be achieved? Indeed, basically all areas of economics, from finance to labor economics, from development economics to industrial organization, from competition economics to environmental economics aim to achieve knowledge that directly (or indirectly) helps to understand and create growth that is both sufficient and sustainable.
