United country – three decades after the Wall came down
One-off Publications,
2019
Abstract
The Berlin Wall, once the symbol of the divided Germany, has now been gone for longer than it ever existed. But the differences within the country are still visible. However, recent research suggests that different economic development does not always follow the former inner-German border. Apart from the west-east divide, differences also emerge between the south and the north or between the cities and the country.

Abstract
Sachsen-Anhalt ist als mittelalterliches Zentrum der Ottonen und als Ursprungsland der Reformation ein »Kernland deutscher Geschichte« und besitzt deutschlandweit die meisten Weltkulturerbestätten. Doch nicht nur historisch und kulturell hat das Land viel zu bieten, auch gesellschaftlich und politisch ist es einen genaueren Blick wert. Die Landeskunde soll diese Facetten des Bundeslandes beleuchten. In 16 aufschlussreichen Beiträgen erfährt der Leser, was Sachsen-Anhalt ausmacht, bewegt und prägt. Ein Anhang listet die Regierungen des Bundeslandes von 1990 bis 2017 auf.

H.-G. Jeong, G. Heimpold (Hrsg.), Economic Development after German Unification and Implications for Korea. Policy References 18-08. Sejong: Korea Institute for International Economic Policy,
2018
Abstract
The situation on the Korean Peninsula entered a new phase following the 2018 Winter Olympics, further evolving through the April 27 inter-Korean summit and June 12 Singapore summit between the U.S. and North Korea. Expectations are high for new exchanges and cooperation that would potentially lead to peace and prosperity on the Korean Peninsula. This would be a great chance to depart from hostility that has lasted over decades. However, it is expected to take some time until economic cooperation between the two Koreas resumes, as the negotiations for denuclearization still remain unresolved.

Innovation Cooperation in East and West Germany: A Study on the Regional and Technological Impact
Uwe Cantner, Alexander Giebler, Jutta Günther, Maria Kristalova, Andreas Meder
International Journal of Computational Economics and Econometrics,
forthcoming
Abstract
In this paper, we investigate the impact of regional and technological innovation systems on innovation cooperation. We develop an indicator applicable to regions, which demonstrates the relative regional impact on innovation cooperation. Applying this method to German patent data, we find that regional differences in the degree of innovation cooperation do not only depend on the technology structure of a region but also on specific regional effects. High-tech oriented regions, whether east or west, are not automatically highly cooperative regions. East German regions have experienced a dynamic development of innovation cooperation since re-unification in 1990. Their cooperation intensity remains higher than in West German regions.
