Economy

Germans Opt Out Of “Hartz IV”

Annett Witte and Liberales Institut/March 5, 2019 /Leave a comment

The study presents different models which take into account the consequences for the individual, the state budget, and the labor market. The suggested reform variants make it a significantly more attractive option for Hartz IV recipients to work more, by raising income retention by up to 40 percent.

Economy

Enter: Regional Economic Differences in Germany

Dirk Assmann and Liberales Institut/August 6, 2018August 6, 2018 /Leave a comment

Regional economic differences are not the exclusive preserve of Germany. They exist in almost all economies. However, the inequality between east and west Germany, can also be explained by means of a different divide: the economic gap between urban and rural areas.

Citizens, Stop Staring at Your Screens… Education as Civic Duty

Thomas Volkmann and Liberales Institut/July 31, 2018 /Leave a comment

Perceiving, enforcing, and defending freedom requires character traits which need to be taught and trained. Civic and political education has to empower people not just to recognize and comprehend the complexity of the modern lifeworld, but also to master it.

Germany’s Smart Farm: Digital Technology in Agriculture

Christine Frohn and Liberales Institut/May 1, 2018 /1 Comment

Germany’s greatest innovations are found not on the autobahn, but on the country’s fields and farms: self-driving high-tech tractors, milking robots, and feeding machines are already standard equipment for many farmers. Smart Farming is the future of agriculture.

The AI’s Guide to the Galaxy: We Need a Debate on the Subject of Self-Learning Algorithms

Christine Frohn and Liberales Institut/May 1, 2018 /Leave a comment

AI and robotics are termed “disruptive technologies”, which sounds somewhat dangerous and fraught with risk. But according to the Fraunhofer Institute for Production Technology, disruptive technologies are simply “innovations which replace a successful, existing technology, product or service or oust it from the market”.

Thanks to Agriculture 4.0, Glyphosate Does Not Have to Be Banned

Steffen Hentrich and Liberales Institut/January 18, 2018 /Leave a comment

Proper application and Agriculture 4.0 will make it possible to balance the need to economically protect crops, on the one hand, while taking into account the needs of protecting health and the environment, on the other. This can be achieved without banning glyphosate.

Politics

The Problematic Diesel Driving Bans in Germany

Steffen Hentrich and Liberales Institut/October 16, 2017 /Leave a comment

The key to solving the ecological problems of transport lies in a policy that allows for technological innovation in a wide range of drive technologies and air-cleaning measures. Central planning and ideologically motivated activism, which reduce our prosperity, undermine technological know-how and threaten jobs, are clearly out of place.

The Constitutional Ban on Segregation for Private Schools in Germany

Christine Vrohn and Liberales Institut/October 16, 2017October 16, 2017 /Leave a comment

The German Constitution guarantees freedom for private schools – comparable to Article 14 (3) of the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights. Especially for private schools, however, there is an important rule to be observed – the ban on segregation (the so called “Sonderungsverbot”).

Policy Papers

Board Remuneration Policy Review

Foluso Tade and Liberales Institut/June 29, 2017June 29, 2017 /Leave a comment

Board remuneration regulation is essentially a two stage issue. Firstly, there should be transparency concerning the remuneration packages of executive and non-executive board member and directors. And secondly, shareholders should have a level of control over the process of board remuneration determination.

What to Do About Fake News?

Annett Witte and Liberales Institut/June 29, 2017August 7, 2017 /Leave a comment

People cannot always decide for themselves whether a message is false or distorted. No one is solely in possession of the final truth. However, getting the facts straight and actively pursuing “counter speech” is a task not only for the media but also for civil society and each individual user.
