The re-use of research data is an integral part of research practice in the social and economic sciences. To find relevant data, researchers need adequate search facilities. However, a comprehensive, thematic search for research data that is not limited to individual survey programs is difficult. Because individual survey programs use their own terminology to describe their data and the...
Die Nachnutzung von Forschungsdaten ist ein wichtiger Bestandteil der Forschungspraxis in den Sozial- und Wirtschaftswissenschaften. Um geeignete Daten zu finden, brauchen Forschende gut funktionierende Suchmöglichkeiten. Eine übergreifende inhaltliche Suche nach Forschungsdaten, die nicht auf einzelne Umfragen beschränkt ist, wird jedoch durch eine uneinheitliche oder fehlende semantische...

Minimum wages are increasingly discussed as an instrument against (in-work) poverty and income inequality in Europe. Just recently the German government opted for a substantial ad-hoc increase of the minimum-wage level to euro12 per hour mentioning poverty prevention as an explicit goal. We use the introduction of the federal minimum wage in Germany in 2015 to study its redistributive impact on disposable ...
