This paper examines the extents and determinants of earned income inequalities in the German Democratic Republic and the ‘former’ Federal Republic of Germany. In both systems income differences can be distinguished on the basis of individual and structural inequalities as well as according to organizational and economic structures. Nevertheless, different theoretical explanations must be used, in particular ...

The majority of the existing data provide, at a minimum, basic information on attendance ...

We estimate a structural life-cycle model of fertility and female labour supply and use it to evaluate the effects of a number of key family policy measures based on data for Germany. Parental leave benefits, child benefits and subsidized childcare are found to have substantial fertility effects. Without these measures, completed fertility is estimated to be lower by 6%, 7%, and 10%, respectively. ...
