In this paper we introduce an application of the supply-side channel for fiscal policy to the basic New Keynesian model.We use a proportional tax rate instead of lump sum tax and introduce the distortions of a tax wedge.We derive a closed economy forward-looking model with government consumption and no capital. Households' labour supply decisions are endogenised.Monetary policy is conducted by a Taylor-type interest rate rule and fiscal policy follows a simple debt rule.We analyse the stability of the model when fiscal policy has both demand and supply-side effects and compare results with the standard case of only demand effects. We show that taking supply-side effects into account restricts the fiscal policy parameter range consistent with the dynamic stability of the economy.We also argue that allowing fiscal policy to affect both supply and demand results in more persistent inflation as well as output responses to shocks, than without the supply-side channel.We also discuss the different monetary and fiscal policy regimes and their implication on the stability of inflation and output.

Dealing with longer life expectancy and demographic deficit is currently a huge challenge for the social system of European member states. To face this challenge, it is necessary for legislators to develop a dedicated protection policy for the young people in a business relationship context and, at the same time, to redefine age limits policy especially in business relationship termination situation. The presented study focuses on the factuality of the « age » concept. Based on cultural history, confirmed by the legislator analysis of the physiological aging, « age » criterion is closely linked to general principles in E.U. legislation like, for example, the human dignity and the equal treatment. However, the « age » criterion still remains ambivalent which is underlined by the non-discrimination principle. This ambiguity is emphasized in business relationships which leads to the influence of the « age » in an ending working life situation. This intergenerational pact support, which influence the proceed of the pension liquidation, is currently experiencing a revival beyond E.U. member state boundaries. A converging point is achieved in old-age treatment which leads to new solidarity development schemes inside companies (like for example the company occupational scheme). An important objective is to promote the pursuance of a professional activity in order to retire later (increasing in the statutory retirement age, increment or reduce of the retirement pension, restriction of derogations, proscription of business relationship breaches if they are based on age, …) and to redefine the connection between age and business relationships (combined work and retirement, phased retirement, …). By this way, legislators promote a human longevity based age treatment in Europe ; L'allongement de la durée de la vie humaine et le déficit du rapport démographique constituent de véritables défis pour les systèmes sociaux des États membres. Pour y faire face, les législateurs doivent à la fois développer une politique de protection des plus jeunes dans le cadre des relations professionnelles, tout en revisitant les logiques des seuils d'âge notamment au regard de la fin de ces relations. Cette étude a vocation à s'interroger sur l'existence d'un concept de l'âge. Fort d'une histoire culturelle, confortée par une analyse du phénomène physiologique du vieillissement par le législateur, le critère de l'âge entretient des liens particuliers avec les principes généraux du droit de l'Union, tel que le principe de la dignité humaine et le principe de l'égalité de traitement. Malgré tout, le critère de l'âge conserve une ambivalence certaine, mise en exergue à travers le principe général du droit de l'Union de non-discrimination à raison de l'âge. Cette ambivalence se manifeste plus fortement encore à l'issue des relations professionnelles, posant ainsi la question de la place de l'âge à la fin de la vie active. Ce curseur au soutien du pacte intergénérationnel, conditionnant le bénéfice de la liquidation de la pension, connaît actuellement un renouveau, dépassant les frontières des États membres. Une convergence dans le traitement de la vieillesse se crée, tendant au développement de nouvelles solidarités dans le cadre de l'entreprise (régimes professionnels d'entreprise). Il s'agit en outre de favoriser la poursuite de l'activité à un âge élevé (relèvement de l'âge légal de la retraite, décote, surcote, encadrement des régimes dérogatoires, prohibition des ruptures de la relation de travail fondée sur l'âge…) et de repenser les rapports entre les relations de travail et l'âge (cumul emploi - retraite, retraite progressive…). Ce faisant, les législateurs promeuvent un traitement de l'âge qui s'inscrit dans la problématique générale de la longévité humaine en Europe

This report offers an analytical framework to help policymakers assess the challenges and opportunities of distributed ledger technology (DLT), which underpins blockchain and applications such as cryptoassets and initial coin offerings. The report examines the evolution and different types of the emergent technology, its existing and projected applications, and the regulatory and policy issues entailed. It highlights the risks and potential benefits of using DLT, especially for Asian markets, and sets out a functional and proportional approach to these issues.

AbstractThe legitimacy of policy making at the regional level, as with policy making at more conventional levels of government, depends on the quality of representation. Citizen appointments and voluntary committees bypass the expense of the electoral process, but lack value when restricted to token advisory roles in potential conflict with other, "financially articulate" interests. Experience shows that lay citizen representatives can make sound decisions on the technical issues that typify regional problems, when information is properly shared. Regional entities must demonstrate the will to establish their legitimacy.

Economic development—defined by growth of GNP per capita—among the poor countries of the world during the last 25 years has been higher than in almost any other period in mankind's history. Although this growth might have not been as high as that expected by some policy makers, the 1950-1975 period shows an overall improvement over the recent past. In spite of this apparent surge in growth, many policy makers and social scientists have shown disappointment and dismay at some characteristics of the recent increases in GNP (Morawetz, 1977).
