This paper illustrates how different assumptions about household portfolio behavior influence estimates of the amount of individual income tax revenue that would be collected if the interest tax exemption for state and local government bonds was repealed or scaled back. Using data from the 2004 Survey of Consumer Finances, we estimate that federal income tax revenues would rise by $14.0 billion if current bondholders purchased taxable bonds, $8.9 billion if corporate stock replaced tax-exempt bonds in household portfolios, and $8.2 billion if they distributed their tax-exempt bond holdings across their other portfolio assets in proportion to their current portfolio shares. ; National Science Foundation (U.S.)

The methods for healthcare reform are strikingly underdeveloped, with much reliance on political power. A methodology that combined methods from sources such as clinical trials, experience-based wisdom, and improvement science could be among the aims of the upcoming work in the USA on comparative effectiveness and on the agenda of the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Those working in quality improvement have an unusual opportunity to generate substantial input into these processes through professional organisations such as the Academy for Healthcare Improvement and dominant leadership organisations such as the Institute for Healthcare Improvement.

"Neoclassical economic theory and its apparatus of methodological individualism, subjectivism and marginalism is the dominant paradigm within the field of economic science. Nevertheless the research program of Piero Sraffa and the neo-Ricardian school has shown that neoclassical theory is internally inconsistent and faced with serious problems with respect to its empirical relevance as a concrete and well investigated example for empirical observation, I present neoclassical cost theory, the fundament of standard neoclassical supply function. The text discusses three historical debates initiated by the neo-Ricardian school against neoclassical economics and shows the importance of these results for critical economic approaches."

This article investigates the role of expert knowledge in integration policy-making in the case of Sweden and Denmark. The two countries have developed very different integration policies and therefore provide an interesting comparison of the research-policy nexus. It is argued that social scientists play a role in the construction of policy narratives, but that their role can be very different. In Sweden, social scientists have been influential in agenda-setting and conceptual rethinking of immigrant integration policies. In Denmark social science research has been utilised in a more selective 'pick-and-choose' manner to legitimate government policies. Adapted from the source document.

Die privatwirtschaftliche Verschuldung wird im Allgemeinen den normalen ökonomischen Handlungsstrategien zugeordnet. Verschuldung liegt zunächst dann vor, wenn Produkte oder Dienstleistungen in Anspruch genommen werden, ohne einen unmittelbaren finanziellen Ausgleich zu leisten. [...] Richtet sich der Blick auf die junge Generation, ist häufig bereits mit dem Zustand der Verschuldung ein defizitäres ökonomisches Handeln verbunden. Im Gegensatz zu den Erwachsenen mittleren Alters entstehen die Schulden bei Jugendlichen und jungen Erwachsenen in der Mehrheit aufgrund von konsumorientierten Motiven. [...] Der vorliegende Beitrag fokussiert zunächst den Bereich der kognitiven Ebene. Es gilt zu prüfen, welche Vorstellungen junge Menschen zu privatwirtschaftlichen Prozessen entwickeln. Diese sollen mit Hilfe von Wissensnetzwerken (Concept Maps) visualisiert werden. Aus der inhaltlichen und strukturellen Analyse der gewonnenen Concept Maps soll dann eine Referenzstruktur entwickelt werden, die in Folgestudien als Vergleichsmaß eingesetzt werden kann. Dies erfordert eine hinreichende inhaltliche Übereinstimmung der Probandennetzwerke. Im Folgenden wird das Instrument des Concept Mapping vorgestellt, bevor im Anschluss die Ergebnisse zur Pilotstudie unter Studierenden der Wirtschaftspädagogik (Bachelor of Science) an der Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz präsentiert werden.

This paper investigates the effects of economic policy on regional specialization of China¡¯s high-tech industries for the period 1996 to 2005. Results indicate that the average level of regional specialization increases over years. Moreover, high-tech industry sector is highly localized in coastal regions. Using a dynamic panel data approach, we find that the implementation of high technology oriented export policy and subsidies for science and high technology activities encourage regional specialization, whereas local government¡¯s protections for local high-tech enterprises impede it. The empirical study also confirms the important role of high-skilled labor in determining regional specialization.
