Zitat von Lars Felder: Hier wird nicht nur auf die Versicherungszeit abgezielt, sondern auch berücksichtigt, welche Tätigkeiten ausgeübt wurden und wie belastend diese körperlich waren.
Lars Felder denkt, dass bei der Rente nicht nur die Versicherungszeit zählen sollte, sondern auch berücksichtigt werden müsste, welche Tätigkeiten ausgeübt wurden und wie belastend diese waren. Jetzt im Interview: www.diw.de/de/diw_01.c....

Women's political representation matters: Evidence from school closures during the pandemic. Natalia Danzer, Sebastian Garcia-Torres, Max Steinhardt, Luca Stella. 13 Nov 2024 The notion that politicians’ identity, including their gender, can influence policy outcomes is supported by a growing body of empirical research. This column reports a study exploring the extent to which the share of women members in national governments during the Covid-19 pandemic shaped the policy responses. Higher female representation was associated with a lower likelihood of schools being closed – not because women politicians were less concerned about the spread of the virus but due to their heightened awareness of the costs of school closures, notably for working mothers with young children. The results indicate the potential benefits of more gender-balanced governments in shaping policies that affect the wellbeing, education, and economic prospects of children and families.

IZA under Armin Falk.... @simonjaeger.bsky.social departs. Maybe they should rename IZA into Nora-Szech-Institute and start rethinking their plans from there.
This is very bad for economics, not just in Germany. Simon Jaeger will step down as CEO of IZA and Armin Falk will take over??
#HiSciSky I'm a fresh econ PhD student in the Berlin School of Economics and the DIW Berlin, curious about all things related to social- and climate policy.
