Preparing the ECB for Enlargement

By: Richard E. Baldwin,Francesco Giavazzi,Erik Berglöf,Mika Widgren

Established in 1983, the Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR) is the only European economics research network, linking over 550 academic researchers based in more than 20 countries. CEPR research addresses key European and global policy issues, ranging from global financial crises to international trade policy; from the economic transformation of Central and Eastern Europe to European competition policy. We are the market leaders for research on all aspects of European integration. CEPR research has consistently influenced policy by orienting researchers to address policy-relevant questions, and by encouraging key decision-makers to focus on the results of this research when discussing and formulating policy. The success of this approach has become increasingly apparent in recent years, as both practical examples and explicit acknowledgements from politicians, officials and journalists can testify. The Policy Paper series was launched by CEPR in 1999 to provide a forum for the analysis of important policy issues by leading researchers. The series aims to identify key policy issues; apply the best and most up-to-date research to help understand these issues; and to explore the implications of this research for the design and conduct of policy.

Organic Design in Twentieth-Century Nordic Architecture

By: Erik Champion

Organic Design in Twentieth-Century Nordic Architecture presents a communicable and useful definition of organic architecture that reaches beyond constraints. The book focuses on the works and writings of architects in Nordic countries, such as Sigurd Lewerentz, Jørn Utzon, Sverre Fehn and the Aaltos (Aino, Elissa and Alvar), among others. It is structured around the ideas of organic design principles that influenced them and allowed their work to evolve from one building to another. Erik Champion argues organic architecture can be viewed as a concerted attempt to thematically unify the built environment through the allegorical expression of ongoing interaction between designer, architectural brief and building-as-process. With over 140 black and white images, this book is an intriguing read for architecture students and professionals alike.

Capitalist Workingman's Paradises Revisited

Corporate Welfare Work in Great Britain, the USA, Germany and France in the Golden Age of Capitalism, 1880-1930

By: Erik de Gier

This book offers an in-depth exploration of the international phenomenon of enlightened paternalist capitalism and social engineering in the golden age of capitalism in the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, and France. Erik de Gier shows how utopian socialist, religious, and craft-based ideas influenced the welfare work and educations programmes offered by paternalistic businesses in different ways from nation to nation, looking closely at sites like the Pullman community in Chicago and Port Sunlight in the UK. De Gier brings the book fully up to date with a brief comparison to contemporary welfare capitalism in our highly flexible working world.

Documentary Industrial Novels and the Sociology of Work in the Twentieth Century

The United States, the Soviet Union and Western Europe

By: ERIK DE. GIER

In several European countries, the United States, and the Soviet Union, remarkable industrial novels based on empirical observations were written between 1900 and 1970. With two successive world wars and the rise of communism and fascism, this was an exceptionally turbulent time in the history of industrial capitalism as Taylorism and Fordism sought to increase production and consumption. This social landscape shaped modernist industrial novels. Key themes in these novels were class conflict, bad working conditions, worker alienation, changing workmen and employee cultures, urbanization, and worker migration. The primary goal was to document and publicize the real developments of working conditions in factories and offices, often aiming to influence both company welfare work and state social policies. This book focuses on the modernist industrial novel as written in five large industrial nations: the United States before WWII, the Stalinist Soviet Union, Weimar Germany, post-WWII Italy, and France.
