Abstract

Am 24. und 25. März 2006 fand an der Akademie für Politische Bildung Tutzing unter der Leitung von Dr. Wolfgang Quaisser und Karl-Heinz Willenborg die Tagung "Arbeitslosigkeit ohne Ende? Die Arbeitsmarkt- und Beschäftigungspolitik der neuen Bundesregierung in der Kontroverse" statt. Im Zentrum der Tagung standen die im Koalitionsvertrag vorgeschlagenen arbeitsmarktpolitischen Maßnahmen. Als Mitglied der Bundesregierung erläutert Franz Müntefering, Bundesminister für Arbeit und Soziales, die Arbeitsmarkt- und Beschäftigungspolitik der Bundesregierung. Hermann Otto Solms, FDP-Bundestagsfraktion, Heike Maria Kunstmann, Gesamtmetall, und Wilhelm Adamy, DGB, nehmen als Vertreter der Opposition, der Arbeitgeber und der Arbeitnehmer Stellung dazu. Joachim Möller, Universität Regensburg, legt seine Bewertung aus wissenschaftlicher Sicht dar. Im Anschluss daran prüfen Peter Hampe, TU Dresden, und Ulrich Walwei, Michael Feil und Lisa Tillmann, IAB, Nürnberg, ob aus der deutschen Wirtschafts- und Arbeitsmarktpolitik seit der Wiedervereinigung Lehren für Deutschland im Kampf gegen die Arbeitslosigkeit gezogen werden können. Zum Abschluss berichten Michael Knogler, Osteuropa-Institut München, und Wolfgang Quaisser, Politische Akademie Tutzing, Wolfgang Ochel, ifo Institut, und Henry Werner, dänische Botschaft, Berlin, über die Arbeitsmarktpolitik der neuen EU-Mitgliedstaaten, der USA sowie Dänemarks.
