Abstract

Zusammenfassung Das dynamische Gleichgewicht, das sich in der deutschen Volkswirtschaft herausgebildet hat, ist im produktiven Bereich überwiegend durch eine Annäherung der neuen Bundesländer an die alten Bundesländer charakterisiert. Im Osten entwickelt sich die Produktivität besonders dynamisch und fast ausschließlich aufgrund des technischen Fortschritts. Dieser Prozess könnte durch Anreize für unternehmerische Investitionen beschleunigt werden. Angesichts der Größenordnung zusätzlich zu investierender Betrage - es fehlen ca. 45 Mrd. Euro, um die Kapitalausstattung anzugleichen - dürfte der Staat sehr schnell überfordert sein, wollte man ihm allein diese Aufgabe zuweisen.
