Abstract

Why is Europe's employment rate almost 10 percent lower than that of the United States? This "jobs gap" has typically been blamed on the rigidity of European labor markets. But in Services and Employment, an international group of leading labor economists suggests quite a different explanation. Drawing on the findings of a two-year research project that examined data from France, Germany, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, and the United States, these economists argue that Europe's 25 million "missing" jobs can be attributed almost entirely to its relative lack of service jobs. The jobs gap is actually a services gap. But, Services and Employment asks, why does the United States consume services at such a greater rate than Europe? Services and Employment is the first systematic and comprehensive international comparison on the subject. Mary Gregory, Wiemer Salverda, Ronald Schettkat, and their fellow contributors consider the possible role played by differences in how certain services--particularly health care and education--are provided in Europe and the United States. They examine arguments that Americans consume more services because of their higher incomes and that American households outsource more domestic work. The contributors also ask whether differences between U.S. and European service sectors encapsulate fundamental trans-Atlantic differences in lifestyle choices. In addition to the editors, the contributors include Victor Fuchs, William Baumol, Giovanni Russo, Adriaan Kalwij, Stephen Machin, Andrew Glyn, Joachin Möller, John Schmitt, Michel Sollogoub, Robert Gordon, and Richard Freeman.

Abstract

En 1861, la guerre civile éclate aux États-Unis. La jeune nation américaine, puissance en devenir, ne parvient plus à contenir les antago-nismes qui opposent les États du Nord, industriels, antiesclavagistes et fidèles à l’autorité fédérale, à ceux du Sud, agricoles, esclavagistes et attachés aux droits des États.L’ouvrage retrace l’histoire de ces quatre années de luttes fratricides et meurtrières (620 000 morts) au terme desquelles les Nordistes rétablissent l’Union et donnent au pacte fédéral son caractère indestructible. Il fait la synthèse des débats historiographiques les plus récents sur cet épisode tragique de l’histoire des États-Unis, gravé dans la mémoire collective des Américains.

Abstract

Faire l’histoire des États-Unis, le projet permet de lever un premier préjugé, celui d’un pays si «jeune» qu’il n’aurait pas d’histoire. Du jour de l’indépendance à la guerre de Sécession, de la conquête de l’Ouest à celle de la Lune, de la crise de 1929 aux attentats du 11 septembre 2001, cet ouvrage raconte le roman vrai de l’Amérique. Au-delà d’un simple récit chronologique, François Durpaire montre combien les États-Unis résistent à toute compréhension simpliste. Il nous invite à lire l’histoire de ce pays comme celle d’un dialogue ininterrompu entre l’unité et la diversité, qui sont les deux valeurs inscrites dans la devise originelle des États-Unis d’Amérique : e pluribus unum – de plusieurs, un.

Abstract

[1st ed.] This book provides a critical introduction to the history and current meaning of the United States' Constitution. It is organised around two themes: Firstly, the US Constitution is old, short, and difficult to amend. These characteristics have made constitutional 'interpretation', especially by the US Supreme Court, the primary mechanism for adapting the Constitution to ever-changing reality. Secondly, the Constitution creates a structure of political opportunities that allows political actors, including political parties, to pursue the preferred policy goals even to the point of altering the very structure of politics. Politics, that is, often gives meaning to the Constitution. Deploying these themes to examine the structure of the national government, federalism, judicial review, and individual rights, the book provides basic information about, and deeper insights into, the way the US constitutional system has developed and what it means today.
