    Description:
    In this paper we seek to explain why bank performance has varied so dramatically during and after the financial crisis on Europe’s periphery, both across states and within them. Our dependent variable is bank performance defined in terms of credit provision and banks’ contribution to financial stability. Our independent variable is the particular mix at play between political/social purpose and what we call ‘market authority’ - the importance of market incentives, signals and pricing within a particular financial ‘ecosystem’. “Economic nationalism” or the politicization of local and regional banks has often imbued banks with social and political goals, serving the economy at different levels, and is one major source of political/social purpose. But the latter must be constrained by market authority. We argue that for optimal bank performance, economic nationalism or political/social purpose must be constrained by market authority, otherwise a political logic (e.g. cronyism, a lack of professionalism, and deficits in banking expertise) can easily subvert or distort credit provision and undermine financial stability.

    Description:
    In this study, we merge the literature on homeownership regimes, which focuses to a lesser extent on the consequences of wealth and social inequality, with the literature on wealth and social stratification, which overlooks the importance of homeownership regimes in contributing to those inequalities. Within this framework, we examine to what extent homeownership regimes shape class inequality in homeownership among young adults and the mortgage debt burden that usually accompanies it. We first develop an updated typology of homeownership regimes that incorporates the role of the family via intergenerational wealth transfers (IWT) such as gifts and housing assets. This dimension was theoretically underdeveloped and empirically absent from previous homeownership typologies. Second, we employ this typology to investigate class-based gaps in homeownership and mortgage debt burden within and between homeownership regimes. This is done by pooling data for a total of 20 countries from two sources: the European Union Statistics on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC) 2013–2014 (EuroStat) for EU countries, and the Household Expenditure Survey 2012–2013 (CBS) for Israel. Using multivariate modeling, we find that homeownership regimes in which IWT in the form of financial support is common practice increase class inequality in homeownership compared to regimes in which IWT of assets is common practice. Contrary to the literature suggesting that liberal mortgage markets advance inclusion, it appears that in the homeownership regime characterized by the most liberal housing finance system (which includes Northern European countries and the Netherlands), class inequality in mortgaged homeownership is the widest but class inequality in mortgage debt burden is the narrowest. Homeownership regimes characterized by IWT of assets (which include Southern and Central Eastern European countries) reveal the opposite patterns. We discuss the implications of our findings for the literature on homeownership regimes and wealth inequality, with a specific focus on young adults.

    Description:
    European states have a long history of banking sector nationalism. Control over credit allocation is believed to contribute to economic development and competitiveness goals, insulation from external economic shocks, and control over monetary policy. This paper explains the potentially dramatic loss in domestic control over banks created by the European Banking Union (EBU). First, we argue that ongoing liberalization in the global and European economies has made banking sector protectionism both more costly and conflictual. Second, we contend that because many of the biggest banks have internationalized their operations, they now prefer centralized European regulation and supervision. Third, supporting a modified neofunctionalist argument, we find that behind the sometimes frenetic intergovernmental bargaining in 2012-14, it is primarily the European Commission and the European Central Bank that have pushed Banking Union ahead. Supranational institutions have argued, with some success, that they have unique capacity to solve collective action and prisoners’ dilemma problems. Contrary to accepted wisdom, Germany has not set or limited the Banking Union agenda to a great extent, in part because of its own internal divisions. Moreover, the Commission and the ECB have managed at critical junctures to isolate Germany to secure the country’s assent to controversial measures.

    Description:
    'Nicht erst seit Freud und der psychoanalytischen Schule geht die Wissenschaft davon aus, daß gesellschaftliche Liberalisierungsprozesse sich immer auch in Form einer Lockerung der Moralstrukturen auswirken. Das Ausmaß sexueller Permissivität in der Bevölkerung eines Landes gilt als Indikator für Offenheit und Toleranz sowie bei Zeitreihenuntersuchungen als Maß sozialen Wandels. Mit dem vorliegenden Beitrag widmen wir uns diesem Konstrukt und betrachten es unter verschiedenen Gesichtspunkten: zum einen sollen methodisch - anhand der Überprüfung von Boden- und Deckeneffekten - Qualität und Adäquanz der häufig und interkulturell verwendeten Items zur Messung sexueller Permissivität analysiert werden. Dazu vergleichen wir sexuell permissive Einstellungen in Deutschland und Israel. Zum anderen replizieren wir das Vorgehen früherer, zumeist amerikanischer Studien auf diesem Gebiet und testen den diesbezüglichen Einfluß soziodemographischer Merkmale in den genannten Ländern. Darüber hinaus wenden wir uns der Frage eventueller systembedingter Unterschiede in den sexuellen Haltungen zu, indem wir die Antworten der Ostdeutschen und die der jüdischen Immigranten aus den Staaten der ehemaligen UdSSR nach Israel denen der westdeutschen und denen der übrigen israelischen Bevölkerung gegenüberstellen.' (Autorenreferat)
    'Even before the appearance of Freudian psychoanalysis, scientist have held that processes of societal liberalisation tend to contribute to a loosening of morals. The degree of sexual permissiveness in a society is often regarded as an indicator for openness and tolerance. In diachronic terms - from a temporal perspective - it is also taken as a measure of social change. The article investigates the construct of sexual permissiveness from different vantage points. From a methodological standpoint we examine bottom and ceiling effects and their consequences for the quality and adequacy of these indicators for comparative (cross-cultural) research. The substantive perspective is pursued in replicating other, mostly American studies in this area. The countries chosen are Germany and Israel. We examine the influence of socio-demographic variables in the two countries. In particular, we address the question of system-related differences in the attitudes towards sexuality and compare responses from Eastern Germans and Jewish immigrants from the former Soviet Republics to Israel with responses from Western Germans and the remaining Israeli population.'
