Book Description

English summary: This Festschrift in honour of Joachim Jens Hesse, one of the most important and influential political and administrative scientists of his generation, is a compilation of studies on the prevailing and still precarious relationship between the Nation State and the European Union by an illustrious group of scholars of law, economics and social sciences. They discuss this subject systematically in twenty analytical studies and outline ways out of the multiple domestic and European crises occurring at the moment. The book is divided into four chapters (historical approaches; crises and their consequences; institutions, state officials and policies; and courses of action). Most of the publications in the book were first presented at a colloquium entitled Nation State and the European Union held in honour of Joachim Jens Hesse at Schloss Leopoldskron in Salzburg. German description: Diese Festschrift fur Joachim Jens Hesse, einen der wichtigsten und einflussreichsten Staats-, Politik- und Verwaltungswissenschaftler seiner Generation, fuhrt einen illustren Kreis von Rechts-, Wirtschafts- und Sozialwissenschaftlern zusammen.

In vier Kapiteln (Historische Zugange, Krisenerscheinungen und deren Folgen, Einrichtungen, Akteure, Politiken und Handlungsoptionen) bereiten 20 Beitrage das Themenfeld systematisch auf und skizzieren Auswege aus den inzwischen multiplen binnenstaatlichen wie europaischen Krisen. Die meisten Beitrage wurden erstmals im Rahmen eines Kolloquiums zu Ehren Joachim Jens Hesses vorgestellt, das auf Schloss Leopoldskron (Salzburg) unter dem Titel Nationalstaat und Europaische Union stand.

Author Bio

Professor Sir Tony Atkinson was an academic economist particularly concerned with issues of social justice and the design of public policy. He has been writing on economics since the 1960s, when his first book was on poverty in Britain and his second on the unequal distribution of wealth. Together with Joe Stiglitz he wrote Lectures in Public Economics.

His late work focused on top incomes, contributing to the World Wealth and Income Database, and on monitoring rising inequality across the world.

The Faculty of Economics is deeply saddened by the death of Tony Atkinson, who passed away on 1 January 2017 at the age of 72. He began his academic career as Fellow of St. John's College, 1967-71, and returned to Cambridge in 1992 as Professor of Political Economy and Fellow of Churchill College before he became Warden of Nuffield College, University of Oxford, in 1994.

Tony Atkinson pioneered the study of the economics of income distribution and the measurement of poverty and inequality. The Atkinson index is named after him. Throughout his life, he was actively engaged with policymaking and with finding solutions to alleviate poverty and inequality.
