Abstract. This paper proposes a model that can be implemented to estimate the willingness to pay for distributive justice, defined as distribu-tion according to desert. We derive a formula that...
Analyzing configuration systems with description logics: A case study (1997)
Ralf Möller, Ralf Moller, Carsten Schröder, Carsten Schroder, Carsten Lutz, Carsten Lutz
In this contribution we argue that the methods of formal knowledge representation, especially description logics, first, are valuable tools for analyzing existing configuration systems and open...
A Partial Logical Reconstruction of PLAKON/KONWERK (1996)
Carsten Schröder, Ralf Möller, Carsten Lutz
this paper, it is obvious that reasoning would be incomplete if the TAX module was not loaded into the Konwerk system. Currently, it is still not clear whether the inference services of Bhibs
Combining Spatial and Terminological Reasoning (1994)
Volker Haarslev, Ralf Möller, Carsten Schröder
The paper presents a method for terminological reasoning about spatial objects on the basis of a KL-ONE-like framework (LOOM). We apply this method to the domain of deductive geographic information...

Family-Type Subsistence Incomes
Christos Koulovatianos, Carsten Schröder, Ulrich Schmidt
Different family types may have a fixed flow of consumption costs, related to subsistence needs. We use a survey method in order to identify and estimate such a fixed component of spending for...
Arbeitslosengeld II: Arbeitsanreize und Verteilungsgerechtigkeit
Christos Koulovatianos, Ulrich Schmidt, Carsten Schröder
Um die Arbeitsanreize und die Verteilungsgerechtigkeit des Arbeitslosengeldes II (ALG II) zu analysieren, ist eine Quantifizierung des Arbeitsleides und des Wertes der Haushaltsproduktion in...
Equivalence scales reconsidered – an empirical investigation
Bönke, Timm, Schröder, Carsten
Income-expenditure surveys typically provide incomes on the household level. As households can differ in size and needs, a reliable assessment of inequality in living standards, therefore,...
Erhöht die Riester-Förderung die Sparneigung von Geringverdienern?
Corneo, Giacomo G., Keese, Matthias, Schröder, Carsten
Die Riester-Förderung soll dazu beitragen, dass häufiger und mehr für die Altersvorsorge gespart wird. Der Einfluss der Riester-Förderung auf die Sparneigung von Haushalten mit niedrigem...
Incomes and inequality in the long run: the case of German elderly
Bönke, Timm, Schröder, Carsten, Schulte, Katharina
We employ German Sample Survey Income data to examine income inequality and the financial situation of elderly citizens for the period from 1978 to 2003, focussing on differences between retired and...
Properties of Equivalence Scales in Different Countries
Christos Koulovatianos, Carsten Schröder, Ulrich Schmidt
Recent studies in high-income industrialized countries have shown that equivalence scales are income-dependent. We investigate whether this dependence also holds in poorer, services oriented...
Non-Market Time and Household Well-Being
Christos Koulovatianos, Carsten Schröder, Ulrich Schmidt
A distinguishing feature among households is whether adult members work or not, since the employment status a?ects a household’s available time for home activities. Using a survey method in two...
Non-Market Household Time and the cost of Children
Christos Koulovatianos, Carsten Schröder, Ulrich Schmidt
A distinguishing feature among households is whether adult members work or not, since the occupational status of adults affects their available time for home activities. Using a survey method in two...

Since 2002 the German government has promoted private retirement saving plans by means of special subsidies and tax incentives (Riester scheme). This policy mainly targets low-income households....
Timm Bönke, Frank Neher, Carsten Schröder
For a representative sample of German taxpayers, atypical slopes of Engel curves imply fis-cal incomes to be a biased measure of taxpayers’ abilities to consume. Yet, we show that, in general, the...
Equivalence scales reconsidered – an empirical investigation
Households can differ in size and needs. A reliable assessment of inequality in living standards, therefore, necessitates the conversion of the original heterogeneous into an artificial...
Confronting the Robinson Crusoe paradigm with household-size heterogeneity
Christos Koulovatianos, Carsten Schröder, Ulrich Schmidt
Modern macroeconomics empirically addresses economy-wide incentives behind economic actions by using insights from the way a single representative household would behave. This analytical approach...
The German spatial poverty divide: poorly endowed or bad luck?
We study inter-temporal changes in poverty for Germany from year 1978 to 2003, and we employ the bootstrap method to test for statistical significance of results. All results are decomposed by...

Atypische Engelkurven?Verläufe zeigen, dass die in der Faktisch Anonymisierten Lohn? und Einkommensteuerstatistik 1998 (FAST) verzeichneten steuerrechtlich definierten Einkommensaggregate ein...
Boysen, Ole, Schröder, Carsten
In this article, we simulate the concentration process within the German dairy sector employing a sector?wide optimization model. As a result, we get cost minimizing structures of the dairy sector...

Corneo, Giacomo, Keese, Matthias, Schröder, Carsten
In 2001 the German government started to promote the development of private pensions by means of special saving subsidies and tax incentives (Riester-scheme). That policy especially targets...

Welfare-Dependent Household Economies of Scale: Further Evidence
Koulovatianos, Christos, Schröder, Carsten, Schmidt, Ulrich
We use a survey method designed to capture whether the consumption sharing ability of households varies systematically at different levels of well being. Evidence from Cyprus reconfirms our previous...
