Scrapheap or Indian Summer
Die Belegschaften vieler Industrieländer altern immer schneller. Dieser Trend fördert Bedenken, dass die Innovationskraft von Volkswirtschaften zukünftig stark zurückgehen könnte. Katharina Frosch hat sich zu dieser Frage die bestehende Fachliteratur sowie frühere Studien zur Wechselwirkung zwischen Belegschaftsalter und Innovation angesehen und schlussfolgert: Um die Auswirkungen des Alters auf Innovationen verlässlich zu beurteilen, müssen sowohl Praktiker als auch Wissenschaftler eine Reihe von Fallstricken vermeiden.

Working Mums
"Children under the age of three are best looked after by their mothers". This conviction is still shared by most Germans, whereas in France external childcare is a fully accepted alternative, even for infants. This is one result of a comparative study by Anne Salles, Clémentine Rossier, and Sara Brachet that explores the long-term effects of family policies on fertility. Low fertility is a common feature in all European countries. The fertility rate is particularly low in German-speaking countries, whereas in the Nordic countries and in France birth rates are comparatively higher.
