The document discusses the Lisbon Strategy for Growth and Jobs and its evolution over time. It outlines the key priorities and targets set in 2005, including 3% R&D spending and 70% employment rate. Concrete actions were agreed in 2006 in four priority areas: R&D and innovation, business environment, skills, and energy policy. By 2007 progress was being made but more was needed in some countries. The strategy would be reinforced with a new cycle of country-specific recommendations and integrated guidelines to ensure implementation of outstanding reforms. In December 2007, the Commission will deliver an integrated package consisting of strategic reports, country assessments, recommendations and guidelines to guide the 2008-2010 period.

The 2018 OECD Budget Review of Greece had three main objectives: 1) to present Greece's budgetary reforms over the last decade, 2) to receive feedback from peer countries on Greece's new budget framework, and 3) to identify priority areas for further reforms. The review found that Greece had made remarkable progress in aligning its budgetary framework with most OECD recommendations, particularly in multi-annual fiscal planning, budget monitoring, and the creation of new fiscal institutions. However, it identified three key priority areas for further reform: prioritizing and improving the effectiveness of government spending, ensuring a unified budget, and maintaining fiscal discipline going forward.

Medium-Term Expenditure Frameworks and IFIs - Jon Blöndal, OECDOECD Governance
The document discusses medium-term expenditure frameworks (MTEFs) and their advantages, including providing greater certainty in planning, facilitating top-down budgeting, and making budget gimmickry harder. It defines MTEFs as identifying resource availability and current spending needs over a multi-year period, usually 3-5 years, to determine future resource allocations. Baseline projections are also discussed as estimating spending if current policies remain unchanged. However, the document notes that few countries implement MTEFs well due to issues like lack of integration into the budget process and lack of robust costings and up-to-date baselines.

A European Growth Policy for Twenty-seven Countries - Prospects and Problems ...gogrowth
The document discusses the challenges facing the European Union in developing common growth policies for its 27 member states in the modern knowledge economy. It argues that traditional industrial policies focused on subsidies and grants will not be effective, and that modern growth policies require more collaboration between firms, universities, and government. However, establishing collaboration is difficult because these organizations have different social networks and values as a result of their different roles. The document proposes that policies are needed at the EU, national, and regional levels to help build "social capital" or trust between these organizations in order to support innovation systems and regional clusters that can drive growth in the knowledge economy.
A European Growth Policy for Twenty-seven Countries - Prospects and Problems ...gogrowth

It argues that traditional industrial policies focused on subsidies and grants will not be effective, and that modern growth policies require more collaboration between firms, governments, and universities. However, establishing these collaboration policies is difficult because the different organizations have different social capital in the form of norms, networks, and values. The document proposes measures at the EU, national, and regional levels to help overcome these obstacles and better coordinate growth policies across levels of governance for the knowledge economy.
The document describes four regions of Ohio: the Lake Plain region along Lake Erie which has clay soil and parks by the lake; the Till Plains with open fields and animals that like popcorn; the Appalachian Plateau where more people live and work in industries on poor soil but with rich deposits discovered; and the Blue Grass region with strange animals, butterflies, rich soil and songbirds.
The document discusses the importance of communication infrastructure and technology for economic growth and innovation. It argues that each new phase of communication technology, from paper to the internet, has enabled new scientific and technological advances by spreading information more widely. It advocates for continued investment and policy support to expand high-speed internet access and promote an "internet of things", open innovation, and the free flow of knowledge, as outlined in the European Union's Lisbon Strategy. The overall message is that transitioning to IPv6 is essential to enable the next generation of internet-enabled economic growth and innovation.

Gabby Douglas is an American gymnast who won two gold medals at the 2012 Olympics in London. She was the first African American woman to become Olympic champion in gymnastics. Douglas began gymnastics at a young age inspired by her older sister and had success winning various state and national championships as a junior and senior gymnast.
The document discusses Ohio's five geographic regions - the Lake Plain, Till Plain, Appalachian Plateau, Bluegrass, and describes some key features of each. The Lake Plain region contains Cleveland and Toledo harbors, and peach farms. The Till Plain focuses on corn harvesting in Dayton and Columbus, and cattle raising. The Appalachian Plateau is home to white-tailed deer and Hocking Hills, and contains coal resources. The smallest Bluegrass region grows tobacco and observes bird migrations near old barns.
The document provides an assessment of the Lisbon Strategy which aimed to make the EU the most competitive knowledge-based economy by 2010. It finds that while the goals of increasing growth and employment were appropriate, the strategy suffered from a lack of commitment, ownership and effective benchmarking and incentives among member states. It argues that advancing the goals will require strengthening the rationale around issues like the environment and social cohesion. It also calls for adjusting policy instruments to place more emphasis on education and financial markets to complement existing focuses on labor and product markets.
David Ruffin grew up singing gospel in Detroit and went on to have a successful career as a singer, first with several groups and then achieving great success with The Temptations, where he had many #1 hit songs. He toured with other artists but died of a drug overdose in 1991 in Philadelphia at the age of 50.
The document describes 5 regions of Ohio: 1) The Lake Plain Region along Lake Erie with good soil for corn and location of Cedar Point and peach farms. 2) The Till Plains with rich soil left by glaciers, important for farming including cows and wheat. 3) The Appalachian Plateau, the largest region partially covered by glaciers containing forests of cedar and beech important for wildlife. 4) The Blue Grass Region, the smallest resembling Kentucky with bluegrass fields and no major cities.
The document describes four regions in Ohio and their key characteristics. The Lake Plains region has clay soil good for farming crops like corn, tomatoes, wheat, and fruit. The Till Plains is very flat with rich, fertile black soil good for wheat. The Appalachian Plateau has farmers and is important for animals, and contains resources like coal, iron, and clay. The Bluegrass region is good for seeing wildlife like turkeys and songbirds, with tobacco as the main crop.
Mergers and Acquisitions Endgame: European Winners?gogrowth
1) The document analyzes data on over 660,000 public and private companies globally to understand industry consolidation patterns and the stage of development for different industries and geographic regions.
2) It finds that European industries lag behind those in the US and Asia in consolidating and moving into more advanced phases, leaving a gap that negatively impacts wealth generation.
3) In particular, Germany is shown to suffer from a lack of "young industries" moving beyond early development phases, while Singapore has relatively more industries in advanced stages.
This document discusses the philosophy of Karl Popper and his contributions to epistemology. It outlines Popper's rejection of inductivism and verificationism, and his proposal of falsificationism as a criterion for scientific theories. Popper argued that a theory is scientific if it can be falsified, not verified, by empirical tests. The document also reviews criticisms of Popper's views from thinkers like Kuhn, Feyerabend and others.

Fiscal rules and independent fiscal councilsADEMU_Project
This document discusses improving fiscal rules and independent fiscal councils. It proposes:
1. Making fiscal rules more symmetric by compensating for past deviations from targets and updating recommendations based on economic changes.
2. Strengthening enforcement of fiscal rules by expanding conditionality of EU funds to all member states.
3. Encouraging economic resilience by linking fiscal and macroeconomic policies.
4. Simplifying complex fiscal rules through independent judgment, with escape clauses triggered by independent institutions based on economic circumstances.
The document also reviews the proliferation of independent fiscal councils and rules globally and their empirical impact on fiscal outcomes. Design features are important to councils' effectiveness.
This document summarizes a speech given by Simon Mordue on the achievements and challenges of the European Commission's new approach to public administration reform over the past year. Some key achievements highlighted include establishing six core areas to define public administration reform, conducting baseline assessments of countries, including recommendations in enlargement reports, and establishing regular policy dialogue meetings. However, challenges still exist around civil service management, lack of data and indicators, weak policy dialogue, linking budget support to reform priorities, and ensuring comprehensive public financial management reform programs. Overall commitment from ministers will be needed to fully implement reform strategies and recommendations.

Similar to Updating Lisbon - Commission Perspective (20)
1. The document proposes using a new "time distance" concept and statistical measure called S-time-distance to provide additional insights for comparing time series data and tracking progress towards targets.
2. S-time-distance adds a time dimension to comparisons by calculating the number of years a value is ahead or behind the hypothetical path needed to meet a target.
3. This provides a more dynamic framework than static measures alone and can give new perspectives for issues like economic growth, efficiency, inequality, and policy monitoring.
This document discusses the challenges facing the EU in attracting and retaining high-quality researchers and scientists. It notes that while science is becoming more globalized, the economic benefits of research are measured locally. It also discusses Germany's inconsistent policies around restricting immigration of high-qualified researchers, and argues that facilitating the immigration of researchers should be a priority for the EU. Finally, it examines the mobility of researchers as dependent on both individual desires and circumstances as well as policies in home and destination countries.
