Busines history and political economy of occupational pensions in Germany, 1948-1982

本项目使用八个公司案例研究和六个立法程序来检查1948年至1982年职业养老金的经济和公司历史维度。这是我们第一次对这一研究主题使用比较案例研究的方法，也是我们第一次在大型企业之外考察中型企业。关于立法程序的政治经济学，我们研究了社会和-第一次-税收政策法律与职业养老金的相关性。此外，我们使用扩展的否决参与者方法来分析立法程序和企业内部关于职业养老金的谈判，以便该项目将政治科学的既定方法转移到经济和商业历史上。提出延期请求是为了补偿与大流行病有关的项目延误。

This project uses eight corporate case studies and six legislative processes to examine the economic and corporate historical dimension of occupational pensions for the years 1948 to 1982. For the first time, we use a comparative case study approach for this research topic, and for the first time we examine medium-sized firms in addition to large firms. With respect to the political economy of legislative processes, we examine social and - for the first time - tax policy laws with respect to their relevance for occupational pensions. Furthermore, we use an extended veto player approach for the analysis of both legislative processes and intra-firm negotiations on occupational pensions, so that the project transfers established methods of political science to economic and business history. The extension request is made to compensate for pandemic-related project delays.
