Zusammenfassung:	At its 2001 conference, the Financial Science Committee of the Association for Social Policy discussed the fiscal policy approaches to solving labor market problems. The conference proceedings contain three keynote speeches by Axel Börsch-Supan (University of Mannheim), Christian Keuschnigg (University of St. Gallen) and Bernd Raffelhüschen (University of Freiburg). Axel Börsch-Supan points out that, in addition to the much-discussed financial gap in the statutory pension insurance system, the ageing population requires action in two other policy areas. Since simply increasing capital intensity will not be enough to increase labor productivity to the extent that the negative effects of ageing on gross domestic product can be compensated, the accumulation of human capital must be increased by engaging and retaining employees. In addition, the changed age structure will have an impact on the composition of aggregate demand for goods and will require significantly higher sectoral factor mobility in order to avoid sectoral employment crises. In an intertemporal equilibrium model, Christian Keuschnigg explains the occurrence of credit rationing and unemployment as a result of search frictions on capital and labor markets. Fiscal policy measures to promote business start-ups turn out to be an effective instrument for combating unemployment. Bernd Raffelhüschen points out that the social policy reform agenda for pension and health insurance must be expanded because basic security through social assistance, housing benefit, unemployment benefit and care allowance also needs reform. He develops a blueprint for a basic security reform based on two core ideas: subsidiary help for self-help and subsidizing employment instead of inactivity. Related reform concepts in international comparison and existing points of contact in the German social law system make Raffelhüschen optimistic that his reform proposal is not only economically attractive, but also legally implementable and capable of gaining a political majority...
