Abstract

Im Zuge der Agenda 2010 implementierte die deutsche Bundesregierung grundlegende Arbeitsmarktreformen, deren Kern die Hartz IV-Gesetze darstellen. Ziel dieser Gesetze war es, dem stetig steigenden Trend der nicht-konjunkturell bedingten (strukturellen) Arbeitslosigkeit über Strukturreformen entgegen zu wirken. Als Erfolgsmaß dieser Reformen wird in der Regel die Änderung der strukturellen Arbeitslosigkeit gewählt. Krebs und Scheffel (2010) gehen in einem kürzlich erschienenen ZEW-Diskussionspapier einen Schritt weiter. Sie entwickeln ein stochastisches dynamisches Gleichgewichtsmodell, das die Berechnung eines auf individuellen Präferenzen basierenden Wohlfahrtsmaßes zur Evaluation der Hartz IV-Reform erlaubt.
