An empirical analysis of the changing role of the German Bundesbank after 1983
Article Abstract:
A test of whether the monetary policy of Germany determines price inflation within the whole of Europe is conducted by analyzing the monetary mechanisms in Germany, as well as their effect on price inflation before and after 1983. The study showed that, while the money supply is controllable and either its expansion or contraction has the anticipated effect on prices, income, and interest rates before the sample period, these monetary mechanisms were no longer functional after the period in question. Such a system, particularly the one that prevailed after 1983, relies to a large extent on the bond rate.

Privatisation and efficiency in the UK water industry: an empirical analysis
Article Abstract:
A study of the effects of privatization in the UK water industry showed that the industry incurred lost benefits after failing to regulate itself over service quality. The observation was made while it was still under public ownership. The post-privatization structure of the UK water industry is based on the separation of environmental services from the other produced outputs within an integrated system.
