Op-Ed: Professor Luetticke and Müller Analyze Germany’s Economic Challenges Ahead of the Election
As Germany prepares for the February 23 election, pressing economic issues are at the forefront of public debate. Professors Ralph Luetticke and Gernot Müller from the School of Business and Economics at the University of Tübingen have co-authored an op-ed analyzing the key challenges facing the German economy.
Their article, titled "German Election: A Triple Crisis Looms Large at the Heart of the Economy", explores the structural factors behind Germany’s economic stagnation, including:
- Weak productivity growth
- High energy costs
- Declining labor supply
The op-ed emphasizes that addressing these supply-side issues will be essential for future economic growth.
