    Dieser Beitrag formuliert fünf Thesen zur Klimapolitik aus wirtschaftsethischer Sicht. Gezeigt wird, dass es sich um ein außerordentlich komplexes Problem handelt und dass die Kosten zur Lösung dieses Problems weder von den Entwicklungsländern noch von den Unternehmen getragen werden (können) und deshalb primär von den privaten Haushalten der reichen westlichen Nationen geschultert werden müssen. Erläutert wird die extreme Bedeutung statischer und dynamischer Effizienz sowie die wirtschaftsethische Hauptthese, dass ein moralischer Heroismus im Bereich der Klimapolitik weder notwendig noch hinreichend ist. This article discusses, from the perspective of economic ethics, five theses on climate politics. It shows that climate change policies are confronted with an exceedingly difficult problem and that the costs to solve this problem will be shouldered neither by poor countries nor by business firms. Therefore, they have to be shouldered by private households in rich western countries. This article furthermore explains the crucial role of static and dynamic efficiency as well as the main thesis that moral heroism is neither necessary nor sufficient to solve the problem of climate change.

    Wage Dispersion and Efficiency. It is often assumed that markets generate efficient allocations, but these are not necessarily fair. The widening of wage differentials that is currently observed is interpreted in this manner: Skill-biased technological progress increases demand for skilled work and makes unskilled labor redundant. Increasing wage dispersion is seen as a market response to an increased scarcity of skilled workers. While wage differentials are widening, we observe at the same time increasing over-qualification in all segments of the labor market. This suggests an increasing abundance of skilled workers, rather than shortage. This paper suggest an explanation for the joint occurrence of wage dispersion and over-qualification. Wage dispersion is brought about by the wage-setting policies of firms that respond to an increased importance of skill differences among workers. The widening wage differentials render the acquisition of skills more rewarding. As a result, wage dispersion and over-qualification increase together. Both are inefficient. Policies that bring wage differentials closer to compensating differentials will increase both efficiency and fairness, quite in line with the classical position taken by Adam Smith on these issues.
