Economic growth in the EU area rose markedly last year. Output expanded by more than 3 per cent in over half of the member countries, although growth was notably slower in the larger economies. The outlook continued to improve in the first half of this year. Growth in the first quarter was particularly buoyant. Eurostat figures indicate that output in the EU was some 3.3 per cent higher in the first quarter of 1998 than a year earlier. Although output rose by only 0.2 per cent in the second quarter, this was partly due to statistical distortions arising from the different number of working days in the quarter. Italy is the sole economy where growth has proved to be weaker than initially expected. The global financial crisis and slowdown in worldwide demand is expected to dampen EU growth somewhat next year, and we continue to be less optimistic than the European Commission about future prospects. Growth in the EU economies is projected to slow from 2¾ per cent this year to around 2¼ per cent in 1999.

After a period of fairly rapid growth for most of the 2000s, Jordan’s economy was exposed to a series of external shocks, starting with the global financial crisis in 2008.

These shocks resulted in a dramatic slowdown of economic growth, which dropped to an average of 2.5 percent per annum after 2010, as compared to 6.5 percent per annum from 2000 to 2009 (...

This chapter describes how inequality and real incomes evolved in Italy from the 1980s through the double-dip recession it experienced after the Global Financial Crisis. It brings out how the crisis Italy experienced in the early 1990s marked a major turning point, with inequality increasing and economic growth subsequently low. The labour market and tax–transfer reforms implemented in the following years are also discussed. The severe impact of the economic Crisis and very limited recovery seen to date reinforce pre-existing cleavages across the generations and geographically. Substantially improved macroeconomic performance is seen as central to the restoration of significant real income growth for ordinary households.
