Jeg vil tro, at det væsentligste problem i Europa i dag og en af grundene til tabet af konkurrenceevne — ikke den eneste, men en af dem — er manglende dynamik hos de økonomiske og sociale kræfter.
I feel we are now arriving at a moment when every thing becomes possible because everybody is becoming aware of the difficulties which face us.
Krisen — det er hørt indtil trivialitet — er ikke blot økonomisk, den er også social.
But it is also important that everyone should have a global awareness and a global responsibility.
Opsøgningen af konsensus kan ikke udelukkende gøres på globalt samfundsplan.
In this respect I feel that Mr Herman's report leans too heavily on the economic side, although it does not omit, as he has told us just now, a call for consensus, though in forms which to us appear inadequate.
Her tror jeg, at der foreligger et punkt, hvor meningerne er meget delte.
I should only like to stress the importance of increasing Community loans, which has been suggested by the experts.
Vi skal finde områder for forhandling på selve produktionsplanet.
We have to recognize that there is a serious effort required here, because there is little point in putting forward some suggestions unless we know how the Commission is going to put them into effect.
Indsatsen kan ikke gøres uden mulighed for medbestemmelse.
This undoubtedly requires a degree of control and vigilance on our part.
Umiddelbart efter Bruxelles-topmødets fiasko taltes der meget om industrielt samarbejde, et europæisk industriområde, som noget, man ikke kan komme udenom, og som en af betingelserne for at komme ud af krisen.
Some of my Socialist colleagues will stress the macroeconomic aspects. I should like to point to a central fact about our European economic systems : we live in a mixed economy and in a very particular system of occupational relations and of social guarantees.
Vi deler fuldt ud denne opfattelse.
In my view there can be no recovery for Europe without the
Men i dag må vi konstatere, at tankegangen i mange industrikoncerner går den modsatte vej og driver Europa længere ud i krisen.
In view of the macroeconomic choices for which the majority of the committee has opted and of the imballance, we shall be very regretfully obliged to reject this text.
Denne tankegang sætter den finansielle ophobning i første række på bekostning af produktive investeringer og beskæftigelse.
I personally hope, however, that the debate may continue in the next Parliament and that through more detailed consideration of the positions of both sides the European Parliament will succeed in working out a solution to the present crisis, a plan for recovery which will command, if not unanimity, the support of the majority of the members of the groups.
Listen over sådanne aftaler er allerede lang.
I feel that we in this Parliament must also undertake the necessary effort to trace a new way for Europe to wake from her present sleep.
Tillad mig blandt andre at nævne aftalerne mellem ITT/Olivetti, ITT/Philips, Philips/JVC, Volkswagen/Nissan, British Leyland/ Nissan.
President. — Mr Moreau, you were kind enough to congratulate Mr Herman on behalf of your group.
Samtidig går et forsøg på en europæisk aftale mellem Thomson/Grundig i vasken.
On behalf of all of us, the Bureau also wishes to add its congratulations to yours.
Efter samme princip går europæiske koncerner ind for en strategi, der går ud på at give de stærkeste multinationale koncerner lejlighed til at trænge ind på det europæi ske markeds vigtigste sektorer. Denne tankegang må efter vor mening ændres til europæisk industrielt samarbejde, der bygger på imødekommelse af behovet på det interne europæiske marked med 275 millioner indbyggere.
Such cooperation agreements — I address the Commissioner now — should enjoy appropriate Community aid, to be granted in accordance with a number of criteria, such as creation of skilled jobs and vocational training, reduction of working time without a drop in purchasing power, greater worker participation in decision-making, and, of course, the application of new technologies and priority satisfaction of demand in the Community's domestic market.
Konjunkturfaktorerne har forbindelse med monetarismens dominans såvel inden for som udenfor Europa.
Cooperation of this type should not be the privilege of the great concerns alone.
Men i Europa fastholdes pengepolitikken med stadig mere religiøs fromhed især i de lande, hvor alle forudsæt ninger for udøvelse af en ekspansiv langsigtet økonomisk politik er til stede.
Small and mediumsized enterprises could, we believe, benefit from it even more since they could jointly develop their research and have access to more finance.
Jeg kan nævne Vesttyskland, Storbritannien og Nederlandene.
On the question of finance my colleague Félix Damette will be speaking in a moment.
Til trods for, at krisen afslører uopsætteligheden af et sådant samarbejde, kan vi vist godt være enige om, at der ikke er gjort meget i så henseende i Fællesskabet.
I only want to stress that we request the Commission that it should institute measures, for which Mr Papandreou has already asked, to penalize the flight of European capital to external markets.
Kommissionen burde være bekymret over, at de eneste industrielle succeser, f.eks.
This would ensure that European capital is used for productive investment and job creation in Europe, or at the least it will create conditions favourable to this.
Airbus og Ariane er foregået uden om Fællesskabet. Esprit-programmet er heldigvis en undtagelse.
We make this request in full knowledge of the signifi cance of the success or failure of industrial cooperation in Europe : we ask the Commissioner and the representative of the Council for an unequivocal reply.
Der er imidlertid et glædeligt skridt, jeg gerne vil have lov til at fremhæve.
I will also add that we have tabled a motion for a resolution to this effect.
Til disse struktur- og konjunkturårsager bør føjes de negative virkninger på Europas økonomi af visse internationale udviklinger, som de høje amerikanske renter, dollarens høje kurs, hvilket skyldes det enorme underskud på De forenede Staters budget, og også den lave efterspørgsel fra den tredje verdens lande på grund af gældsætningsproblemet.
Mr Papantoniou (S). — (GR) Mr President, the Socialist Group voted against the Herman report in the Special Committee on European Economic Recovery and if certain of our amendments expressing fundamental disagreement with the economic strategy proposed by the Centre Right are not adopted it will vote against it here this evening as well.
Den socialistiske strategi for genrejsning af Europas økonomi drejer sig om tre punkter.
Mr Wurtz (COM). — (FR) On behalf of my colleague, René Piquet, I wish to put the question on industrial cooperation which has been tabled by our group.
Efter vor opfattelse bør der gøres alt, for at fælles skabsinstitutionerne kan give impuls til mere samarbejde af denne type og fremme det.
But what we see happening today is that the logic of development of many indus trial groupings goes in the opposite sense and is plunging Europe deeper into the crisis.
Den socialistiske gruppe går ind for en betydelig forøgelse fra 6 til 20 mia ECU af Fællesskabets finansiering af produktive investeringer og en væsentlig forøgelse af Fællesskabets egne indtægter til finansiering af ny politik.
In their competition for capital, in their seeking after profits, European concerns look for non-European allies, preferably North American or Japanese.
Som led i den nye politik bør der lægges særlig vægt på velvillig behandling af de mellemstore virksomheder.
At the same time the attempt to create a European partnership, between Thomson and Grundig, has failed.
Vi går også ind for den etapevise integration af det europæiske kapitalmarked, for støtte til det euro pæiske monetære system og for udvikling af det interne marked.
In keeping with this logic, European groupings adopt a strategy which enables the most powerful international concerns to enter the European market in the most crucial sectors.
Endelig stemmer vi for Parlamentets indstilling om kortere arbejdstid på 10% over 2 år på en sådan måde, at den ikke har negativ virkning på konkurren-
This logic, we say, should be reversed : we need European industrial cooperation aimed at satisfying the demand in a European domestic market of 275 million consumers.
Samarbejde af denne art bør ikke alene forbeholdes de store virksomheder.
The present economic crisis is a consequence of both structural and conjunctural factors.
De små og mellemstore virk somheder er så meget desto mere interesserede deri, som de efter vor opfattelse ad denne vej kunne udvikle forskningsaktiviteten og forøge deres finansieringsmuligheder.
The structural factors emanate from the significant changes in the economic climate, relative prices, technology, demand models and foreign competition which have come about over the last 10 years, and from the failure of the European economy to adjust adequately to these changes.
Hvad finansieringen angår, kom mer hr. Damette tilbage dertil om lidt.
The conjunctural factors are bound up with the dominance of monetarism in Europe and else where.
Jeg skal blot understrege, at vi anmoder Kommissionen om at iværksætte foranstaltninger, der straffer europæisk kapitalflugt til eksterne finanspladser som ønsket af hr. Papandreou.
In America monetarist policies have been abandoned in favour of an extreme and irresponsible form of Keynesianism which has stoked up the recent recovery in the American economy.
På denne måde vil europæisk kapital kunne tjene produktive og arbejdspladsskabende investeringer i Europa, og der ville i det mindste blive skabt mere gunstige vilkår i så henseende.
But in Europe these monetarist policies are still being pursued with religious zeal, particularly in those countries where all the conditions are right for the implementation of a reflationary macroeconomic policy.
Vi er helt klar over, hvad det industrielle samarbejde i Europa betyder, når vi, hr. kommissær, anmoder Dem om at indtage en fast holdning i denne sag.
While the crisis urges upon us the need for such cooperation, we have to recognize that very little has been to this effect in the European Community.
Jeg skal tilføje, at vi har fremsat et forslag til beslutning i så henseende.
Let me remind you, however, for our comfort, of one step which has been taken in the right direction.
Flertallet i det midlertidige særlige udvalg, som bestod af centrum- og højrefløjsmedlemmer, var stærkt imod ethvert forslag eller enhver tanke om en ekspansionsfremmende langsigtet økonomisk politik.
To these structural and conjunctural factors 'we have to add the damaging effects on the European economy of certain international developments such as the high American interest rates and overvalued dollar resulting from the huge United States budgetary deficit and the low rate of demand in Third World countries due to the problem of indebtedness.
Men de argumenter, de anvendte, var mere ideologiske end økonomiske.
In passing I would like to say that I agree with the rapporteur that there is an acute need to control public expenditure.
På mange af disse punkter — med nedskæring af arbejdstiden som en betydelig undtagelse — er vor stilling blevet stadfæstet i Hermanbetænkningen.
The Socialist strategy for European economic recovery has three main pillars.
Selvfølgelig nævnes social konsensus i Herman betænkningen, men ingen, hr. formand, og det bør noteres, selv de mest fanatiske tilhængere af klassekampen, hr. Welsh f.eks., er modstandere af begrebet social konsensus på et generelt og abstrakt plan.
The Socialist Group has expressed its support for the sharp increase in Community financing of productive investment from 6 000 to 20 000 million ECU and for a big increase in the Community's own resources so as to permit the financing of the new policies.
Men problemet er, at social konsensus ikke kan realiseres med ord, men realiseres gennem konkrete aktioner, som sigter mod sikring og udvidelse af arbejdstagernes rettigheder til social beskyttelse og sikkerhed, diskussion og information inden for de nationale og multinationale virksomheder, hvor de arbejder, og deltagelse i ledelsen af disse virksomheder.
Along with regional policy, including as this does the implementation of the integrated Mediterranean programmes, these new policies embrace the industrial and energy sectors, research and the new technologies, the environment and communications.
Hvordan kan det forenes med den stilling, han tog, da han nægtede at acceptere enhver henvisning til arbejdstagernes deltagelse i virksomhedernes ledelse?
We also support the gradual integration of the European capital markets, the strengthening of the EMS and the consolidation of the internal market.
Lad det være, siger centrum- og højrefløjsrepræsentanterne, men vi er imod i ethvert tilfælde, i enhver forstand, ethvert forslag om forøgelse af betalingsbalanceunderskuddet.
I come now to the second main pillar of our strategy for European economic recovery, macroeconomic policy.
Men den stigning, vi foreslår, er ubetydelig, og det vigtigste er, at den er midlertidig.
As far as this is concerned our disagreement with the Herman report is almost total.
Den er ubetydelig, fordi den kun drejer sig om 1% af nationalproduktet, og den er midlertidig, fordi, eftersom denne stigning vil bevirke en stigning i realproduktet og skatteindkomsterne, det ekstra under skud selvfinancieres, dvs. det vil forsvinde i løbet af et eller to år.
Necessary conditions though they are, of course, we do not believe that the improvement of production structures and the lowering of inflation can set the European economy on the road to recovery by themselves.
Det vil være et bevis på deres uvidenhed, hvis de gør det.
They must be accompanied by an active demand policy.
Det er faktisk første gang efter den anden verdenskrig, at den europæiske højrefløj benægter, at den økonomiske aktivitet direkte påvirkes af den økonomiske politik og mere generelt, at staten ikke har ansvar for at sikre fuld beskæftigelse.
That is why the Socialist Group calls on the countries where conditions are right for expansion, countries with low inflation, small public sector deficits and balance of payments surpluses that is, to embark on concerted action to get the economy moving and stimulate demand.
Statens rolle begrænser sig ifølge denne opfat telse til kontrol med pengetilførsel og opmuntring af det private initiativ. Den økonomiske genrejsning og fuld beskæftigelse vil automatisk opstå ved markedets frie spil.
Germany, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands, which belong in this category, account for half the Community's gross domestic product, and a coordinated programme for longterm economic expansion implemented by these three countries would bring substantial results for the whole Community. nity.
I forbifarten vil jeg gerne sige, at jeg er enig med ordføreren i, at der eksisterer et akut problem med hensyn til kontrol med de offentlige udgifter.
The Centre Right majority on the special committee was dead against any idea of going for a reflationary macroeconomic policy, though their arguments had more to do with ideology than economics.
Men denne kontrol bør omfatte alle udgifter, ikke kun sociale udgifter, og problemet bør imødegås gennem en mere rationel fordeling af den offentlige sektors produktionsressourcer, gennem indførelse af nye metoder i den offentlige administration, uden at den sociale velfærd berøres, hvilket er en af grundstenene for social konsensus og en bestanddel af vor civilisation. tion.
Mr Brok, no one with an elementary knowledge of economics can dispute that in economies with low inflation, small public sector deficits, spare productive capacity and mass unemployment an increase in demand leads to growth in real product, in production, and not to an increase in prices. I am sure that even Mr Welsh can grasp this simple economic truth, despite his major shortcomings in economic theory.
For at være retfærdig over for hr. Herman, bør jeg erkende, at han i sin betænkning har accepteret mange af vore synspunkter på det internationale samarbejdes område til trods for, at hans tekst på nogle punkter forbliver svag.
Of course, Mr President, the Herman report does make reference to social consensus, and it should be noted that even the most fanatical adherents of the class struggle philosophy, like Mr Welsh for example, are not against the notion of social consensus in a general and abstract sort of sense.
Men forskellen i opfattelse vedrørende social konsensus og den økonomiske politik på lang sigt er betydelig, og jeg vil kalde den fundamental.
But the problem is that social consensus is not achieved by talk but by specific actions designed to safeguard and extend the rights of employees in the areas of social protection and security, and as regards consultation, access to information and participation in the management of the national and multinational under takings in which they are employed.
Jeg kommer nu til det andet punkt i vor strategi om genrejsning af Europas økonomi, den langsigtede økonomiske politik.
And I would like to ask Mr Herman how his support for social consensus can be reconciled with the constant references in his report to the need to reduce real wages in order to increase profits and for greater selectivity in social provision and cuts in social spending ?
I dette kapitel er vor uenighed med Hermanbetænkningen næsten total.
How can his position be reconciled with
Vi mener, at forbedring af produktionsstrukturerne og mindskelse af inflationen, som er helt nødvendige forud sætninger, ikke alene kan føre den europæiske økonomi ad genrejsningens vej, men at de bør ledsages af en aktiv efterspørgselspolitik.
Be that as it may, say the representatives of the Centre Right, we stand against any proposal aimed at increasing public sector deficits or State incurred debt, in every respect and whatever the circumstances.
Vesttyskland, Storbritannien og Nederlandene, som tilhører denne kategori, repræsenterer halvdelen af Fællesskabets BNP,
But, fellow Members, the increase we are proposing is a trifling one and, most important, of short duration.
Med de ændringsforslag, vi har stillet, og vor negative stemme i tilfælde af, at de ikke bliver vedtaget,
Trifling because it equates to just 1 % of national income, and of short duration because provided the increase was translated into an increase in real product and tax revenue the addition to the deficit would be
Papantoniou erklærer vi socialister, at vi er på arbejdstagernes side i deres kamp for at forsvare den sociale velfærdsstat og fremme økonomisk demokrati i virksomhederne.
I feel that a report such as this can primarily act as a catalyst in lending new insights which could, after all, pave the way for an agreement, provided we are both willing and able to leave behind the preconceived ideas, with which, as we have just heard, we are constantly confronted.
ordføreren har brugt et udmærket ord.
self-financing, that is to say it would be cancelled out in one or two years.
Staterne har forsøgt at redde situationen på nationalt plan og til dels endda protektionistisk.
I do not think that those on the Centre Right really hold to these weak and untenable arguments.
Eller rettere sagt: Vi har afskaffet tolden, men beholdt tolderne.
If they do it is a measure of their ignorance.
Vi fordømmer, at højrefløjen har tilsluttet sig det monetaristiske dogme, som fører til forlængelse af den massive arbejdsløshed, og vi bekræfter vor tro på samfundssolidaritet og nødvendigheden af, at Fælles skabet foretager koordinerede aktioner på områder som strukturændringer og langsigtet økonomisk politik for at skabe en udgang på krisen og tilbage venden til fuld beskæftigelse.
It is in fact the first time since the Second World War that the European Right has denied that economic activity is directly influenced by economic policy and that, in the broader context, the State has a responsibility to ensure full employment.
For det tredje har medlemsstaternes regeringer ikke ganske forstået, at enegang ikke længere kan føre til en løsning på arbejdsløshedsproblemet, fordi vores økonomier allerede er for snævert forbundet med hinanden.
According to this view the role of the State is limited to controlling the money supply and to encouraging private initiative.
Et Ikke-Europa, som ordførerne kalder det, danner en diametral modsætning til markedets fuldbyrdelse og genoprettelsen af vores økonomiske sundhed.
Economic recovery and full employment follow automatically from the free play of the market.
For det femte, kære hr. Papantoniou, er efterspørgsel alene uden et dertil svarende udbud en ren illusion, der frembringer inflation, dvs. at de fattige bliver narret, de svage mister deres ejendom, og arbejds pladserne bliver ødelagt.
I move on now to the third pillar of our strategy for European economic recovery, international economic cooperation. Pressure must be put on the United States to reduce its huge budget deficit, and on Japan to open up its internal market.
For det sjette er virksomheder rentable, når de producerer og bevarer rentable arbejdspladser.
In addition the flow of resources to the Third World countries must be drastically stepped up to enable them to tackle their foreign debt problems.
Det vil sige, sikrede udbytter er forudsætningen for sikrede arbejdspladser.
To be fair to Mr Herman, I must admit that he has adopted many of our positions on economic cooperation in his report, even though the report is still weak on certain points.
En fundamental betingelse for en sikret beskæftigelse er virksomhedernes rentabilitet.
However, the differences of view as regards social consensus and macroeconomic policy are substantial and, I would say, fundamental.
Vi har den store glæde, at Parlamentet ved afslutningen af sin første valgperiode efter det direkte valg tager stilling til det afgørende vitale spørgsmål, hvordan vi kan bringe den økonomiske situation i Europa op på et niveau, som virkelig for alvor kan sikre arbejdspladserne og vores evne til at handle internationalt i overensstemmelse med vores størrelse.
It has been damaged in the process, and now that the future is upon us, we are amazed that yesterday's conditions no longer prevail. We gave consumption pride of place, in preference to investment which, in essence, meant that the adage of being unable to have one's cake and eat it was once again vindicated ; what had been consumed could not be allocated to investment in the future.
For det syvende er efter de kristelige demokraters overbevisning den sociale konsensus gruppernes sammensmeltning i vores europæiske fællesskabssystem og arbejdsmarkedspartnernes gensidige forstå else en uafviselig betingelse for en på langt sigt sikret økonomisk sundhedstilstand.
With the amendments we have tabled, and, should these not be adopted, with our 'no' vote, we Socialists are making clear our support for working people in their struggle to defend social welfare provision and promote economic democracy in undertakings.
Vi bør meget hjerteligt takke både udvalgsformanden, vores ven, Jacques Moreau, for hans ledelse og hans tålmodighed over for os — vi var ofte barske over for hinanden — og især hr. Herman, der med sin flid, sin omhu og sin villighed til at lytte til og acceptere standpunkter, har tilvejebragt denne betænkning.
We condemn the Right's espousal of the monetarist dogma which perpetuates mass unemployment and reassert our belief in social solidarity and in the need for concerted action within the Community in the areas of structural change and macroeconomic policy so as to get on top of the crisis and bring about a return to full employment.
Denne forståelse fordeler sig på forskellige fagområder, og andre medlemmer vil senere tage stilling til dem.
Member States had recourse to national, and to a certain extent even protectionist measures, in an effort to extricate themselves from their difficulties.
Jeg vil indskrænke mig til ti punkter.
In a word, we managed to eliminate the customs but not the customs officers.
Og kun når vi kommer derhen, har vi en valuta, der ikke tager noget fra de fattige.
(Applause from the Left)
