abstract: 'The paper analyses changes in the generosity of public transfers to the
unemployed and their effectiveness for the alleviation of poverty risks
in Germany and Great Britain between the 1990s and the 2000s. In the
light of changing poverty risks among the unemployed, the contribution
of policy changes is assessed using individual-level data on household
incomes. The results indicate that the introduction and expansion of the
tax credit programmes in Britain led to an increase of public transfers
especially for those with low household market incomes and thereby also
improved the effectiveness of transfers in combating poverty. In
Germany, the generosity of transfers to the unemployed hardly changed
over time, whereas the effectiveness of transfers to prevent households
from falling into poverty declined. This can be explained by changes in
the composition of the unemployed by recent labour force participation
and household market incomes. As former labour market insiders are
consistently better protected from poverty than former outsiders, the
results confirm the stratified nature of unemployment protection in
Germany, albeit no significant trend towards increasing dualisation in
public benefits is found. Thus, the results do not support notions of a
fundamental shift of the system of unemployment protection with respect
to the generosity of transfers in Germany but emphasise the importance
of changes in the German labour market.'
