1. Cling together, swing together: the contagious effects of COVID-19 on developing countries through global value chains

   

   Pahl, Stefan / Clara Brandi / Jakob Schwab / Frederik Stender (2020)
   Discussion Paper, 21/2020

   This paper estimates the economic vulnerability of developing countries to disruptions in global value chains due to the COVID-19 pandemic and reveals that adverse demand-side effects reduce GDP up to 5.4 percent, and collapsing foreign supply generates a drop in GDP of a similar magnitude.

2. Digitalising the fiscal contract: an interdisciplinary framework for empirical inquiry

   

   von Haldenwang, Christian (2020)
   Discussion Paper, 20/2020

   Taxation is above all a political rather than a technical issue. But what happens if new digital technologies cause profound power shifts in the relationship between revenue authorities and taxpayers? The paper seeks to lay the conceptual groundwork for the analysis of this interplay.

3. How the G7 reviews its work on development: a case study of internal accountability

   

   Fischer, Roger A. (2020)
   Discussion Paper, 19/2020

   This paper suggests ways to improve G7 accountability practice so that it better capture learning effects. Better designed commitments and improved follow up would also support G7 legitimacy, because this would make it easier for external stakeholders to check G7 action against its words.

4. Monitoring in German bilateral development cooperation: a case study of agricultural, rural development and food security projects

   

   Römling, Cornelia / Sarah Holzapfel (2020)
   Discussion Paper, 18/2020

   Monitoring and evaluation to increase evidence and thus aid effectiveness remains a challenge in the development community. This analysis of German bilateral development cooperation projects highlights quality challenges in German reporting and recommends adjustments for a more effective M&E system.

5. Corporate tax revenue and foreign direct investment: potential trade-offs and how to address them

   

   Laudage, Sabine (2020)
   Discussion Paper, 17/2020

   Corporate tax revenue and Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) are two key development finance sources. This paper discusses potential trade-offs faced by developing countries, when mobilizing corporate tax revenue and FDI jointly, and provides policy recommendations how to address these trade-offs.

6. Never-ending reformism from above and dissatisfaction from below: the paradox of Moroccan post-Spring politics

   

   Cavatorta, Francesco / Fabio Merone (2020)
   Discussion Paper, 16/2020

   In recent years, Morocco has implemented far-reaching political reforms of modernisation and liberalisation but these have never reached the stage of a systemic change. The country's political regime is still authoritarian in nature.

7. Information and communication technology in the lives of forcibly displaced persons in Kenya

   

   Eppler, Mirko / Stella Gaetani / Francy Köllner / Jana Kuhnt / Charles Martin-Shields / Nyat Mebrahtu / Antonia Peters / Carlotta Preiß (2020)
   Discussion Paper, 15/2020

   There is a great deal of potential for digital tools to help refugees, but there are still major economic and infrastructure hurdles before all refugees are online. Evidence from three sites in Kenya provide evidence that can guide future digitalization efforts for working with refugees.

8. What the EU should do for democracy support in Africa: ten proposals for a new strategic initiative in times of polarisation

   

   Hackenesch, Christine / Julia Leininger / Karina Mross (2020)
   Discussion Paper, 14/2020

   This paper reflects on the strategic importance of EU democracy support in sub-Saharan Africa and makes 10 proposals for reform to be better able to address new challenges in a changing global context.

9. Carbon consumption patterns of emerging middle classes

   

   Never, Babette / Jose Ramon Albert / Hanna Fuhrmann / Sebastian Gsell / Miguel Jaramillo / Sascha Kuhn / Bernardin Senadza (2020)
   Discussion Paper, 13/2020

   Changing consumption patterns of the emerging middle classes imply more carbon emissions. This paper explains how big the problem is, what drives it and which sustainable behaviours already exist. Being global middle class may be more important for climate change than country of origin.

10. Transnational cooperation in times of rapid global changes: the Arctic Council as a success case?

    

    Wehrmann, Dorothea (2020)
    Discussion Paper, 12/2020

    How can transnational cooperation be more successful in times of rapid global changes? This discussion paper discusses central assumptions from global governance research on transnational cooperation and explores the Arctic Council as a case of success.
