Jaja Frauenquote...
Lol since when is it relevant what Grimm says? She is probably the least smart and most opportunistic economist I’ve met.She is smart and an independent thinker. You obviously don't know her.

Serious question: Is it ok to treat an article that appeared in a conference issue as "normal publication" in your CV?
I see that from time to time in CVs. Does it depend on the field whether this is ok?Also: Journals seem to encourage that, i.e. you have to click on the issues to see that it is a conference issue. (Not AER of course, but e.g. economic journal)
-
Depends on the modus of peer review.

depends, usually you can do that but not always. for isntance you should definetly not put a ASSA AER on your website as a regular AER.

At many journals, there is an additional round of peer review after the conference. It is not enough for a paper to simply get accepted.

What do you mean by "German system"? This is completely standard behavior at the international level in economics. The same thing happens in the US for example: only about 25% of senior offers actually gets accepted there.
Yes and no. I agree this is, to some extent, true everywhere. But it is more extreme in Germany (to the point that in Germany professors put "declined offers" in their CV, something considered cringeworthy everywhere else)
It is more extreme in Germany, IMHO, because the salary negotiation is not done with the dean or HoD, or at least someone vaguely familiar with your productivity as a researcher, someone who can tell if you are productive or not, but with a career manager-bureaucrat, the "Kanzler" or, in the past, someone in the ministry of education. These people cannot tell a JPE publication from a Kyklos. So their only way of gauging your ability is to see whether you can garner outside offers. In the past (C4 system), you even had fixed salary increases for each outside offer, I think 750 DM or so.You have obviously no idea how things work in the US, for example. People go fishing for offers there just like they do in Germany.
Also, in the US a department head will talk to you about salaries, but higher levels of the university still have to approve the offer. The differences are smaller than you think.
Finally, nobody puts rejected offers on their CV anymore.

But why are these offers made? It is very inefficient for an institution to waste time and resources on an offer that will not be accepted. In many cases in Germany it was almost public knowledge that a candidate is extremely unlikely to accept the offered position. Are the committee members not well enough connected to being aware of such information?
They might be playing mixed strategies given some beliefs over applicants' willingness to accept an offer (you rarely know for sure that sb. will decline).
Plus, making such offers is a way to provide pay rises w/o having to move - and those making the offer might ultimately benefit from such offers themselves. My impression is that folks generally like pay rises but often dislike moving.
As can be seen above, I would not consider each offer as a one-shot game.

Do you even know him?
Yes, and I even talked to someone who was involved in one of his negotations (I don't know how or why). He is indeed a terrible colleague. No wonder that nobody in Berlin (HU, FU, DIW) tried to get him on board.
Who are we talking about?
