Timeline

1948

Rolph Eric van der Hoeven (born 23 June 1948) is emeritus professor on employment and development economics at the International Institute of Social Studies in The Hague and was appointed in 2009 as a member of the Committee on Development Cooperation of the International Advisory Council (AIV) to the Dutch Government.

Dr. van der Hoeven is a member of the Board of Trustees of the KNCV Tuberculosis Fund.

1969

Dr. van der Hoeven read econometrics at the University of Amsterdam where in 1969 he earned himself a BSc and followed it up with a MSc (Drs.) in 1974.

1980

In the 1980s following the introduction of structural adjustment programs by the World bank and the IMF, Dr. van der Hoeven researched and advocated that employment and other social concerns should be taken into account in structural adjustment programs.

1987

He was awarded a PhD in development economics in 1987 when he defended his thesis Planning for Basic Needs in Kenya: A Basic Needs Simulation Model at the Free University of Amsterdam.

Dr. van der Hoeven has worked for over 30 years in various places in the world for UNICEF and International Labour Organization (ILO), where he was most recently manager of the Technical Secretariat of the World Commission on the Social Dimension of Globalization, established by the International Labour Organization in Geneva.

Having previously held positions in the Employment Strategy Department of the ILO and with UNICEF in New York, he is widely published on employment, poverty, inequality, and economic reform issues.

At the beginning of his career, he worked in Zambia and Ethiopia, highlighted the necessity for developing countries to emphasize the satisfaction of Basic Needs as a prime goal in Development Planning, and advised various countries (Zambia, Swasiland, Tanzania, Niger, Sierra Leone) on how to implement the Basic Needs approach.

He played a key role in the high-level meeting on structural adjustment and employment of the ILO in 1987 and joined in 1988 the team in UNICEF, under the leadership of Sir Richard Jolly that worked on Adjustment with a Human Face.

1990

In the early 1990s he returned to the ILO to manage the Interdepartmental Project on Structural Adjustment in the ILO.

2000

Since 2000 he warns of the globalization effects on income inequality and employment, and became in 2002 the manager of the technical secretariat of the World Commission on the Social Dimension of Globalization.

Dr. van der Hoeven has focused primarily on the functional inequality of income distribution between labor and capital, i.e. the share of gross domestic product received by workers and capital owners.

Dr. van der Hoeven appeals to politicians to use the power of macroeconomic policies to reduce inequality.

He suggested a number of political solutions including counter-cyclical monetary and fiscal policy, stricter financial and bank regulation, progressive tax systems and strengthening social institutions like labor unions.

These kinds of policies have led to a notable decline in inequality in Latin America.

2015

In light of this, Dr. van der Hoeven called for an inequality goal based on the Palma index of inequality to be included in the post-2015 development agenda (SDGs).
