Prospects for social security reform

Description:

The question of Social Security reform, how to reform the system or, indeed, whether the system needs reform at all, is the subject of heated debate at all levels of government, in the media, and among workers, pensioners, and employers. Prospects for Social Security Reform informs the debate by exploring why the system is at a crossroads today and what to do about it. Diverse authors detail the size and nature of the problem, explain views of key "stakeholders" regarding reform options, and report new evidence on how reform might affect the economy at large. Research findings and public opinion polls are analyzed as are lessons from other countries experimenting with new ways to deliver old-age benefit promises.
