Prospects for Social Security Reform
Olivia S. Mitchell, Robert Myers, and Howard Young, Editors
Global aging exerts enormous pressure on underfunded social security systems.
This book critically evaluates proposals to reform social security, including
privatization, means-testing, and raising retirement ages. Tax and benefit
changes are also explored in detail. Economists, actuaries, gerontologists,
and academics join in a search for viable solutions, drawing lessons from the
US and other countries.
