Abstract: In recent times global competition is more and more regarded as a threat to national political systems, especially to the systems of social security. In this view, the ongoing globalization of markets and enterprises leads to a downward trend in social standards and creates a need for substantial welfare reform. In fact global competition only calls for a reform that is caused by the shortcomings of the national systems regarding the incentive structure, the financial burden sharing, the principle of equivalence. What is needed is a reform that reinforces the link between individual freedom and responsibility.
