Paradigm Shift in German Pension Policy: Measures Aiming at a New Public–Private Mix and their Effects

Winfried Schmähl

Chapter 6 in Rethinking the Welfare State, 2004 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: In this book a distinguished group of contributors discuss the changing political economy of pension reform. They focus on those countries which have launched a significant reframing of their pension system. Each chapter provides a detailed review of recent pension reforms and offers institutional evidence of the extent to which these reforms suggest a redirection of the welfare state towards a more public-private mix of policies. The countries were selected to represent the variety of new directions which mature industrial countries as well as countries in transition have taken.
