Description

The essays in this international handbook analyze the impact of the economic, social, and cultural effects of ageing populations on government social insurance policies. They offer a perspective on how 20 countries have approached income maintenance programs for the elderly. Collectively, the contributors demonstrate how governments, non-governmental entities, communities, and families respond to changes in traditional income and social service support systems. They provide descriptions of existing programmes and look at the factors that gave rise to their distinctive characteristics.
