This article assesses the redistributive potential of public and private pension arrangements by simulating the probable outcomes for individuals across a range of circumstances under the multi-pillar retirement systems of Britain, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Switzerland. The findings show that the public pensions model may compare unfavourably with systems that rely substantially on privately administered provision when both are appraised in terms of distributive justice. In just systems, what counts is the role and scope of the public authority in framing and securing compliance with egalitarian aims and objectives, not the locus of retirement scheme administration.","PeriodicalId":270572,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Comparative Social Welfare","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116797365","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Does income disregard work? 收入忽视了工作吗?

The amendment enabled social assistance recipients to earn some income without having it deducted from social assistance payments (income disregard). Register data obtained from national and municipal sources were used to evaluate the impact of the reform. Income disregard did improve the incentive to accept work, and it did improve the economic situation of households. However, the results indicate that only a fraction of the target population received more income from work after the reform. The modest effects may be attributed to the fact that in the municipalities income disregard was not applied to the fullest extent permitted by the law. Another explanation is the shortage of low-paid jobs; that is, the absence of demand for the less-qualified labour force.","PeriodicalId":270572,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Comparative Social Welfare","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126684454","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The public remains supportive of Social Security and all that appears necessary are minor modifications of the Social Security system, rather than its abandonment to the private sector.","PeriodicalId":270572,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Comparative Social Welfare","volume":"3 1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123259017","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In comparative social policy research it has been recently acknowledged that policy development of income transfers differs from that of social care services. However, there has been little discussion of how to explain such variations. In this paper, it is argued that explaining such a between-policy variation requires an investigation of competing causal forces within and between economy, socio-demography, politics and institutions. Using qualitative comparative analysis, this paper scrutinizes between-policy variations among 11 countries of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development in terms of social spending level. The results suggest that the causal combination of demographic ageing and local fiscal autonomy determines the between-policy variations.","PeriodicalId":270572,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Comparative Social Welfare","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128368838","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its development has been viewed as a product of the government's ongoing process of controlled decentralization, together with privatization of education services in the early 1980s. The high importance given to financial decentralization has created tension among different levels of government, and between the government and minban schools. There are also governance issues in this new institutional environment. It is argued that there should be more comprehensive decentralization, greater freedom accorded to individual schools, and guaranteed resources provided to support basic education.","PeriodicalId":270572,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Comparative Social Welfare","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130573456","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In 2000, the Hong Kong government introduced the first compulsory retirement saving scheme intended to protect the entire workforce–the Mandatory Provident Fund. Since the early 1980s, the Chinese government has been attempting to develop a multi-pillar pension system to replace its previous pension system dominated by the State-owned Enterprises in urban China. This paper is intended to show that, despite these measures, the concept of path dependence has relevance to these reforms in Hong Kong and urban China. To meet this objective, the article discusses some significant similarities and differences of the causes, key features of the reforms in these two locations, and how these differences are related to the two governments’ attempts to address their earlier ways of providing welfare for retirees.","PeriodicalId":270572,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Comparative Social Welfare","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130562899","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
