Inequality, life expectancy, and the alienation effect: Insights from a real-effort experiment on the intragenerational redistribution puzzle
In most OECD countries, pension reform policy has decreased the level of intragenerational redistribution in the public pension system over the last three decades, that is, redistribution among members of the same generation with high and low pension entitlements. This trend has occurred despite heterogeneity in life expectancy linked to socioeconomic status having a regressive impact on outcomes. We propose a model that explains this empirical puzzle through the ‘alienation’ of society from low-income earners and successfully test the model in a real-effort experiment.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Economic Behavior and Organization is devoted to theoretical and empirical research concerning economic decision, organization and behavior and to economic change in all its aspects. Its specific purposes are to foster an improved understanding of how human cognitive, computational and informational characteristics influence the working of economic organizations and market economies and how an economy structural features lead to various types of micro and macro behavior, to changing patterns of development and to institutional evolution. Research with these purposes that explore the interrelations of economics with other disciplines such as biology, psychology, law, anthropology, sociology and mathematics is particularly welcome.
