Ce livre a reçu le prix de la Société italienne de science
politique (SISP) comme meilleur bouquin en sciences politiques en
Italie pour la période 2007-2008. Pension policy represents in many
respects the corner stone of the contemporary European welfare states.
And its reform has emerged as a key issue in most of the European
countries. This book aims at improving the knowledge of the long-term
and more recent evolution of retirement programmes and their
regulation at national and supranational level. It gives detailed
information about pensions in nine Western and Eastern European
countries (Belgium, Cyprus, Estonia, France, Italy, Poland, Slovenia,
Sweden and UK). In parallel it develops the study of the European
Union action in the field, through regulation, the Stability and
Growth Pact and the Open Method of Coordination. What does history
tell us about the evolution of pensions? Is it a story of stability or
change? Is there any convergence between European pension models? And
then what is the role of the European Union in the field? This book
provides answers to these questions and gives scholars, students and
policy-makers a comprehensive description of national retirement
programmes as well as theoretical analysis of the reform politics,
output and outcomes with a focus on national and European dynamics.
‘Pensions in Europe, European Pensions’ represents a promising
step beyond the more traditional comparative contributions, revealing
the complex interaction of national and supranational institutions
engaged in the most important welfare policy in the ageing European
society.
