Zusammenfassung:"Banking on Death offers a panoramic view of the history and future of pension provision. It traces the origins and development of the pension idea, from the days of the French Revolution to the troubles of the modern welfare state." "As we live longer, employers are closing their pension schemes and many claim that public treasuries will not be able to cope with the retirement of the babyboomers. Banking on Death analyses the challenge facing public schemes and the malfunctioning of private retirement provision, concluding with a bold proposal for how to pay for decent pensions for all."--BOOK JACKET.
