As public expenditures on health, education and transfer programmes
increase, demographic change has a growing impact on public
expenditures, and the incentives for behaviour created by public
transfer programs increase as well. The essays in this volume
discuss such topics as: demographic change and the outlook for
Social Security and Medicare in the United States; long-term
decision making under uncertainty; the effect of changing family
structure on government spending; how the structure of public
retirement policies has encouraged early retirement in some
countries and not others; the response of local community spending
to demographic change; and related topics. Contributors include
many of the world's leading public finance economists and economic
demographers.
