The book examines whether small jurisdictions (states) are
confronted with specific issues providing social security and how
to deal with these issues. How is social security law impacted by
the smallness of the jurisdiction? First, the author examines the
key concepts 'small jurisdiction' and 'social security' as he
understands them in the present research. He then pays some
attention to the relation between social security and social
security law and subsequently makes an excursion to explore the
notion of legal transplants. In the second part, the author first
examines the main features characterizing small states according to
the general literature on small states, focusing on features which
may be relevant to social security. He also includes an overview of
the (limited) literature dealing with the specific social security
issues small jurisdictions have to deal with. In other words, the
second part provides the reader with the status quaestionis. In the
third part, the author takes a look at the social security systems
of 20 selected small jurisdictions. He does so according to a
uniform scheme, in order to facilitate their comparison. These 20
case studies allow him in a next part to test the correctness of
the statements made in Part 2. In the fourth part, he compares the
social security systems of the 20 small jurisdictions. He draws
conclusions as to the main question, but also to test the validity
of the current literature on the topic as described in Part 2.
Special attention goes to the use of legal transplants for the
definition of the personal scope of social security arrangements.
In the concluding part of the book, the author formulates some
suggestions for the benefit of the social security systems of the
small jurisdictions, based on his research.
