What are the limits of Europeanization? This book explores the
impact of the European Union's agenda of structural reform on
Greece. This is a setting that welcomes closer European unity, but
which apparently struggles to adapt to the demands of adaptation.
The book analyses why the domestic system has so often resisted
adaptation in these important economic areas by charting policy
initiatives over the last decade on privatization, labour market
regulation, and pensions. Its findings raise questions about the
scope of the EU to coordinate a programme of economic reform,
alongside the inclusion and governability of a system that fails to
deliver.
This book examines the many economic and budgetary aspects of
aging, and of an aging population, exploring the welfare state and
incentives to retire, the macroeconomic and fiscal implications of
aging and the long-run effects of government spending on the
elderly. There is also an examination of the changing patterns of
retirement behaviour, economic well-being and gender disparities
among the elderly, the interaction between private and public
provisioning, and aspects of retirement security.
This book examines the aging of the US population as a primary
domestic public policy issue. An increase in the proportion of the
elderly in the total population will potentially result in a
significant growth in the number of beneficiaries in major federal
entitlement programs, leading to fiscal pressures and challenges
for economic growth.
The book presents the distributional consequences of the public
sector. Examining both theoretically and empirically, both the
effects of giovernment spending and taxation on personal
distribution, i.e. on families and individuals and the relationship
between the public sector and functional distribution of national
income. Government expenditures are explored, asking who benefits
from them, who from government transfer programs and who bears the
tax burden?
An innovative case study of one of the most recalcitrant member
states of the EU: Greece. Based on extensive empirical research,
the book relates its evidence to two major conceptual frames:
'Europeanization' and 'varieties of capitalism'. These are
complementary and one compensates for the limitations of the other.
