The Steelworkers' Retirement Security System: A Worker-based Model for Community Investment articulates a new model for economic security based upon steelworkers' pension provisions and labor politics after World War II. Labor's collective bargaining agreements created interdependent commitments that sustained jobs and stabilized communities. The evidence in The Steelworkers' Retirement Security System includes an empirical analysis of United States steel towns and case studies of Weirton, West Virginia, Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, and Johnstown, Pennsylvania. By understanding the politics that bound firms and workers together and adapting these commitments to the post-industrial economy, The Steelworkers' Retirement Security System offers a new means by which communities can provide workers security and economic growth. This new model, the Guaranteed Pension and Community Investment plan, provide workers with lifetime retirement annuities and communities with reliable investment capital.
State legislators are constantly making tradeoffs between changing
taxes and providing public services. Not only must they reconcile
their own policy preferences with the preferences of their
constituents, but they must consider the impact of actions taken by
both the federal government and competing states. Glenn Beamer uses
a series of in-depth case studies in eleven states to show how
legislators made decisions dealing with taxation, economic
development, education financing, and Medicaid.
