Increasingly flexible labour markets and reforms of old-age pension
systems are still ranking high on the political agenda of European
countries. This volume investigates whether, and to what extent,
the interplay between pension reforms and the spread of 'atypical'
employment patterns and fragmented careers has a negative influence
uponeconomic security in old age. The volume, therefore, analyzes
the flexibility-security nexus by focusing on the post-retirement
phase, thus extending the conventional narrow concept of
'flexicurity'. The book also questions whetherreforms of public and
private pension schemes compensate or aggravate the risks of
increasingly flexible labor markets and atypical employment careers
after retirement? Around this overarching research question, the
various contributions in the volume employ the same analytical
framework in order to map, and then compare, the developments in
seven European countries - Denmark, Germany, Italy, the
Netherlands, Poland, Switzerland, and the UK - which present
different labour market arrangements and various degrees of
flexibility, as well as diverse pension systems.
