Assuming a world of incomplete markets and asymmetric information, he uses a variety of simple models to illuminate the economic forces that bear on specific social security policy issues. The focus is on the degree of progressivity desirable in social security and the design of incentives to delay retirement beyond the earliest age of eligibility for benefits. Before analyzing these models, Diamond presents introductions to optimal income tax theory and the theory of incomplete markets. He incorporates recent theoretical developments such as time-inconsistent preferences into his analyses and shows that distorting taxes and a measure of progressivity in benefits are desirable. Diamond also discusses social security reform, with a focus on Germany. 001385919 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 001385919 650_0 $$aWelfare economics. 001385919 650_0 $$aWelfare state. 001385919 650_0 $$aTaxation. 001385919 650_0 $$aCapitalism. 001385919 650_0 $$aSocial security$$xFinance. 001385919 650_0 $$aTaxation$$zGermany. 001385919 650_0 $$aCapitalism$$zGermany. 001385919 650_0 $$aSocial security$$zGermany$$xFinance. 001385919 653__ $$aECONOMICS/Finance 001385919 653__ $$aECONOMICS/Macroeconomics 001385919 653__ $$aECONOMICS/Political Economy 001385919 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001385919 7102_ $$aUniversität München.$$bInstitut für Wirtschaftsforschung. 001385919 852__ $$bebk 001385919 85640 $$3MIT Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://doi.org/10.7551/mitpress/6659.001.0001?locatt=mode:legacy$$zOnline Access through The MIT Press Direct 001385919 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 001385919 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1385919$$pGLOBAL_SET 001385919 980__ $$aBIB 001385919 980__ $$aEBOOK 001385919 982__ $$aEbook 001385919 983__ $$aOnline
