Summary

This seminar proceedings examines whether the current designs of social protection systems in OECD societies are well-suited to contemporary life-course realities. It looks in detail at recent policy developments in OECD countries to develop more flexible time-based social policies, as well as related issues, such as asset-based welfare programs, as well as policies to encourage redistribution of income and/or time over the life course and how these might be structured most effectively.--Publisher's description.
