D. C. ?) Public Pension Fund Management Conference 2003 (Washington, PUBLIC PENSION FUND MANAGEMENT
Public Pension Fund Management

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Until recently, `public pension fund management` is an area that received little attention by policymakers, practitioners, and development agencies. Even though there is growing interest in the public pension fund reform both in emerging and developed countries, there are not many resources available in the market in this area. The World Bank decided to actively contribute to the international debate over the public pension fund management in order to better advise its clients and design its programs in this area. One of the most important aspects of this effort, and one in which the World Bank has some comparative advantage, is in bringing together country experiences in order to learn which policies have been working and which policies have failed. Public Pension Fund Management highlights the key themes and findings of the Second Public Pension Fund Management Conference which was organized by the Bank and took place in May 2003. This book addresses issues of governance,… [detailed...]

Public Pensions and Economic Growth

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: This book studies the normative and positive ramifications of public pension policies in a growing economy. It analyzes the impact of an unfunded public pension scheme on aggregate productivity growth and efficiency, it considers the political forces behind public pension legislation, and it develops and discusses elements of public pension design and reform. The book emphasizes the endogenous growth paradigm for an understanding of the dynamic impact of intergenerational transfers inherent in an unfunded public pension scheme. It uncovers an allocative role of intergenerational transfers which is exclusively linked to the possibility of endogenously evolving economic growth. The endogenous growth approach also allows to identify unfunded public pensionsas a source of a conflict between current and future generations. This conflict shapes private old-age security considerations as well as the process of public pension legislation. [detailed...]

Public Policy And the Income Distribution

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Over the last forty years, rising national income has helped reduce poverty rates, but this has been accompanied by an increase in economic inequality. While these trends are largely attributed to technological change and demographic shifts, such as changing birth rates, labor force patterns, and immigration, public policies have also exerted a profound affect on the welfare of Americans. In Public Policy and the Income Distribution , editors Alan Auerbach, David Card, and John Quigley assemble a distinguished roster of policy analysts to confront the key questions about the role of government policy in altering the level and distribution of economic well being. Public Policy and the Income Distribution tackles many of the most difficult and intriguing questions about how government intervention ? or lack thereof ? has affected the incomes of everyday Americans. Rebecca Blank analyzes welfare reform, and presents systematic research on income, poverty rates,… [detailed...]

Public Policy Toward Pensions (Twentieth Century Fund Books)

Publisher: —
Description: Public and private pensions control almost a quarter of the United States` tangible wealth--equivalent to all of the country`s residential real estate. They account for most current saving in the country, are a crucial component of household retirement resources, and have significant effects on labor market mobility and efficiency. Collectively, they hold a tremendous proportion of all common stock. The stock market has boomed during the past decade, as baby boomers have rapidly accumulated pension assets. Now economists are starting to wonder what will happen when the baby boomers retire. It is already clear that the Social Security system will require drastic changes to remain solvent. Will the stock market experience a similar meltdown asbaby boomers withdraw their assets from pension plans? What policies might help to avoid such a crisis? According to Schieber and Shoven, pension policy will emerge as one of the key economic issues of the next decade…. [detailed...]

Public Policy and Economic Competition in Japan: Change and Continuity in Antimonopoly Policy, 1973-1995 (Nissan Institute/Routledge Japanese Studies)

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Viewed historically as the lapdog of business, bureaucratic and political interests, Japan`s Fair Trade Commission has had mixed success in promoting its agenda for stronger antimonopoly policy since the early 1970s. Dr Beeman unravels antimonopoly politics in Japan through an analysis of the diverse interests of industry, government, and other parties to reveal how and why antimonopoly policy has made important inroads yet ultimately failed to gain deep acceptance in Japan. Employing extensive use of primary research materials and numerous interviews of key participants from government and industry, Dr Beeman finds predictable patterns of change and continuity in antimonopoly policy from the perspective of legal scholars or from the narrow context of Japan`s key industrial sectors. The book provides a unique insight into an agency and a policy that has often been criticized within Japan as too stringent and from outside Japan as too lax. [detailed...]

Public Policy in an Entrepreneurial Economy: Creating the Conditions for Business Growth (International Studies in Entrepreneurship)

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In recent years there has been increased focus on understanding the dynamic relationships among entrepreneurship, policymaking, and economic growth. At the heart of research, debate, and practical application is the question: `Under what conditions can entrepreneurship flourish?` And the corollary: `To what degree does encouraging entrepreneurship result in economic growth?` A popular response is to argue for `entrepreneurship policy`—that is, targeted policies that are designed to promote innovation, entrepreneurship, and small business creation. To the editors and contributors of this volume, that approach is fundamentally flawed. They argue that there is no such thing as a discrete entrepreneurship policy, instead, there is only policymaking in the context of an entrepreneurial economy. In other words, all policies—from education and tax reform to securities regulation to immigration—should create an environment that is conducive to entrepreneurship. Presenting new research on such… [detailed...]

Public Power, Private Dams: The Hells Canyon High Dam Controversy (Weyerhaeuser Environmental Books)

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In the years following World War II, the world`s biggest dam was almost built in Hells Canyon on the Snake River in Idaho. Karl Boyd Brooks tells the story of the dam controversy, which became a referendum not only on public-power expansion but also on the environmental implications of the New Deal`s natural -- resources and economic policy. Private-power critics of the Hells Canyon High Dam posed difficult questions about the implications of damming rivers to create power and to grow crops. Activists, attorneys, and scientists pioneered legal tactics and political rhetoric that would help to define the environmental movement in the 1960s. The debate, however, was less about endangered salmon or threatened wild country and more about who would control land and water and whether state enterprise or private capital would oversee the supply of electricity. By thwarting the dam`s construction, Snake Basin irrigators retained control over water as well as economic and political… [detailed...]

Public Private Partnerships in Construction

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Collaborative working and partnering between the public and private sectors has been fairly standard practice, in some form or other, for over 100 years. However, its profile has risen only comparatively recently. In the UK, it is little more than 10 years since the most widely known Public Private Partnership, the Private Finance Initiative, was launched and yet it has already been described by some as `the new economic paradigm`. Initially a public relations disaster, the PFI has now become the preferred method of procurement for many UK Government agencies, such as the NHS A?38bn capital building programme, whereas other bodies oppose the introduction of the private sector into the provision of traditional public sector services. Although the use of PPPs / PFIs is the most controversial procurement strategy currently employed by the UK government, it currently accounts for approximately 11% of government expenditure and there is no doubt that it is here to stay. What lessons can… [detailed...]

InPublic Rape: Representing Violation in Fiction and Film Tanya Horeck considers the public investment in images of rape and the figure of the raped woman. Introducing the idea of `public rape`, Horeck looks at how images of rape - from news stories to Hollywood films and popular fiction - serve as cultural fantasies of sexual, racial and class difference. Public Rape argues that the concept of fantasy, while much maligned in traditional feminist writing on sexual violence, is the key to understanding the investment in narratives of rape. sustained investigation of the representation of rape in a Topics addressed include the use of rape as an origin story in the work of classic feminist writers such as Susan Brownmiller and Marilyn French, the infamous New Bedford `Big Dan`s` gang rape case, rape in films… [detailed...]
