Age in the Welfare State: The Origins of Social Spending on Pensioners, Workers, and Children - Cambridge Studies in Comparative Politics
Lynch, Julia (Janice and Julian Bers Assistant Professor in the Social Sciences, University of Pennsylvania)
This book is about why state spending on things like pensions, unemployment benefits, and family allowances is tilted towards the elderly in some countries but not in others. The novel way of looking at what welfare states do leads to very different conclusions from the standard literature.
