- catalog abstract "Positioning Pensions for the Twenty-First Century analyzes the role of pensions in retirement security as we enter the next century, examining how these programs will be able to withstand the challenges to the nation's retirement system and evolve actively to meet them. Developed by the Pension Research Council of the Wharton School, this book brings together a team of leading economists, corporate and labor specialists, actuaries, and policy experts to examine the future of retirement options within the context of emerging labor and business trends and innovative developments in the pension community. The authors illustrate how a successful public and private pension system can be sustained and strengthened, and demonstrate how employer pensions can be configured against a delicately financed social insurance system. The book examines areas where pensions have succeeded and failed over the last several decades, and it also points to positive new developments in the pension arena.".
