Routledge - Gender and Social Security Reform Book

As aging populations put pressure on social security systems globally, the need for policy reform is rising. This book from the International Social Security Series examines how these proposed changes affect men and women differently. Traditional family roles and gender dynamics are shifting due to declining fertility rates and the rapid increase of women in the paid labor force. Policymakers must now find ways to balance the fiscal demands of aging societies with the need for fairness. This text explores the challenge of designing pension reforms that produce equitable outcomes for women in a changing economic landscape. It is an essential resource for understanding the intersection of social security, gender equality, and global demographic shifts.
