PENSIONS, SOCIAL SERVICES AND WELFARE: 

WHAT FUTURE IN THE AGE OF FINANCIALIZATION?

The last decades have been characterized by a steady and generalized decrease in the wage share for most advanced economies, coupled with an explosion of income inequality. These years have also witnessed the emergence of the complex socio-economic process known as financialization. In this context, the mainstream rhetoric of the unsustainability of social security and pension systems has provided the theoretical cover for a direct attack to some of the main staples of the Post WWII social compromise, subject to retrenchments and privatizations. What future can be envisaged for the pension systems and for the public provision of social and welfare services? The online lectures will address these important topics from different perspectives and approaches.


The Summer School is open to PhD students and early-career researchers working in particular in the field of institutional and evolutionary analysis, with a special focus this year on Pensions, Social services and Welfare. Lecturers will address these important topics from different perspectives and approaches. In the spirit of pluralism characteristic of the EAEPE, many Research Areas are relevant: Social Economics, Public Economics, Macroeconomics, Labour Economics, Effective Demand, Environment-Economy interactions, Economic History, Evolutionary Economics, Comparative Economics, Industrial Policy, Innovation and Technology, etc. More generally, contributions from all fields using institutional, evolutionary, multidisciplinary approaches are welcome. Lectures by internationally renowned scholars will be given in the morning, while afternoons will be devoted to presentations by advanced PhD students and earlycareer researchers, who will thus benefit from comments and suggestions from experts in the field.
