Generationengerechtigkeit in der Wirtschaftspolitik.

Eine finanzwissenschaftliche Analyse staatlicher Haushalts- und Rentenpolitik

Abstract

The new red-green government in Germany follows in economic policy the neoliberal aim of forced public debt reduction. Also the system of public pensions plans (with costs shared by employers and employees) will be reorganised, giving private pension funds payed by employees alone more weight. Both measures shall improve inter-generational justice. This claim is criticized as well in a fundamental manner as in consideration of the german situation.
