Download or read book Pensions written by Bernard Benjamin and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-05-01 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on the authors’ extensive experience as actuaries, this work, originally published in 1987, provides a thorough examination of the problems which had arisen, and those that seemed likely to arise, with regard to both public and private pension funds at the time. It ranges in scope from the realities of individual plans and schemes devised by employers and employees to the management of pension funds and investment portfolios. The concept of socially responsible investment is discussed. Reliable statistical information on the health, age and occupation of the population is an important tool in planning pension schemes for both the public and private sectors, and this book includes a careful analysis of the available data, leading to many useful projections for the thirty to forty years which followed. Although the statistical information is derived from UK sources, the problems it relates to, and its analysis was applicable to pension planning in all developed countries The breadth of the authors’ approach, fully embracing the apprehension at the time about the demands of an increasingly ageing population and a partially unemployed workforce, would give this book added interest to a wide range of academics and professionals in financial institutions, government and the social services. Today it can be read in its historical context.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1991, user charges and earmarked taxes are methods by which people pay directly for the services they recieve from government.

Book Synopsis New Perspectives on Human Resource Management (Routledge Revivals) by : John Storey
Download or read book New Perspectives on Human Resource Management (Routledge Revivals) written by John Storey and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-11-13 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of human resource management has become topical and controversial. The term suggests that people in any organization are an asset to be upgraded and fully utilized rather than merely a variable cost to be minimized. This in turn implies that the way in which people are managed is a matter of crucial strategic concern. Increased international competition has produced various initiatives world-wide for new approaches to management, in particular human resource management. This searching set of interpretations, first published in 1983, will be of interest to serious practitioners and students alike.
Book Synopsis The Structure and Reform of Direct Taxation (Routledge Revivals) by : James E. Meade
Download or read book The Structure and Reform of Direct Taxation (Routledge Revivals) written by James E. Meade and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-05 with total page 605 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1978, The Structure and Reform of Direct Taxation presents the full findings and recommendations of the ‘Meade’ committee set up by The Institute for Fiscal Studies. It represents the most important contemporary examination of the structure of UK taxation and direct taxation systems in general. The results of two years’ intensive research and discussion by this independent committee are presented as a report under the joint authorship of an outstanding team of tax experts. The committee brought together professional practitioners-lawyers, accountants and taxation administrators-and academic specialists in fiscal studies, and here provides a unique review of direct taxation which is comprehensive, singularly original and full of good sense. The book begins with a return to first principles, restates the objectives of a good tax system and analyses existing structures. It goes on to examine the feasibility of basic reforms which would allow the system to become more straightforward in operation and which would base taxation on what individuals take out of the economy rather than on what they put into it.
Book Synopsis What Happened to Planning? (Routledge Revivals) by : Peter Ambrose
Download or read book What Happened to Planning? (Routledge Revivals) written by Peter Ambrose and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-23 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 1986 during a recession much like that faced in recent years, which placed immense pressure on the British planning system and led to social unrest in the inner cities and in many disadvantaged areas. Within this context, Peter Ambrose outlines the features of land development and explores the circumstances of post-war planning. The central section of the book deals with the key forces at work in land development – finance, the construction industry and the local and central state – and explains how they interact. Using a number of case-studies, including the greenfield urban fringe and London’s docklands, as well as examples drawn from other countries, Ambrose provides an essential background to the British planning system and the problems still faced by it today.

Book Synopsis Economic Calculations and Policy Formation (Routledge Revivals) by : Grahame Thompson

This book was released on 2014-11-13 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These essays develop a Marxist response to and approach to aspects of the recent economic past in the United Kingdom. They reflect issues and controversies that have arisen within economic policy debate and the economic theory associated with the debate, highlighting the problematic nature of economic policy in the period since the mid-1970s. The book, first published in 1986, develops a line of argument organized around issues of ‘calculation’, thus challenging the orthodox Marxist framework and presenting a neo-Marxist analysis.
Book Synopsis Equitable and Sustainable Pensions by : Mr.Benedict J. Clements
Download or read book Equitable and Sustainable Pensions written by Mr.Benedict J. Clements and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2014-03-08 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pension reform is high on the agenda of many advanced and emerging market economies, for many reasons. First, public pensions often constitute a large share of government expenditure. Second, population aging means that reforms would be needed just to keep pension spending from rising in the future. Third, in many economies, low or falling pension coverage will leave large segments of the population without adequate income in old age and at risk of falling into poverty. Although a number of studies have assessed the effects of pension reforms on fiscal sustainability, a systematic analysis of equity issues in pension systems—and how countries have grappled with these issues—has yet to be undertaken. This book brings together the latest research on equity issues related to pension systems and pension reforms in the post-crisis world. Some of the key issues covered include: the effect of pension systems on intergenerational equity and the impact of pension reforms on poverty, the effects of pension reform measures on fiscal sustainability and equity, and the fiscal consequences of achieving different equity goals. It also presents country case studies. The volume provides a rich menu of material to assist policymakers and academic audiences seeking to understand the latest research in this area, as well as the lessons and challenges for the design of reforms.
Book Synopsis Routledge Revivals: Reactions to the Right (1990) by : Barry Hindess
Download or read book Routledge Revivals: Reactions to the Right (1990) written by Barry Hindess and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-02-17 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1990, this book was intended as a counter to the rising and continued strength of the New Right and an attempt to bolster the perceived weakness of the opposition — providing a critical discussion of New Right ideology and also of the more influential Left reactions to them. The contributors scrutinise the attempts to reconstruct the idea of socialism in the 1990s, and pinpoint the relation of socialism to freedom, equality and the market. In the course of this searching evaluation, they also take up issues relating more directly to specific policy areas such as monetary policy and international finance, secondary education, social welfare, and race relations.
