Sabine Jokisch analyzes the fiscal and macroeconomic impact of population aging in the US, the EU and Japan within a dynamic general equilibrium model with overlapping generations. In all three regions, the demographic transition leads to a dramatic increase in payroll tax rates. The study further simulates different reform proposals in order to analyze whether or not these could alleviate the demographic stresses. Radical pension reforms, such as full privatization of the pension system, are most promising.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSabine Jokisch, Born 1977; Study of Economics in Wurzburg; 2005 Doctor's Degree; Research Fellow at the Department of Environmental and Resource Economics, Environmental Management, Zentrum fur Europaische Wirtschaftsforschung, Mannheim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 231\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.4 x 9.1 x 5.9 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 06, 2013\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48376533156061,"sku":"9783161488610","price":162.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0811\/9867\/8237\/files\/na0qY9Z1J9783161488610.webp?v=1786801734","url":"https:\/\/handfulofbooks.com\/products\/the-developed-worlds-demographic-transition-implications-for-fiscal-policy-and-the-international-macroeconomy-hardcover","provider":"Handful of Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
