Download or read book A Civilised Community written by Margaret McClure and published by Auckland University Press. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who should receive social security? Whose needs are greatest? Is social security a mark of citizenship or a cause for shame? Should cash benefits provide for basic sustenance or promote a sense of belonging? Does a benefit for sole parents break down family structures? How can the costs of social security be controlled? These questions are not new and have been debated throughout the twentieth century. This pioneering history traces the development of social security policy in New Zealand from the passage of the Old Age Pensions Act in 1898 through to the recent benefits cuts, the 1997 superannuation referendum and the Code of Social Responsibility of 1998. Margaret McClure examines the slow growth of state benefits in the first three decades of the century before looking at the 1938 Social Security Act, and she explores the changing pattern of state benefits in the postwar period, relating these changes to political developments, social patterns and intellectual currents. The book not only looks at social security as government policy, but draws on the experience of beneficiaries and the lives of ordinary people.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thesis I attempt to analyze the various effects New Zealand's PAYG Social Security system has on economic growth and individual decision making process. In order to achieve this, I first examine the literature surrounding Social Security design and highlight the elements of economic theory which explain how PAYG social security system affects economic growth and how its effects might differ from that of a fully funded social security system. I proceed by constructing an 'overlapping generations' model (OLG) of New Zealand's economy and then examine how the presence of the PAYG Social Security system can affect New Zealand's long term economic growth and population. One of the more interesting features of New Zealand's PAYG Social Security system is the fact that the benefits received by the retired individuals are paid out of general tax revenue, instead of being financed via a social security tax. This feature makes New Zealand's Social Security system significantly different from the PAYG systems described in the literature and I attempt to explore this difference and its impact on New Zealand. The thesis concludes with a general discussion of the results of the analysis conducted and suggests a direction for future research.

Download or read book The State in New Zealand 1840 198 written by Michael Bassett and published by Auckland University Press. This book was released on 2013-11-01 with total page 723 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this innovative study Michael Bassett, historian and former politician, explores how and why the state became such an active and interventionist player in New Zealand life, developing, subsidising and regulating the economy and protecting citizens from the cradle to the grave. He looks in detail at the many schemes in which a paternalistic government became involved, especially the extensive social programmes. These were taken for granted by the people but from the 1960s were increasingly difficult to sustain economically. By 1984, he concludes, this process of intervention had to be slowed. Drawing on departmental archives, many not previously consulted by historians, The State in New Zealand covers in a new way, and with clarity and style, a subject of great contemporary interest.
Download or read book Social Security written by International Labour Office and published by International Labour Organization. This book was released on 2001 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report offers an in-depth overview of the important, and sometimes controversial, issues surrounding social security in a global context: its relationship to employment and development, its extension in terms of personal coverage, and its contribution to gender equality, as well as its financing. Consisting of resolutions and conclusions drawn from the International Labour Conference, 89th Session, 2001, this book contains the report to the conference - prepared for the general discussion on social security and sets out the key topics and priorities for providing and managing social security systems. Global trends in social security expenditure are covered, as the report addresses such pivotal questions as: Is social security facing an ageing crisis? Is it facing a globalization crisis? Has it reached its limits in terms of affordability? The concept of social dialogue, and its part in strengthening and expanding social security, is also discussed and the report considers how family and local solidarity networks, institutions, enterprises, governments and the international community can help enhance the effectiveness of social security.

Download or read book Inclusive Growth Development and Welfare Policy written by Reza Hasmath and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-02-20 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent global financial crisis has increased the scope of poverty and inequality. The gap between the richest and poorest nations has become wider. National income inequality has also been on the rise. The prospect of a shift in designing and implementing development and welfare policies is strong in this new environment. The neoliberal policies of the Washington Consensus are giving way to development models which look to a more active government role in both economic and social policies. Meanwhile, in the parallel universe of welfare policy a fundamental realignment is already taking place. Faced with the current economic and social challenges, policy communities have turned to a variety of instruments to ensure that growth and social inclusion go together. This book offers a systematic analysis of the growing convergence on these matters in the development and welfare state literatures, utilizing the experiences of a myriad of jurisdictions around the world. Drawing upon the expertise of leading international policymakers, practitioners, and academics in the field, this book critiques the theoretical underpinning of growth and development, examine welfare state perspectives on inclusive growth and social/economic development, and presents lessons learned and best/worst practices from the experiences of developing and developed nations.
