    Public pensions and political decision-making (1985)
    Springer

    Notes: Summary A simple decision-making model regarding the financing method and benefit level of a public old age pension is developed. In line with existing literature, the decision-making process is supposed to be in the form of direct democracy, initially, In order to apply the model to a situation of a representative democracy, to wit the Netherlands, five social groups are considered which may be assumed to influence the decisions taken by the government organization. The empirical results show unanimous support for the PAYG system actually chosen at the start of the pension scheme in 1956. The results are highly suggestive, furthermore, as regards the fact that the financing method of the pension scheme has recently become a parliamentary issue. If one endorses the view that long-term considerations should be given a more preeminent place in this context, which would demand a change of the decision-making structure in favour of the young, then the political support for such a change would seem to be present at the moment.

    Social security in a general equilibrium model with endogenous government behavior (1991)
    Springer
    Journal of population economics 4 (1991), S. 89-110

    Notes: Abstract In this paper attention is focused on the economic and political effects of an aging population. For that purpose, a general equilibrium model is used that allows for an endogenous analysis of decisionmaking on government policies. We concentrate here on the effects of an aging population on expenditures and levels of social security benefits, the provision of public goods and services, the private output and intergenerational conflicts. Special attention will be paid to the effects of changes in the retirement age and in capital endowments. Furthermore, the effects of issues related to aging, as changes in the political influence structure and the motive of other-directedness by others, are investigated.
