RE: Summer Institute 2009 - Call for Papers
I am writing to solicit papers for the Summer Institute 2009 meeting of the
NBER Social Security Working Group. This working group is made up of
researchers from several NBER programs who are interested in many economic
aspects of Social Security, including but not limited to: its impact on
saving and labor market behavior; the macroeconomic implications of its
financing; its implications for the distribution of income; its role in
insuring against mortality, disability, and income risk; the experiences of
other countries social insurance programs; and the microeconomic and
macroeconomic impact of potential reforms of the Social Security
system. Paper submissions on any topic related to Social Security are welcome.
This summer's meeting will be held on Wednesday, July 22, and is a joint
meeting of the NBER programs in Aging and Public Economics. If you have a
paper that you would like to present to the working group meeting, please
send it or an abstract by MARCH 27, 2009 to:
