AnnotationThe 1999 conference New Ideas about Old Age Security, on which papers are based, re-examines the evidence and thinking on pensions and retirement security presented in "Averting the old age crisis" (1994). The compilation is written for practitioners and researchers, and discusses implementation of the "multi-pillar" approach advocated by the World Bank. All contributors appear to agree that government must play some role in pension provision, but there is disagreement regarding past mistakes. (RH).
