| Annotation | In order to assess people's preferences regarding potential reforms of the Irish state pension system, a sample of the Irish adult population was surveyed about their opinion on a selection of measures and issues related to the redistributive principles and parameters of the pension scheme. Even though very few people are well-informed about the pension system, this article's authors observe a kind of homogeneity regarding perceptions about the way public pension benefits should be provided. As far as is known, this article represents the first attempt to elicit people's preferences for reforming the state Irish pension system using stated preferences techniques. (RH). |
