AnnotationThis article is concerned with the link between the effects of pro-market pension reforms on women and familisation or defamilisation measures. It aims to contribute to the study of this link in three ways. Firstly, it identifies defamilisation or familisation measures that have the potential to reduce negative effects of pro-market pension measures on women. Secondly, based on the examples from the United Kingdom, it shows that the government's willingness to provide sufficient defamilisation or familisation measures to assist women to deal with the negative effects of the pro-market pension measures should not be taken for granted. Thirdly, it suggests ways for tackling this problem. (RH).
