In De promotiekloof worden de promotiekansen van mannen en vrouwen op de Belgische arbeidsmarkt geanalyseerd. Bestaat het glazen plafond? Zijn de carrièreverschillen tussen vrouwen en mannen aan het verdwijnen? Kiezen vrouwen er zelf voor om te werken in lagere carrièreniveaus of worden vrouwen gediscrimineerd? Nick Deschacht beschrijft op een heldere manier de resultaten van zijn recent econometrisch onderzoek naar deze vragen. Dit onderzoek op basis van longitudinale data geeft een dynamisch beeld van de carrières van mannen en vrouwen. Er wordt daarbij een ruim carriereconcept gehanteerd met, naast het loonniveau, ook oog voor het functieniveau en de mate van jobautoriteit waarover werknemers beschikken. De rol van zogenaamd objectieve verschillen tussen mannen en vrouwen wordt onderzocht, zoals verschillen in menselijk kapitaal, werkduur, preferenties en jobkenmerken. Er wordt een maat ontwikkeld voor de grootte van de belemmeringen die vrouwen ondervinden bij promoties, zodat ook het bestaan van belemmeringen in de lagere carrièreniveaus (zogenaamde sticky floors) kon worden getest.

Current debates concerning the future of social security provision in advanced capitalist states have raised the issue of a citizen's basic income (CBI) as a possible reform package: a proposal based on the principles of individuality, universality and unconditionality which would ensure a minimum income guaranteed for all members of society. Implementing a CBI, would consequently entail radical reform of existing patterns of welfare delivery and would bring into question the institutionalized relationship between work and welfare. Ailsa McKay's book makes a unique and positiv

Many countries have social security systems that are currently financially unsustainable. Economists and policy makers have long studied this problem and identified two key causes. First, as declining birth rates raise the share of older persons in the population, the ratio of retirees to benefits-paying employees increases. Second, as falling mortality rates increase lifespans, retirees receive benefits for longer than in the past. Further exacerbating the situation, the provisions of social security programs often provide strong incentives to leave the labor force. Social Security Programs and Retirement around the World offers comparative analysis from twelve countries and examines the issue of age in the labor force. A notable group of contributors analyzes the relationship between incentives to retire and the proportion of older persons in the workforce, the effects that reforming social security would have on the employment rates of older workers, and how extending labor force participation will affect program costs. Dispelling the myth that employing older workers takes jobs away from the young, this timely volume challenges a raft of existing assumptions about the relationship between old and young people in the workforce.

Economic models in much of the public economics literature have been slow to reflect the significant changes towards double-income households throughout the developed world. This graduate-level text develops a more sophisticated approach to household economics, one that allows for multiple-income earners and shared decision-making. This approach is used to present a fundamentally new view of consumption. It then applies this to an analysis of tax systems, combining theoretical analysis of optimal taxation and tax reform with careful empirical study of the characteristics of income tax systems in four different countries: Australia, Germany, the UK and the USA. The book is particularly concerned with analysing, both theoretically and empirically, the impact of taxation on female labour supply, and identifying its effects on work incentives and fairness of income distribution. All this adds up to a fascinating new approach to the economics of household for researchers in both public and private sectors.
