Time banking, a form of community currency facilitating time-based exchanges, developed in the United States during the 1980s before transferring to the United Kingdom in the late 1990s. Whilst now operating in over 30 countries, this paper explores the US–UK link, focusing on time bank practices within criminal justice. Examining time bank theory and the UK/US policy contexts, this paper provides an account of the Time Dollar Youth Court and the UK time bank prisons initiative, to facilitate a discussion of policy transfer and lesson drawing. Such an approach provides a fresh insight into time bank development, opening up a previously unexplored aspect of time bank policy experimentation.
时间银行是一种促进基于时间的交换的社区货币形式,在20世纪80年代在美国发展起来,然后在90年代末转移到英国。虽然目前在30多个国家开展业务,但本文探讨了英美之间的联系,重点关注刑事司法中的时间银行实践。通过考察时间银行理论和英美政策背景,本文介绍了时间美元青年法院和英国时间银行监狱倡议,以促进政策转移和经验教训的讨论。这种方法为时间银行的发展提供了新的见解,开辟了时间银行政策实验的一个以前未被探索的方面。

The purpose of this study is to measure and compare income inequality and its driving forces in the low-income countries of the Caucasus by drawing on micro-data from nationally representative household surveys in Armenia, Georgia, and Azerbaijan. Inequality in the region of the Caucasus is very high. The Gini coefficient for the regions as a whole reached 55%. Azerbaijan has the lowest income inequality, followed by Armenia and Georgia. Among predictors, graduate and postgraduate education has the strongest positive effect on income in all countries. By contrast, the positive effect of technical vocational education is relatively smaller and can be observed only in Azerbaijan and Georgia. In addition to formal education, knowledge of English and computers also has a separate positive effect in all countries. An increase in age, and therefore an increase in years of experience, has a low positive impact on the increase in income in all countries. By contrast, being a female has the strongest negative effect on income across the region. Living in rural areas and reporting poor health is associated with having lower income.
本研究的目的是利用亚美尼亚、格鲁吉亚和阿塞拜疆具有全国代表性的家庭调查的微观数据,衡量和比较高加索低收入国家的收入不平等及其驱动因素。高加索地区的不平等现象非常严重。各地区基尼系数总体达到55%。阿塞拜疆的收入差距最小,其次是亚美尼亚和格鲁吉亚。在预测因素中,研究生和研究生教育对所有国家的收入都有最强的积极影响。相比之下,技术职业教育的积极影响相对较小,只有在阿塞拜疆和格鲁吉亚才能观察到。除了正规教育,英语和计算机知识在所有国家也有单独的积极影响。在所有国家,年龄的增长以及经验年数的增加对收入增长的积极影响都很低。相比之下,在整个地区,女性对收入的负面影响最大。生活在农村地区并报告健康状况不佳与收入较低有关。

Active ageing and pensions in the European Union 欧盟的积极老龄化和养老金
Pub Date : 2012-10-01 DOI: 10.1080/17486831.2012.753022

Pensions and their future sustainability are a central policy concern throughout the European Union. Much of the dominant policy discourse around ageing and pension provision over the last decade has focussed on postponing retirement and prolonging employment. These measures are fundamental to the notion of “active ageing”. Initially this article briefly outlines perceptions of ageing following World War II and how perspectives on ageing changed before the emergence of an active ageing framework is considered. This framework is then explored in relation to the current European pension's context. Finally, it discusses ways in which the active ageing framework can be utilised further to improve the pension situation of older people. This includes the use of a more comprehensive approach to active ageing that encompasses a life-course perspective. This framework should emphasise the potential benefits older people present for society and their well-being.
养老金及其未来的可持续性是整个欧盟关注的核心政策。在过去10年里,围绕老龄化和养老金提供的主要政策话语大多集中在推迟退休和延长就业上。这些措施是“积极老龄化”概念的基础。首先,本文简要概述了第二次世界大战后对老龄化的看法,以及在考虑积极老龄化框架出现之前对老龄化的看法是如何变化的。然后,该框架与当前欧洲养老金的背景进行了探讨。最后,它讨论了如何进一步利用积极老龄化框架来改善老年人的养老金状况。这包括采用一种更全面的方法,从生命历程的角度来看待积极老龄化。这一框架应强调老年人对社会及其福祉的潜在益处。

The impact of the financial crisis on happiness in affluent European countries 金融危机对富裕欧洲国家幸福感的影响
Pub Date : 2012-10-01 DOI: 10.1080/17486831.2012.736354

The impact of income on happiness has received much academic attention. In general, countries with a higher income per capita have higher levels of happiness; nevertheless, as Easterlin has observed, an increase in income is not necessarily correlated with an increase in happiness. Easterlin's paradox has been central to the debate. By contrast, studies do not, in general, analyse the opposite situation; that is, whether a decline in income will have a negative impact on the level of happiness. Based upon recent data from the European Social Survey this article tries to fill this gap by looking at changes in happiness in the wake of the recent financial crisis and consequent change in income as measured by gross domestic product per capita. The article, using data for 15 European countries released in 2011 covering the year 2010, concludes that such a causal relationship cannot be confirmed on the basis of the present limited data. The reason why the relationship cannot be confirmed needs to be explored further.
收入对幸福的影响受到了学术界的广泛关注。一般来说,人均收入越高的国家幸福水平越高;然而,正如伊斯特林所观察到的,收入的增加并不一定与幸福感的增加相关。伊斯特林的悖论一直是这场辩论的核心。相比之下,研究通常不会分析相反的情况;也就是说,收入的下降是否会对幸福水平产生负面影响。根据欧洲社会调查(European Social Survey)的最新数据,本文试图通过观察最近金融危机后幸福感的变化以及由此产生的以人均国内生产总值(gdp)衡量的收入变化来填补这一空白。这篇文章使用了2011年发布的15个欧洲国家2010年的数据,得出的结论是,基于目前有限的数据,这种因果关系无法得到证实。这种关系不能被证实的原因还需要进一步探讨。

Comparing how various nations administer retirement income: essays on social security, privatisation, and inter-generational covenants, edited by Mark Hyde and John Dixon 比较不同国家如何管理退休收入:关于社会保障、私有化和代际契约的文章,马克·海德和约翰·迪克森编辑

To the extent that it has engaged with the philosophical debate on distributive justice, comparative social policy analysis has emphasised the importance of social solidarity. It is asserted that vast disparities in income and wealth are destructive of the mutual obligations that root the individual in the community. A fraternal society, we are told, requires statutory measures to circumscribe differentials in the distribution of material resources. In particular, solidarity requires publicly administered services and income transfers that cohere around the principle of universality, which can be defined in terms of equality of treatment regarding access and benefit entitlements. Privately administered services and transfers, where access is determined in terms of the cash nexus, reinforce social divisions and are therefore fundamentally incapable of sustaining solidarity. The dominant normative paradigm in the comparative social policy literature, then, holds that there is a single model of pensions that is capable of realising egalitarian distributive ends, and that alternative models, particularly those that rely on private provision, should be rejected. Hyde and Dixon’s book takes issue with this argument, first by highlighting the range of normative ideals that can inform the design and evaluation of pensions, and second by illustrating the ways in which privately administered retirement schemes can address the concerns that are important to distributive justice. This is an exciting undertaking that is approached from a multi-disciplinary perspective, with a focus on the pension provision that exists in the space between the two worlds of private and state retirement systems. This intermediate sphere is rarely addressed by the wider literature dealing with retirement provision, either from an economic or a social policy perspective. For this volume – which is well-written and easily accessible to the non-expert – the Editors have brought together scholars from far around the globe, all distinguished experts in the field, and each with an impressive record of academic experience that is highly relevant to the aims of the book. A particular theme discussed throughout the volume is the role of non-market/ non-state actors and agencies in the organisation and administration of pensions, which is an important issue both empirically and theoretically. A central premise of the book is that once we consider this role we begin to understand that the private organisation of retirement provision (with ‘‘private’’ meaning that pension saving is devolved to non-statutory agencies running funded plans) does not necessarily result in the problematic outcomes that are commonly associated with free unregulated markets.
在某种程度上,比较社会政策分析参与了关于分配正义的哲学辩论,强调了社会团结的重要性。有人断言,收入和财富的巨大差距破坏了个人在社会中扎根的相互义务。我们被告知,一个友爱的社会需要法定措施来限制物质资源分配方面的差别。特别是,团结需要公共管理的服务和收入转移,这些服务和收入转移与普遍性原则相一致,普遍性原则可以根据获得和福利权利方面的平等待遇来定义。私人管理的服务和转移支付是根据现金关系来决定的,这加剧了社会分裂,因此根本无法维持团结。因此,比较社会政策文献中占主导地位的规范范式认为,存在一种能够实现平等分配目标的养老金模式,而其他模式,特别是那些依赖私人提供的模式,应该被拒绝。海德和迪克森的书对这一论点提出了质疑,首先,通过强调可以为养老金的设计和评估提供信息的规范理想的范围,其次,通过说明私人管理的退休计划可以解决对分配正义至关重要的问题的方式。这是一项令人兴奋的事业,从多学科的角度来看待,重点是存在于私人和国家退休制度两个世界之间的养老金规定。从经济或社会政策的角度来看,处理退休规定的更广泛的文献很少涉及这个中间领域。对于这本书,它写得很好,很容易接触到非专业人士,编辑们汇集了来自世界各地的学者,都是该领域的杰出专家,每个人都有令人印象深刻的学术经验记录,这与本书的目的高度相关。整本书讨论的一个特定主题是非市场/非国家行为者和机构在养老金组织和管理中的作用,这在经验和理论上都是一个重要问题。本书的一个中心前提是,一旦我们考虑到这一角色,我们就会开始理解,私人组织的退休供应(“私人”意味着养老金储蓄被移交给运营基金计划的非法定机构)并不一定会导致通常与不受监管的自由市场相关的问题结果。

Pension market failure in Chile: foundations, analysis and policy reforms 智利养老金市场失灵:基础、分析和政策改革

This article takes issue with the increasingly influential argument that the privatisation of pensions can be made to serve the public interest, defined in terms of collectivist values. Focusing on Chile, it shows how privatisation has been informed by the anti-collectivist values of neoliberal political economy. Compared with the previous publicly administered retirement system, Chile's distinctive combination of defined contribution individual accounts, and a means-tested retirement income safety-net, has generated a range of sub-optimal outcomes. The salience of path-dependency means that subsequent reforms have, in all essentials, preserved this anti-collectivist approach to retirement income protection.
这篇文章反对一种越来越有影响力的观点,即养老金私有化可以服务于集体主义价值观所定义的公共利益。本书以智利为重点,展示了私有化是如何受到新自由主义政治经济学的反集体主义价值观的影响的。与之前的公共管理退休制度相比,智利独特的个人固定缴款账户和经过经济状况调查的退休收入安全网相结合,产生了一系列次优结果。路径依赖的显著性意味着,随后的改革在所有本质上都保留了这种反集体主义的退休收入保护方法。

Pension privatization in a welfare state environment: socializing private pensions in Germany and the United Kingdom 福利国家环境下的养老金私有化:德国和英国的私人养老金社会化
Pub Date : 2012-03-16 DOI: 10.1080/17486831.2012.655984

The interpretation of the move towards privatizing social services in European welfare states is controversial: “surrender of public responsibility” or “welfare ends through market means”? This article argues that the “social” import of private pensions cannot be assessed in isolation; rather it depends on the overall institutional arrangement of old-age security in a country. The “social” regulation of private pensions and the coordination of public and private pensions are identified as crucial variables. Empirically, the article shows that in two countries with different welfare state traditions, Germany and the United Kingdom, new policies of private pensions have transformed the set-up of old-age security. The article also highlights the limits to “social” regulation. In concluding, it shows that the findings reflect wider changes in western welfare states, especially the rise of a regulatory state in social welfare.
对欧洲福利国家社会服务私有化的解释是有争议的:“放弃公共责任”还是“通过市场手段实现福利目的”?本文认为,不能孤立地评估私人养老金的“社会”重要性;而是取决于一个国家养老保障的总体制度安排。将私人养老金的“社会”调节和公私养老金的协调确定为关键变量。实证研究表明,在德国和英国这两个福利国家传统不同的国家,新的私人养老金政策改变了养老保障的设置。文章还强调了“社会”监管的局限性。最后,它表明,这些发现反映了西方福利国家更广泛的变化,尤其是社会福利监管国家的兴起。

Many Europeans fear proposals to privatise their public pension arrangements. They believe that privatisation is necessarily informed by the classical liberal free market model, which, if imported to Europe, would prove to be incompatible with social cohesion and distributive justice. In endorsing privatisation, this article responds to these fears in two ways. First we examine several of the arguments upon which public pensions are premised, and find that they are flawed. Second, drawing upon our own extensive research, we find that several features of mandated private pensions can be compatible with the requirements of the public interest, defined in terms of collectivist values. Provided that they are appropriately designed and regulated, mandated private pensions are a viable alternative to publicly administered retirement income protection. In view of these arguments, Europeans should not fear all privatisation.
许多欧洲人担心公共养老金私有化的提议。他们认为,私有化必然受到古典自由主义自由市场模式的影响,而这种模式如果传入欧洲,将被证明与社会凝聚力和分配正义是不相容的。通过支持私有化,本文从两个方面回应了这些担忧。首先,我们检查了公共养老金的几个前提论点,并发现它们是有缺陷的。其次,根据我们自己的广泛研究,我们发现强制性私人养老金的几个特征可以与集体主义价值观所定义的公共利益的要求相一致。只要设计和管理得当,强制性私人养恤金是公共管理的退休收入保障之外的可行选择。鉴于这些观点,欧洲人不应该害怕所有的私有化。
