Reviews

A serious and finely argued attack on contemporary market fundamentalism in a vivid phrasemaking style, which is even entertaining when it is not depressing you with the facts. Guardian An ambitious recasting of pensions strategy for an ageing society. Goran Therborn, New Left Review An impressive book... Blackburn argues that the hard-won state systems and the private pensions that supplement them have come under threat. New York Review of Books

Blackburn is particularly good at disentangling the different dynamics that make the pensions problem so intractable for mature, ageing economies.
