Abstract

Der vorliegende Beitrag untersucht, welche normativen Schlüsse sich vor dem Hintergrund der Ergebnisse der endogenen Wachstumstheorie im Hinblick auf die Finanzierung und Ausgestaltung der öffentlichen Alterssicherung ziehen lassen. Der Gang der Untersuchung erfolgt in zwei Schritten. Im ersten Schritt (Kapitel II) wird untersucht, welche allokative Rolle die an das Umlageverfahren gekoppelten intergenerationellen Transfers von jungen an alte Generationen in endogenen Wachstumsmodellen einnehmen. Im zweiten Schritt wird gezeigt, wie umlagefinanzierte Alterssicherungssysteme konzipiert werden sollten, um die zuvor definierte allokative Rolle intergenerationeller Transfers tatsächlich auszufüllen.
