Features: During the writing process of this book, the author strives to track the latest international research findings on social pension systems and focuses on applying these findings to the research presented in the book. The research of predecessors has provided the author with great inspiration. After careful analysis and reflection, the author has selectively adopted some of these viewpoints and formed their own opinions on specific issues. Additionally, the research in this book adopts a combination of normative and empirical analysis, with a focus on empirical analysis, aiming to ensure the content is comprehensive and convincing. Since the study of social pension systems involves multiple disciplines such as economics, sociology, demography, and statistics, the author acknowledges that some issues are beyond their expertise and still require further discussion and exploration.
