How great a fiscal burden will current policies leave to subsequent generations, and how might changes in those policies alter the intergenerational distribution of public welfare? Generational accounting has recently emerged as a robust new method of fiscal analysis and planning designed to assess the long-term sustainability of fiscal policy and to measure the extent of the financial load ultimately borne by present and future generations. A seminal contribution to public economics, generational accounting has already been adopted by 23 nations around the world. Combining the latest and most extensive country-by-country generational analyses with a comprehensive review of generational accounting's innovative methodology, these papers are a consummate resource for economists, political scientists, and policy makers concerned with fiscal health and responsibility. 410 0$aNational Bureau of Economic Research project report. 606 $aFinance, Public$xAccounting 606 $aGenerational accounting 610 $aaccountant, finance, financial, money, wealth, income, economy, economics, career, worldwide, international, global, debt, government, tax, taxes, population, aging, growing old, legacy, future, generations, fiscal, policies, welfare, intergenerational, millennial, gen z, analysis, planning, savings, sustainability, academic, scholarly, research, higher ed, college, university, textbook. 615 0$aFinance, Public$xAccounting. 615 0$aGenerational accounting. 676 $a339.5 701 $aAuerbach$b Alan J$0115466 701 $aKotlikoff$b Laurence J$0124852 701 $aLeibfritz$b Willi$0229150 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910807861103321 996 $aGenerational accounting around the world$94063554 997 $aUNINA
