  • Social Norms in Social Insurance

    Assar Lindbeck, Mats PerssonARTICLEJournal of Political Economy2018Referencias: 4

    We analyze how insurance arrangements, labor supply, moral hazard, and outright cheating are affected by social norms. One question is under what conditions norms may improve social welfare. Another is under what conditions people should be allowed to opt out of social insurance. We introduce an informal production sector to analyze the consequences of alternative assumptions about the information available to norm enforcers. This highlights one …

  • An Essay on Welfare State Dynamics

    Open AccessAssar LindbeckCHAPTERGlobalization and the Welfare State2004

    The expansion of welfare-state arrangements is seen as the result of dynamic interaction between market behaviour and political behaviour, often with considerable time lags, sometimes generating either virtuous or vicious circles. Such interaction may also involve induced (endogenous) changes in social norms and political preferences. Moreover, the internationalisation process not only limits the ability of national governments to redistribute in…

  • Reforming the State

    Open AccessVladimir Gimpelson, Vito Tanzi et al.BOOKReforming the State2001

    Countries of the former Soviet Union and Eastern Europe are entering the second decade of political transformation and economic reform. The first decade involved macroeconomic stabilization, privatization, and development of the basic institutional infrastructure of a market economy. The new policy challenges center on the nature of the social contract between citizens and their governments. These challenges include identifying the appropriate bo…

  • Insiders versus Outsiders

    Open AccessAssar Lindbeck, Dennis J SnowerARTICLEThe Journal of Economic…2001Citada por: 35Referencias: 33

    he insider-outsider theory examines the behavior of economic agents in markets where some participants have more privileged positions than others. Incumbent workers in the labor market, the "insiders," often enjoy more favorable employment opportunities than the "outsiders." The reason for this disparity is that firms incur labor turnover costs when they replace insiders by outsiders. In practice, the distinction between insiders and outsiders is…

  • The ICT revolution in consumer product markets

    Assar Lindbeck, Solveig WikstromARTICLEConsumption Markets & Culture2000Referencias: 4

    New information and communication technology (ICT) makes consumers better informed about available products, product quality and prices, which mitigates problems of asymmetric information. The entry of firms is facilitated, competition and economic efficiency is boosted and the market powers of households increased. Firms are likely to respond by increased product and price differentiation. There will also be considerable changes in the division …

  • Social Norms and Economic Incentives in the Welfare State

    Assar Lindbeck, Sten Nyberg et al.ARTICLEThe Quarterly Journal of Economics1999

    This paper analyzes the interplay between social norms and economic incentives in the context of work decisions in the modem welfare state. We assume that to live off one's own work is a social norm, and that the larger the population share adhering to this norm, the more intensely it is felt by the individual. Individuals face two choices: one economic, whether to work or live off public transfers; and one political, how large the transfer shoul…

    Assar Lindbeck, Jörgen W WeibullARTICLEJournal of Political Economy1988Citada por: 32Referencias: 2

    This paper analyzes the strategic and intertemporal interaction between two economic agents who have "overlapping" concerns, such as altruistic concerns for each other's welfare. The agents may be two individuals, a social bureau and a client, or two units in an organization. The authors show how the presence of such common concerns may lead to socially inefficient outcomes, in which one economic agent "free rides" on the other's concerns. They a…

  • The Welfare State and the Employment Problem

    Assar Lindbeck

    Social security, provision of public sector services, job security legislation, minimum wages and centrally regulated (bargained) relative wages are important elements of the modern welfare state -- each designed, often quite successfully, to enhance economic security and to redistribute income. The consequences of these policies for the unemployment issue are the topic of this paper.
