Mettre en œuvre la négociation collective à plusieurs niveaux
Les auteurs passent en revue les données internationales sur les avantages économiques de la négociation collective à plusieurs niveaux, en montrant que les bénéfices attendus sont très incertains, car subordonnés à un ensemble de facteurs imbriqués. Ils estiment que, avant d'engager un processus de réforme institutionnelle, il convient de s'assurer que quatre conditions sont réunies: l'attachement du pays au dialogue social, une bonne compréhens…
Le Covid‐19 en Amérique latine
L'Amérique latine a connu en 2020 une crise de l'emploi sans précédent du fait de la pandémie de COVID‐19. Les auteurs analysent les effets de cet événement sur le marché du travail et les revenus, ainsi que les mesures prises par les pays de la région pour y faire face. Ils montrent que le fort ralentissement de l'activité économique a provoqué une chute brutale de l'emploi, des heures travaillées et des revenus. Certains groupes en ont pâti plu…
Pension reforms in Chile and social security principles, 1981–2015
Chile pioneered in Latin America not only the introduction of social security pensions, but the structural reform that privatized them and a process of “re‐reform” implementing key improvements. A Presidential Commission in Chile, appointed in 2014 to evaluate reform progress and remaining problems in the pension system, released its report in September 2015. In light of the Commission's findings, the article assesses Chile's compliance with Inte…
Semi‐conditional cash transfers in the form of family allowances for children and adolescents in the informal economy in Argentina
In 2009, Argentina introduced a new transfer programme for children and adolescents younger than age 18 (Universal Child Allowance) that extended coverage under the contributory programme for family allowances to include families in the informal economy and families of unemployed persons. This article describes this innovative programme, compares it with similar programmes in Latin America and analyses its impact on coverage and its possible effe…
Are Old-age Pension System Reforms Moving Away from Individual Retirement Accounts in Latin America
This article reviews two rounds of pension reform in ten Latin American countries to determine whether they are moving away from individual retirement accounts (IRAs). Although the idea is provocative, we conclude that the notion of 'moving away from IRAs' is insufficient to characterise the new politics of pension reform. As opposed to the politics of enactment of IRAs of the late twentieth century, pension reform in Latin America in recent year…

Social Protection in Latin America
Social Protection and the Labour Market in Latin America
Most social protection is provided through contribution‐based programmes, which means that protection is usually linked to employment conditions in the formal economy. This article describes the levels, trends and structure of social protection for workers in Latin America, highlighting the relationship between protection and employment conditions. The study is based on a selection of household surveys carried out in various countries in the regi…
The impact of tax‐financed pensions on poverty reduction in Latin America
In many Latin American countries, tax‐financed pensions (TFPs) have expanded, mainly resulting from growing informalization of employment and stagnating or declining pension insurance coverage. In the five countries examined in this article, TFPs have generally been effective in reducing poverty and indigence. In Brazil rural social assistance pensions cut the incidence of destitution among poor older people by 95 per cent. In Chile TFPs consider…
From reform to crisis
Argentina underwent economic and social collapse in December 2001. The crisis brought the worst socioeconomic indicators in its history, and the pension system was not immune from this disaster, which was unparalleled in any middle‐income developing country. In 1994 the pension system had been restructured, and was regarded as a viable model for other reforms elsewhere. This article discusses in general terms the features of the current pension s…
Providing social security in a context of change
Over the past two decades Latin America has experienced major demographic, economic and social changes. The trend towards accelerated ageing of the population in most countries, together with the financial restrictions faced by social protection systems, has brought sweeping changes in pension programmes. The new demographic and labour context presents challenges for these new programmes which, unless they make the necessary adaptations, will def…
