Work amongst older men in Spain, 1900–1970
This article presents a historical examination of employment amongst men aged 60 years or more in Spain. We aim to explore the characteristics of this segment of the labour force and to analyse the key transformations affecting it during the first seven decades of the twentieth century, such as structural change and, most notably, the rise of public pensions.

Has Social Security Policy Converged? Cross-Country Evolution of Old Age Benefits, 1890–2000
The extension of social insurance during the twentieth century did not translate into homogeneous pension provision.

The most distinguishable feature of the household division of labour in Barcelona is the lack of substitution effects among family members, espe…
