Abstract

La résistance aux réformes des retraites provient en partie d'une incompréhension des mécanismes économiques sousj-acents à la problématique. Ces réformes touchent aux paramètres clés du système de retraite : taux de cotisation, montant des prestations et âge de départ à la retraite. Nous montrons qu’accroître le taux d’activité des travailleurs âgés n’aura pas d’effet négatif sur l’emploi des autres catégories de travailleurs. En outre, nous défendons l’idée qu’il est important de maintenir un revenu de remplacement décent et lié à l’évolution du coût de la vie et de garantir un minimum de subsistance à toute personne n’ayant pu contribuer suffisamment.
