“An obvious strength of this volume is the rediscovery of the controversial topic of intergenerational solidarity with an updated perspective, which provides for possible future scenario research. … Solidarity across generations makes a significant contribution to our understanding of the challenges and obligations (both public and private) faced in an ageing society. Moreover, the cross-country comparisons allow us to obtain in-depth knowledge of the issue, making the book singular on the spectrum of academic production.” (Marta Coimbra,European Journal of Social Security, July 8, 2021)
