Abstract
The International Social Security Association (ISSA) has always had as one of its
missions the exchange of information between member organizations in order to
assist them to learn about common challenges and efforts taken to meet them. The
International Social Security Review has long been one of the vehicles by which such
information has been distributed. It has provided a forum where policy-makers can
articulate and explain in a thoughtful fashion their initiatives and their concerns
and where academics can raise new issues and throw a critical light upon efforts to
meet existing and perceived needs that have already been undertaken. By definition,
the content of the Review provides opportunities for comparison and, on many
occasions, specific contributions have a comparative component. Because it is
directed to a practitioner audience as much as an academic one, contributors feel
obliged to make recommendations and, indeed, are encouraged to do so.Moreover,
academics working in the area of policy analysis recognize that they are not merely
commentators; they are also expected to use their analysis to make suggestions
about what needs to be changed and about what more, or what instead, needs to be
done.
