| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 經濟學研究所 === 89 === The demographical structure of Taiwan is aging. Though it is a natural adjustment to the society change, and doesn’t need to be over-worried. But the augmentation of the demand for the old age cares caused by this trend is nevertheless not negligible. As the result, the understanding towards pension system, which deeply concerns the economic side of old age life, is even more important than ever.
The aim of this thesis is therefore to understand the properties of a pension system through the observation of the experiences in German pension system. With the results abstracted from that observation, comments and suggestions on the pension system of Taiwan could then be given.
To accomplish this aim, the first chapter will be devoted on the understanding of the demographical change in Taiwan and the economic resources of the retired, so that the necessary of constructing a pension system could be known.
If the first chapter provides a positive answer, the second chapter will give definitions to some important terminologies, which are often used in this thesis. As well, chapter two will also clarify the research method of this thesis, and review the literatures.
Then comes the main body of this thesis. Chapter three will follow the research method and analysis the present structure of German pension system as well as it evolution during the past 110 years. The goal of this chapter is to find the influential variables, which is relative to the change pension system. The fourth chapter will repeat the procedures applied in chapter three, and verify the explaining power of the influential variables in the pension system of Taiwan.
After all that, what the influential variables are is sure. To proceed and predict with the German experiences on Taiwan, a verification of the similarity between Taiwan and Germany is necessary. If the similarity is high, then German experiences are very likely to repeat in Taiwan. Taiwan could then learn a lot from German experiences. This is the task of chapter five. Chapter six will conclude all the result mentioned in different chapters and give conclusion and suggestion.
