Demographische Alterung und ökonomische Globalisierungsprozesse lassen Zweifel an der nachhaltigen Finanzierbarkeit der sozialen Sicherungssysteme in den europäischen Wohlfahrtsstaaten aufkommen. Durch einen Vergleich zweier Studien zu den Konsequenzen der zukünftigen Bevölkerungsentwicklung für die staatlichen Sozialausgaben in Österreich wird gezeigt, dass demographische Alterung nicht per se zu einem dramatischen Anstieg der Sozialausgaben am BIP führen muss, sondernden wirtschaftlichen, sozialen und politischen Rahmenbedingungen dabei eine entscheidende Rolle zukommt.
