| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Sweden's survivor pension system for spouses is equal for men and women, and in principle provides a fixed-term benefit of one year. This system is based on the premise that both men and women of working age can, in principle, become economically independent through employment. Although there are some problems such as differences in the work structure between men and women, wage disparity, and the economic difficulties of single-mother households, these problems are considered to be the responsibility of labor market policies and social security benefits other than pensions. And behind the high rate of women's employment in the country is the development of social services that are de-familialized and universalistic. Public nursing care and childcare have freed women from family responsibilities and provided them with opportunities to work. With regard to nursing care, however, a trend toward re-familialization has been noted due to the aging population and financial deterioration.
