Acknowledgments
The National Academy of Social Insurance is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization devoted to furthering knowledge and understanding of Social Security and related programs. The Academy provides a forum in which to explore challenges and opportunities facing the field of social insurance; assesses social insurance programs and their relationships to other public and private programs; helps develop future scholars and administrative leaders; supports basic study, policy analysis, and research; and promotes public understanding of social insurance principles and programs.
This book is based primarily on papers delivered at the seventh annual conference of the Academy.1 The conference, "Social Security: What Role for the Future?," was held on January 2526, 1995, in Washington. Sessions and speakers took a fresh look at questions that are key to understanding the future of the cash benefits portion of old-age protection under Social Security.
As with all activities organized under its auspices, the Academy takes responsibility for assuring the independence of this book. Participants in the conference were chosen for their recognized expertise and with due consideration of the balance of disciplines appropriate to the program. The resulting chapters represent the views of those who presented the papers and are not necessarily the views of the officers, board, staff, or members of the Academy.
We would like to thank all the conference participants for sparking a lively discussion of ideas and the Academy staff for making the conference run as smoothly as it did. We also appreciate the efforts of all the people who have made this book possible: the authors for their timely attention to the huge task

Larson and Terry T. Nixon, who saw the project through to completion.
