Solving Unequal Pensions through Voluntary Transfers : A gender analysis of the possibility to transfer your premium pension rights to your partner

In this magister thesis I will critically analyse the possibility to transfer one’s premium pension rights to one’s spouse or registered partner using Carol Bacchi’s WPR approach. After a short presentation of the Swedish pension system, I will use delve deeper into the policy and discuss what it acknowledges, silences, and contributes to. Several suggestions of improvement are discussed, but there are no obvious solutions to be found. The policy can be questioned from a gender perspective and the conclusion is that it would be wise to take a step back and reflect on the policy before expanding it.
