The ISSA and Dynamic Social Security

Global Social Governance and Local Social Action

International Social Security Association, Switzerland, mckinnon{at}ilo.org

Worldwide, many social security administrations, and their respective programmes and policies, show signs of adapting positively to evolving and new challenges. To better articulate and promote these developments, the International Social Security Association (ISSA) is fostering an innovative conceptual framework: Dynamic Social Security (DSS). This article investigates, first, some of the potential wider implications for the common understanding of social security arising from the ISSA's decision to foster DSS and, second, the feasibility for ISSA member organizations generally of implementing policies and practices inspired by DSS.

Key Words: global social governance • ISSA • social security
