N1 - 81 N2 - We compare the optimal insurance contribution rate and welfare levels for two opposite social insurance systems: a beveridgean one and a bismarckian one. The social contribution rates are decided by majority voting rule in both cases. In a model where agents earn heterogeneous incomes, we determine which system is preferred by which class of agents.Classification JEL: D7, H5 UR - https://shs.cairn.info/journal-revue-economique-2003-3-page-541?lang=en&redirect-ssocas=7080 ER -
