Professor
Siegenthaler's research spans the topics of labor, technology, aging,
and social policy analysis. He has published several studies
that are comparative in nature, for example, the book Conflicts
of Industrialization, which traces the social costs of rapid industrialization
in the nineteenth century; or a review of poverty risks for older
single women under different systems of social security. In
1996, he co-edited the Encyclopedia of Financial Gerontology, which
brings together sociological and finance perspectives on aging.
As of June 1999, he is Executive Director of the Institute for Socio-Financial
Studies. Professor Siegenthaler is fluent in German and French.
