摘要：

In this paper, we investigate the way consumption changes around retirement in Italy. Using micro data covering the 1985-1996 period, we document the existence of a one-off drop in consumption at retirement of the household head, as in the UK and the US, but (at 5.44%) smaller in size, and show that consumption of work-related goods falls around retirement and home production of food and other goods increases.
