Intergenerational justice means a fair and just relationship between the generations. Burdens, duties and resources should be equally distributed between the generations. Depending on which generational concept is applied, it is a temporal or intertemporal understanding of generational justice. 27 Esma-Germany With temporal intergenerational justice we assume that at least three generations live together at any given time the young (0-30 years), the middle-aged (30-60 years) and the old generation (older than 60 years). Pension policy is discussed, for example, against the background of temporal generational justice, for example, when it comes to increasing pensions or pension contributions: Then it is asked whether one generation is unilaterally preferred or disadvantaged.
