In this research, some empirical analyses of benefits and burden of social security in Japan were conducted. Specifically, we analyzed the social security services and the financial resources of social security such as income tax, consumption tax including excise tax, social insurance premium such as pension, medical care and long-term care. Analytical methods are diverse, but they make use of empirical analysis using data. By contributing not only to academic papers but also to newspaper articles, we were able to disclose our research results socially. In addition, Uemura and Adachi (2015) "Economic analysis of tax and social security burden" (Nihon Keizai Hyouronsha), one of the publications of this research, received the 2015 Best Monograph Award from The Institute of Tax Research and Literature.
