This book was released on 2021-07-14 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Submitted Assignment from the year 2019 in the subject Business economics - Economic Policy, grade: 80.00, University of Malta (Department of Social Policy), course: B.A. (Hons) Social Wellbeing Studies, language: English, abstract: The social security system is aimed towards supporting residents by providing them with financial support as well as maintaining their overall wellbeing and protecting them from poverty. In the Maltese scenario this system is regulated under Chapter 318 of the Laws of Malta. Social security benefits are important in society as they support residents and vulnerable groups from becoming financially deprived. Yet, I personally feel that more monitoring needs to be adopted in order to ensure that such benefits are really going to people who need them rather than to those who do not. The government spends a lot of money in this area and residents contribute to be entitled for certain benefits, so it is important to ensure that the right people are receiving these benefits.

Download or read book Migration and Social Protection in Europe and Beyond (Volume 1) written by Jean-Michel Lafleur and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-10-30 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This first open access book in a series of three volumes provides an in-depth analysis of social protection policies that EU Member States make accessible to resident nationals, non-resident nationals and non-national residents. In doing so, it discusses different scenarios in which the interplay between nationality and residence could lead to inequalities of access to welfare. Each chapter maps the eligibility conditions for accessing social benefits, by paying particular attention to the social entitlements that migrants can claim in host countries and/or export from home countries. The book also identifies and compares recent trends of access to welfare entitlements across five policy areas: health care, unemployment, family benefits, pensions, and guaranteed minimum resources. As such this book is a valuable read to researchers, policy makers, government employees and NGO’s.

This book was released on 2018-11-20 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To truly capture an unbiased and fair account of gender inequality in Malta, I suppose a non-Maltese who knows Malta well, is best equipped to achieve this. My friend Cyrus Vakili-Zad, after nearly ten years of extensive and intensive research, has produced an in-depth study of this sensitive yet provocative topic; the status of women in Malta in a rigid male dominated society. Cyrus and his wife, Forough Hessabi, lived in Malta for several years. They experienced daily Maltese life first hand and grew to love the Island Archipelago, so much so that Cyrus has since written several books and articles on various aspects of Maltese social policy. My parents left Sliema, Malta in 1951; I was three years of age. However since 1968 I have been back to the Islands over thirty times. Although I did not grow up on the Island I am able to offer a Maltese perspective on the subject of this book. While editing his book I was able to relate and confirm many aspects that he has so studiously covered. In an impartial manner Cyrus has effectively written this book chronicling the "non-advancement" of Maltese women. Women continue to be restricted to being house wives, mothers and care givers (to both their children and parents). Moreover, finding a female in a senior position in the civil service, business or in politics is an extreme rarity. The first part of the book deals specifically with "Gender equality and the Welfare State" under sub-heading "Malta-I." Each chapter is extensively supported by Cyrus' research, individuals he has referred or spoken to and institutions he has contacted. He also studied "family friendly" European models to discern which would be the best to use in Malta. He found that Sweden and France have made the greatest headway in achieving gender equality. Cyrus has further exposed the extent of gender inequality in Malta by showing how the Roman Catholic Church, the two main political parties and large domestic corporations have also effectively kept women "in their place." In "Malta II," Cyrus provides specific examples of male dominance within the aforementioned institutions and organizations. In the last few years some advancement has been made, however it will take many years before the inequality is balanced. This will depend on the seriousness and effectiveness of the Government (Political Party) and the importance it places on improving this situation. One encouraging factor and glimmer of hope is when I met with Her Excellency Marie Louise Coleiro Preca, the President of the Republic of Malta. During our lengthy meeting in July 2014, Her Excellency exhibited a sincere interest in this topic and many other subjects related to the betterment of the general population. It is the responsibility of those in power (i.e. the Church, Political Parties, Big Business, etc.) to stop offering superficial solutions and promises, as these will not rectify the situation. Anyone who is serious about resolving this complex matter cannot find a better resource than this book. Malta is in the midst of its Third Great Siege - The Male Dominated Society; and this book would serve as a pivotal tool to overcoming this all-pervasive problem. Richard S.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Selected Issues paper assesses the marginal impact of promoting inclusive growth in Malta. The paper uses a multi-country simulation model, the IMF’s Flexible System of Global Models calibrated for Malta, is used to analyze the macroeconomic impacts of ongoing and potential future reforms. Three different policies are analyzed, namely: increasing childcare and after care benefits; extending working lives; and upskilling the labor force. The model shows that the reduction of absolute poverty has been accompanied by rising inequality. The simulation evaluates the macroeconomic impact of introducing free childcare, which is the actual government policy since 2015. Simulations show that policies that are primarily aimed at improving social inclusion also end up boosting potential output, thereby mitigating the fiscal cost of such policies in the long term. Recent declines in poverty rate can partly be ascribed to the cycle, however, recent structural reforms likely have had a significant impact on growth.

Book excerpt: Many social policies of the 1960s and 1970s, designed to overcome poverty and provide a decent standard of living for all Americans, ran into trouble in the 1980s with politicians, with social scientists, and with the American people. Here Nathan Glazer looks back at what went wrong, arguing that our social policies, although targeted effectively on some problems, ignored others that are equally important. Glazer's knowledge and judgment, distilled in this book, will be a source of advice and wisdom for citizens and policymakers alike.

This book was released on 2016-07-20 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No two markets for voluntary health insurance (VHI) are identical. All differ in some way because they are heavily shaped by the nature and performance of publicly financed health systems and by the contexts in which they have evolved. This volume contains short structured profiles of markets for VHI in 34 countries in Europe. These are drawn from European Union member states plus Armenia Iceland Georgia Norway the Russian Federation Switzerland and Ukraine. The book is aimed at policy-makers and researchers interested in knowing more about how VHI works in practice in a wide range of contexts. Each profile written by one or more local experts identifies gaps in publicly-financed health coverage describes the role VHI plays outlines the way in which the market for VHI operates summarises public policy towards VHI including major developments over time and highlights national debates and challenges. The book is part of a study on VHI in Europe prepared jointly by the European Observatory on Health Systems and Policies and the WHO Regional Office for Europe. A companion volume provides an analytical overview of VHI markets across the 34 countries.

Download or read book Malta in the European Union written by Mark Harwood and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-13 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Malta has bucked the trend of its EU Mediterranean neighbours in many ways. This smallest of EU states barely dipped into recession during the global financial crisis and remains a stable member of the Eurozone whilst also having one of the lowest infringement rates and highest transposition of EU law records amongst the 28 member states. Providing the first comprehensive study of Malta's complex road to EU membership this book looks at the impact of membership on the country's political structures and processes and explains the principal factors that have conditioned the country's Europeanization experience. Reflecting Malta's unique and often contentious road to membership, the book explores the historical context and outlines how Maltese processes and policies have changed since membership and whether a causative link exists between these changes and Malta's membership of the EU. A wide range of primary and secondary sources facilitate the study complemented by a series of interviews with a broad range of Malta's political and social actors as well as individuals from EU institutions. This depth of analysis enables a holistic view of Malta's first decade of EU membership and helps establish the fundamental characteristics of Malta's unique Europeanization experience.
