Book Synopsis Welfare State and Welfare Society by : William Alexander Robson
Download or read book Welfare State and Welfare Society written by William Alexander Robson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-07-20 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1976, Welfare State and Welfare Society breaks away from the prevailing notion that the welfare state is mainly concerned with the well-being of the entire nation. The book distinguishes the welfare state from the welfare society, and shows that there is often a yawning gulf between public policy and how people feel, think and behave. The book examines critically, the policies which have been adopted or advocated as relevant to a welfare state, and inquires how far the hopes and expectations centred on it have been realised.
Book Synopsis The Changing Meanings of the Welfare State by : Nils Edling
Download or read book The Changing Meanings of the Welfare State written by Nils Edling and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2019-01-02 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In discussions of economics, governance, and society in the Nordic countries, “the welfare state” is a well-worn analytical concept. However, there has been much less scholarly energy devoted to historicizing this idea beyond its postwar emergence. In this volume, specialists from Denmark, Finland, Sweden, Norway, and Iceland chronicle the historical trajectory of “the welfare state,” tracing the variable ways in which it has been interpreted, valued, and challenged over time. Each case study generates valuable historical insights into not only the history of Northern Europe, but also the welfare state itself as both a phenomenon and a concept.

Book Synopsis From Mutual Aid to the Welfare State by : David T. Beito
Download or read book From Mutual Aid to the Welfare State written by David T. Beito and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2003-06-19 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, more Americans belonged to fraternal societies than to any other kind of voluntary association, with the possible exception of churches. Despite the stereotypical image of the lodge as the exclusive domain of white men, fraternalism cut across race, class, and gender lines to include women, African Americans, and immigrants. Exploring the history and impact of fraternal societies in the United States, David Beito uncovers the vital importance they had in the social and fiscal lives of millions of American families. Much more than a means of addressing deep-seated cultural, psychological, and gender needs, fraternal societies gave Americans a way to provide themselves with social-welfare services that would otherwise have been inaccessible, Beito argues. In addition to creating vast social and mutual aid networks among the poor and in the working class, they made affordable life and health insurance available to their members and established hospitals, orphanages, and homes for the elderly. Fraternal societies continued their commitment to mutual aid even into the early years of the Great Depression, Beito says, but changing cultural attitudes and the expanding welfare state eventually propelled their decline.

Book Synopsis Historical Dictionary of the Welfare State by : Bent Greve
Download or read book Historical Dictionary of the Welfare State written by Bent Greve and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2014-03-06 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Definitions of the welfare state often focus on how and why a state intervenes in the economy and welfare of the individual citizen. A welfare state does not, however, have to mean state intervention; it may merely reflect the state’s restrictions and the demands of the labor market, families, and the rest of civil society. This book covers the history of the welfare state from Chancellor Otto von Bismarck’s reforms in Germany starting in 1883 to the present day. This third edition of Historical Dictionary of the Welfare State covers the history through a chronology, an introductory essay, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 400 hundred cross-referenced entries that focus on the definitions and concepts that are the most relevant, long lasting, and important concepts. It provides insights from major areas in social science, including sociology, economics, political science, and social work. This book is an excellent access point for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about the welfare state.
Book Synopsis The Welfare State East and West by : Richard Rose
Download or read book The Welfare State East and West written by Richard Rose and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1986-12-18 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unique, comparative examination of the different ways in which modern democratic societies provide welfare today, these essays focus on the welfare strategies and experiences of the U.S., Japan, Great Britain, Scandinavia, Germany, and Israel. While the objectives of welfare are common to each society, each has its own ideas about the best way for the state, the market, and the household to contribute to the welfare mix. With the economies of many countries under pressure, the question of the proper balance between domestic welfare spending and defense spending is often at the center of the debate. The essays on Japan provide new and useful insights into how a state--not normally considered a "welfare state"--manages to provide a wide array of successful welfare services.
Book Synopsis Repackaging the Welfare State by : Pranab Chatterjee
Download or read book Repackaging the Welfare State written by Pranab Chatterjee and published by N A S W Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the welfare state is unquestionably one of the noblest accomplishments of the 20th century, certain steps must be taken for its continued survival, including market participation and population planning. This path-breaking analysis of the welfare state examines the fundamental conflict existing in every modern industrial state between efforts to optimise efficiency and equality. Earlier studies of the welfare state relying on various single social science perspectives, led to disciplinary tunnel vision. This study corrects this myopia by offering an interdisciplinary approach to conceptualising a welfare state that balances a civil society, which provides caregiving to the vulnerable, with wealth-building activities.

Book Synopsis The Welfare Society - an Aim for Social Development by : Roar Sundby
Download or read book The Welfare Society - an Aim for Social Development written by Roar Sundby and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2016 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is the concept of the welfare society an aim for social development from a European perspective? The International Consortium for Social Development is an organization of practitioners, scholars and students in the human services that addresses this question. The concept of the welfare society is under constant transformation and pressure. The Nordic countries are identified as models for the welfare state system. However, a revised perspective on the concept includes a broader definition of the social production of well-being. The book investigates the relation with non-governmental bodies, civil society, and social commons to public services, and it places strong focus on the inclusion of disadvantaged groups.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a Welfare State to a Welfare Society situates its analysis of the welfare state in what the author calls the modernity debate: the conflict between ideas from the present and the past about the future. The clash between modernism, anti-modernism and postmodernism as "ways of seeing" and approaching social policy questions is a theme which runs through the text. The relevance of concepts such as post-Fordism, postemotionalism. communitarianism, stakeholding, globalization, andsocial exclusion for understanding the contemporary welfare debate is demonstrated in a very integrated analysis.
