The Future of the Welfare State
No. 32 JANUARY 2013
What is the welfare state? What are social rights? What is the relationship between the welfare state and democracy? What are the main challenges facing the welfare state in the current framework of financial austerity and economic crisis? This book offers a brief and simple introduction to this subject, while at the same time suggesting three future scenarios: the end of the welfare state; everything staying the same; and its reorganisation. Three scenarios that could serve as a basis for public discussion on the future of the welfare state in our country.
