Throughout Europe income support for the poor has become highly
controversial. It is often assumed to be not the answer to, but the
cause of social exclusion, and is increasingly believed to give
rise to welfare dependency This book contributes to a more complex
understanding of welfare state regimes and welfare recipients in
contemporary Europe. Describing social assistance "careers" in
different national and urban contexts, it documents the strong
interplay between personal biographies and policy patterns - a
particularly useful perspective which compliments the more
structural, top-down approach of much international work in social
policy "Social Assistance Dynamics in Europe" compares: a range of
northern and southern European countries (Sweden, Germany, France,
Italy, Spain and Portugal); focuses on the actual working of their
policies: their set of actors; cultural background; implementation;
and uses a methodological approach, which combines longitudinal
analysis with qualitative research Academics and students of
welfare and poverty, policy makers and social policy evaluators in
the public, private and non profit sectors should find this book
useful.
