The (European) welfare state as well as the political space of "the
social" is currently being reorganised in a fundamental way. This
has major implications for any attempt to contribute to a more just
or even emancipatory way of shaping "the social." The authors
discuss what the Capabilities Approach (CA) may contribute to this
attempt. Rather than assessing the philosophical foundation of this
approach, "Shaping the Social" critically discusses the potentials
and pitfalls of analysing social and labour-market policy and in
particular social services from a capabilities perspective. From
the Contents: * Democracy and the Social - Theoretical foundations
* Theorising Social Policy - A Capabilities perspective * Assessing
Social Policy - What the Capabilities Approach may provide The
