Social policy in East and West finds itself today in the middle of
a fundamental transition. The former communist countries of Central
and Eastern Europe and the successor states to the former Soviet
Union are attempting to create the institutions needed for a modern
market economy and a modern democratic welfare state. At the same
time, the mature welfare states of Europe are struggling to solve
the contemporary financial crisis of their systems of social
entitlements. Because of fundamental economic and demographic
trends, these systems will become increasingly difficult to sustain
over the coming decades. The contributors overwhelmingly agree that
it would be mistaken policy to simply copy the institutions of
Western welfare states to the eastern economies in transition.
Instead one can learn much from the experience gathered over the
past half century in Western welfare states.
