This book examines the ways in which the welfare state impacts
levels and distributions of political participation and democratic
support in Western democracies. Going beyond the traditional
contextual accounts of political behaviour, which primarily focus
on political institutions or the socio-economic climate, this book
looks specifically at the impact of public policy on a variety of
political behaviours and attitudes. Drawing on the theoretical
insights from the policy feedback approach, the author argues and
empirically demonstrates that generous social policy offerings can
not only foster democratic citizenship by promoting a more
inclusive political culture, but are most beneficial to citizens
who are otherwise excluded from political life in many other
societies. This book will appeal most to scholars in the fields of
political science and sociology who are especially interested in
the welfare state, public policy, political sociology, and
inequality.
