First published in 1985, this book analyses social welfare in the
major countries of Asia, at that time. For each country it
considers the ideological framework underlying the social welfare
system and describes the historical development of both the system
and the political and socio-economic context. Contributions examine
the nature of the different parts of the welfare system, surveying
social security, personal social services, and the treatment of the
following key target groups: the aged; those with disabilities and
handicaps; children and youth; disadvantaged families; the
unemployed; and the sick and injured. Each chapter concludes with
an assessment of the effectiveness of the system considered.
