This book provides the first comprehensive information and detailed
data on the welfare systems of all twenty-seven EU member states
and offers the reader an invaluable introduction and basis for
comparative welfare research. The introductory chapter summarizes
the actual debate about welfare states and welfare (state) regimes,
gives an overview on current welfare (state) research and analyses
the main recent developments necessitating a new focus on European
Welfare Systems. The twenty-seven chapters on the welfare systems
of the member states are written on the basis of a common structure
by experts from the individual states. An additional chapter
analyses the current social and welfare policies of the EU and
focuses on the interplay and limits between European and national
social policies. Two concluding chapters provide (a) a first
comparative analysis on the basis of all twenty-seven European
Welfare Systems and (b) a theoretical reflection both arguing for
and venturing the idea of politically limited pluralism in European
welfare politics.
