This book analyses the main problems in the functioning of the
welfare state and possible actions for its reform. Focusing on the
European Union, it looks at the achievements of and challenges to
the welfare state as we enter the 21st century. The authors
consider the general problem of redistribution and how to make it
more efficient, by reducing huge benefits and tax disincentives
that individuals encounter in different life periods or life
choices. In addition, they analyse issues such as: * economic
effects of the welfare state * mechanisms for improving incentives
in the welfare state * implications of Economic and Monetary Union
for the welfare state * options in pension funding * impact of
ageing on the pensions systems in the European Union * detailed
projections of social expenditure The Welfare State in Europe will
be essential reading for those working in the areas of public
administration and finance, European studies, social policy,
economics and political science. In its provision of policy
suggestions it will also be welcomed by policymakers and government
advisers.
