This volume seeks to trace certain tendencies and developments in
social policy in Western Europe and the United States. In the
first, which is general, Professor Girod recalls the objectives of
social policy as well as offering a number of scenarios or
strategies for the future of social policy. The social policy
philosophy of Schumpeter, Hayek and Roepke, and their current
vitality, are traced by Professor de Luabier. Professor Delcourt,
in his chapter on Social Policy - crisis or mutation?, presents a
critical analysis of various trends in social policy and in
particular the elitist philosophy of Hirschmann. The second part of
the volume deals with particular national experiences: Switzerland
by Professor Tschudi; Sweden by Dr. Hartmann; the United States by
Professor Beneton; and Italy by Professor Donati. The book broadly
covers the diverse range of subject matter encompassed within the
term 'social policy' and should be of great value both to social
policy practitioners as well as to those academics concerned with
the fields of economics, sociology and political science.
