First published between 1985 and 1992, this set of books analyses
social welfare in Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Latin America,
highly developed economies and socialist countries at the time.
Each title considers the ideological framework underlying the
social welfare system for each country and describes the historical
development of both the system and the political and socio-economic
context. Each chapter looks at the structure and administration of
the systems in place and how these are financed. 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. This set will be of interest to those studying
international social welfare and development.
