Within the ever-changing global map of migrations, Southern Europe
has come to occupy a strategic position. As Europe struggles to
control immigration from the developing world, the EU's southern
flank is perceived as the weak flank of Fortress Europe. This book
examines the many facets of Southern Europe's new immigration - the
diverse roles played by immigrants in the labour market, issues of
social and spatial exclusion, the slow evolution of policy, and
wider strategic concerns of security and geopolitics.
Katrougalos and Lazardis examine the social welfare state of the main four Southern European countries: Spain, Italy, Portugal, and Greece. They conduct an overall system analysis of the welfare state in Southern Europe which challenges the prevalent Ferrera model. Additionally, they present a detailed outlook of policies adopted in the fields of employment, migration, health, social security, pensions, and gender-family issues.
