Recenzii
“This new volume brings a fresh perspective. . . and makes an impressive contribution to our knowledge in this important area.”
"A fascinating volume exploring religion, gender, minorities, and welfare in Europe, offering significant insights into the link between values, welfare, and social change."
"This is a timely and authoritative text—fit for students and experts alike—which builds on the insights of the WaVE research to shed new light on gender issues and minority religious groups in Europe. The comparative perspective encompassing diverse national settings provides an important backdrop for analyzing some of the key social welfare implications of an increasingly culturally diverse continent."
“A fascinating, complex, rich book rooted in deep research and providing an innovative and revealing new analysis in the intersection of welfare, women and minorities.”
