The Withering of the Welfare State de J. Connelly

The Withering of the Welfare State: Regression

J. Connelly

J. Hayward

Since the 1970s the public commitment to social solidarity between citizens through comprehensive provision of welfare has been eroded by the imperatives of international markets. In this volume the problems posed to public intervention are analyzed. The contributors compare and evaluate how different countries have dealt with these challenges.
