Item description from seller

This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -¿Enabling Social Europe¿ examines how the paradigm of the ¿enabling welfare state¿ might offer a new perspective for European social policy in the decades to come. The ¿enabling¿ concept is perceived as going beyond that of mere ¿activation¿, thus also embracing policies aimed at increasing personal autonomy, individual responsibility and social inclusion by endowing individuals with the resources and capabilities needed to manage and balance their life courses in a better way. The study is distinguished by a unique collaboration of social and economic policy experts coming from a wide range of disciplines: economics, law, sociology, political science, and philosophy. The authors seek to shed new light on whether European social policy ought to play a role in the future and, if so, what sort of role that could be. They convincingly argue that despite an implicit normative consensus on the ¿European social model¿, there is still room for a multifaceted world in which welfare regimes can maintain their own path-dependent ways of achieving a fair and just society with a high level of welfare for all. The empirical part of the book contains an appraisal of policies and reforms with a view to the ¿enabling welfare state¿ approach in four important policy areas: health care, old-age security, family policy, and poverty prevention. Within each sector, the authors compare the policies and practices of two countries attributable to different regime types: Germany and the United Kingdom, Poland and Germany, Finland and Estonia, and Belgium and Denmark. This book is highly recommendable not only for scholars and policymakers active in this field, but also for students of welfare and labour economics, sociology, social policy, political science and law.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 412 pp. Englisch.…
