The book Rethinking European Welfare offers a comprehensive and innovative perspective on the study of social policy in Europe. It explores new methodologies for analyzing European welfare systems and their implications for the future. By delving into various aspects of welfare, the reader gains insights into the complexities and intricacies of how these systems operate and affect the lives of individuals within them.
In addition to focusing on traditional aspects of social policy, Rethinking European Welfare addresses a variety of challenging and often overlooked issues that have not received adequate attention in the field. This multifaceted approach encourages readers to consider the broader implications of welfare policies and their impact on society. The book aims to provoke thought and discussion around the evolving nature of welfare systems in Europe, especially in the context of the European Union's developing social regime.
This work is particularly relevant for students and professionals in fields such as social policy, public administration, sociology, politics, and cultural studies. By engaging with the themes presented in Rethinking European Welfare, readers will be better equipped to understand the dynamics of welfare systems and their influence on both individual lives and broader societal structures.
`This is an important and timely book not least in considering the EU′s inchoate social regime alongside established national systems, that draws attentionto the subtle, yet often neglected, ways in which welfare systems unwittingly distort the lives of their beneficiaries′ - Political Studies
