Abstract:

This themed section brings together the disciplines of sociology, social work and social policy in order to examine the ways in which contemporary familial diversity is recognised in comparative welfare state regimes. Contributors interrogate the ways in which such diversity is supported in national legislation, policy developments and acknowledged in everyday social work practice. In doing so, the section examines if and how these demographic trends and sociological conceptualisations are reflected in comparative welfare state systems and/or policy related to family.

This introduction to the special issue “Societies under Stress” provides an intellectual context for the four articles that follow. The conferences at which the articles were presented brought together comparative welfare state researchers and scholars who work on crime and punishment to explore the links between social welfare and penal policy, particularly in social settings where neoliberal austerity or rising levels of criminal violence put pressure on these fields of social policy.

Abstract:

In the Indo-European Myths at the start we get the golden age. Here we get the highest level of security, wellbeing and welfare. The golden age is followed by the silver age, the bronze and finally the iron age. These ages are characterized by the introduction of more and more science, education and technology. The more of these the less security, wellbeing and welfare. This view is very explicit in the Greek and Roman mythology. In the work of J. J. Rousseau we find the same ideas. In the 14th century we see the reversal. It is believed that science, education and technology is the basic sour

Upon learning that John C.

The Budapest-born social scientist had already been recognized as a first-rank contributor to non-cooperative game theory for some time (see, e.g., Gul 1997). However, as many readers of this journal will be aware, Harsanyi first contributed to welfare economics, not game theory. More importantly, he was philosophically minded and accordingly ha

Abstract:

The age profile of a country influences the organization of healthcare arrangements for older people. In southern European countries, the low performance of the welfare state and traditional family-oriented culture have led to an informal and gendered model of care, with women often responsible for the (unpaid) caregiving work. However, the increasing female participation in the labour market challenges these welfare regimes, prompting a shift in family responsibilities outside the family. Moreover, in response to the growing need for long-term care workers, some European countries have relied

The last decades have seen a shift towards activation policies in welfare states, such as the introduction programme for refugees in Norway, a qualification programme that seeks to prepare refugees for the labour market. In the last decade, the programme has placed further focus on refugees’ duties rather than their rights, as it had previously done. This article examines the strategies that work counsellors in the introduction programme use to ‘activate’ and assist newly arrived refugees as they prepare to enter the Norwegian labour market.

AbstractThe UK social security safety net for those who are out of work due to ill health or disability has experienced significant change, most notably the abolition of Incapacity Benefit (IB) and the introduction of Employment and Support Allowance (ESA). These changes have been underpinned by the assumption that many recipients are not sufficiently sick or disabled to ‘deserve’ welfare benefits – claims that have been made in the absence of empirical data on the health of recipients.

Lone mothers make up a quarter of all families with children in the United Kingdom and have been one of the key target groups for activation policies for the past two decades.

Most lone mothers are now required to seek work, or to be in work, in order to be eligible for state support. These developments place self-responsibility at the center of welfare reform and paid work as the core of self-responsibility. The focus is very much on the individuals and their lab

Abstract:

Introduction: The primary care system in Flanders (Belgium) was substantially reoriented and restructured. At local level Primary Care Zones (PCZs) were installed to support better coordination and connect care and welfare organizations with local authorities. The province of Limburg counts 8 active PCZs and is one of the five provinces of Flanders. The province boasts an interesting mining history, forests and historic towns. Collaboration and exchange between primary care actors and knowledge institutions (universities of applied sciences and universities) offers opportunities to translate a

Abstract:

This article deals with company welfare and social work ethics. If social work is concerned with welfare and distributional issues, we would assume company welfare to be an issue of great relevance to social workers, so why do we not come across any social workers in our fieldwork? This calls for the simple question “where do social workers work?” or rather “how come social workers do not work in private companies?” We explore into the combination of social work and private companies with special reference to social work ethics to discuss private companies as a job arena for social workers.

Abstract:

Introduction: The ContactDoctor app enables citizen-centric, interdisciplinary and cross-sector video-consultations to improve quality and integration of care and provide equitable access to healthcare. Background: Video-consultations with healthcare professionals, incl. general practitioners (GP), accelerated in 2020-2021 to limit the spread of Covid-19. During that time, the app ContactDoctor was rapidly developed in a successful public-private collaboration. A national project was initiated to support wider implementation of ContactDoctor, where the goal is 60/98 municipalities

Abstract:

Introduction/Background: An ongoing realist evaluation of the implementation of the program [Amsterdam Customization method] in social welfare in Amsterdam (NL), focussing on multi-problem families, revealed among others, that participating organisations within the program tend to focus on their own tasks, without shared decision making. This becomes extremely clear in the context of safety for the children: parents are not seen as partners to guarantee this safety but as causer of the problem. And this view from the perspective of one organisation seems to diminish all efforts to offer the pa

Abstract:

Introduction: There is an increasing need for interprofessional collaboration (IPC) in the community, in order to ensure personcentered care for those with a care need. In Belgium, the Flemish government committed to support this through the creation of Primary Care Zones (PCZ) and a pilot-program of Caring Neighbourhoods (CN). The PCZ's mission is to get the diverse group of primary care professionals at the community level to work together. CN’s work on this community level and aim to allow residents to stay in their familiar surroundings for as long as possible and have low-threshold access

The results show that the frequency of accidents varies according to the years and the years 2011 and 2015 have the highest number of accidents at work. In contrast, the minimum number of accidents was recorded during the 2001-2005 period. Similarly, this frequency varies according to th
