Abstract:

‘CRISIS? WHAT CRISIS?’, THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER was reported to have replied to a question concerning the alleged crisis in sterling. In the case of the welfare state it might seem that the appropriate response would be ‘Which crisis? ’ since there are several on the menu - fiscal crisis, legitimacy crisis, crisis of ungovernability . Left, Right and Centre have become convinced that there is a crisis. This is after a period of history which had seen an unprecedented rise in the standard of living of the vast majority of the population living in what are normally regarded as welfare st

Abstract:

The processes of formation and development of the welfare state institute and its models are being researched. The principal scientific approaches to the understanding of the welfare state phenomenon have been analyzed. The role of the welfare state as a legal constitutional institute has been grounded. The discourse of the welfare state in the history of the global and Ukrainian political thought has been presented. The peculiarities of foreign models of the welfare state caused by modernization processes have been elucidated. The typology of modern social models has been sugge

Abstract:

Histories of American welfare have been stories about the state. Like Walter Trattner's widely read From Poor Law to Welfare State, now in its sixth edition, they have offered a narrative about the slow but steady expansion and elaboration of state and federal protections granted to poor and working people, and have usually done so by charting increases in government expenditures, by documenting the institutionalization of welfare bureaucracies, and by tracing rises or declines in poverty, unemployment, and other aggregate measures of well-being. This has been the case even in more critical ac

This article investigates the historical, theoretical, and methodological foundations of the welfare state in key countries of the Romano-Germanic (civil law) legal tradition, with a focus on Germany, France, Italy, and Spain.

The analysis employs a comparative legal-historical methodology, addressing symbolic representations of law in the construction of the welfa

Thanks in part to the impeachment of President Bill Clinton, the popular reputation of Congress has recently plum meted to perhaps an all-time low.As the Senate deliberated in late January 1999, Jay Leno captured what seemed to be widespread disgust with Capitol Hill. He cracked, “We’ve reached a point where Congress does not affect anyone’s life, so we look at it as entertainment. It’s like the Jerry Springer show, except everyone has a law degree. They can’t fix health care, they can’t fix Social Security, so we look at them to provide a few laughs on a daily basis” (Providence Journal 1999)

Abstract:

Abstract The break with austerity policies in Portugal, carried out after 2015 by a Socialist government supported in parliament by parties on its left, famously named the “contraption”, has gained widespread attention throughout Europe and beyond. This is primarily because the “reversal” of austerity has been successful, restoring social rights and living standards while maintaining the state’s financial equilibrium. The emergence of this innovative political solution cannot be understood without reference to the history of the Portuguese welfare state and the debates surrounding its future.

Abstract This article examines how the UK welfare state was significantly retrenched, reshaped, and selectively expanded in the era of austerity and Covid. It charts reforms to childcare, working age welfare, and pensions, relating these to changing electoral coalitions, the ideas and agency of political actors, and the challenges thrown up by the financial crisis, the pandemic, and the cost-of-living crisis. Distinct phases of welfare reform can be discerned, related to shifting coalitions of political support and the impact of socio-economic shocks. We situate our political-economic analysis

Drawing on recent research on lived welfare state from a history of experience perspective, this article aims to contribute to the further exploration of the education-welfare state nexus. First, experience as a historical concept is discussed in a historiographical context from the 1960s onwards. Second, the concept of lived welfare and the conceptualization of education as lived welfare are explicated. Third, concrete examples of education as lived welfare elucidate the history of experience approach to children and the welfare state. Children’s encounters with their educators and the school

Abstract From the era of enslavement to contemporary structures of debt, governing entities and capital have denied state support to Puerto Ricans, demanding instead that payments flow from the archipelago first to Spain and then to the United States. While the US welfare state is notoriously stingy, even its limited benefits have never gone to Puerto Ricans on an equal basis to residents of the states. How, then, have Puerto Ricans been perennially accused of receiving too much welfare? This article argues that Puerto Rico marks the vanishing point of the coherence of the discourse of the “we

Abstract:

Butterfield's well-known warning to historians may hold important lessons for the analysis of the contemporary welfare state. In his view, the Whig historians distorted history by interpreting the past in terms of the present. They allowed themselves to become “dispensers of moral judgments” by dividing the world into the friends and enemies of progress. Many contemporary explanations of welfare states pose the same problem, not so much because social science intentionally excludes the past, but because the search for rigorous empirical explanations of our present choices and accomplishments i

Abstract:

This paper considers the question of what influence J.M. Keynes had on the evolution of the welfare state after the Second World War. First it weighs whether his non-utilitarian approach to economic theory and welfare measurement had an impact on the growth of the welfare state. Then it considers whether the influence came through Keynes's advocacy of deficit spending. After rejecting both of these explanations the role of full employment in sustaining the welfare state is weighed. The paper concludes with a consideration of what might be necessary in preserving the welfare state in the face o

Abstract:

George Boyer’s The Winding Road to the Welfare State, which traces the shift in Britain from the early nineteenth-century Poor Law to the post-1945 welfare state, is strongest and most useful in its analysis of the labor market in relation to poverty and insecurity and in its precise quantification of wages, poverty, insecurity, and public relief. It is much weaker when discussing how politics and public opinion shaped social policies; overlooking important areas of British state welfare, the book focuses upon unemployment and old-age policies. Nor is the book really about “Britain.” Most of t

The history of the Welfare State has largely been told as a metropolitan story severed from a wider global history of empire.

Abstract:

Abstract The history of the British welfare state was once written as a story of progress from small and unsympathetic beginnings in the early nineteenth century. This paper argues that versions of the demographic, medical, and welfare issues of that period still affect us in comparable ways, two centuries after the infamous New Poor Law of 1834. The history of the British welfare state is captured here by examining three periods of its accelerated development in the 1830s, 1900s, and 1940s, and in the work of key thinkers and policy-makers associated with each of these phases: Jeremy Bentham
