Welfare state and its applications
Katharina Bluhm
Kommentar
The existence of large welfare states as a result of industrialization and class struggle is a prominent feature of Europe to this day. This explains why welfare state chauvinism is a specific feature of European right-wing populism. Different types of regimes have emerged that have created path dependency. Despite European integration, social policy remains a core task of national states and plays a crucial role in the legitimation of democracy. The seminar will explore the drivers of the diversity of welfare state development in Europe and the main triggers of change. We will start with Xaver Kaufmann's concept of welfare production and Esping-Andersen's typology, its critics, adaptations and extensions (e.g. the role of religion and gender and the debate on a South European model, Central Eastern Europe, the role of housing policy). We will then examine the main trends of change and their conceptualization. The seminar will conclude with a debate on the pros and cons of a basic income. Schließen
