Description:
" Review 'The Welfare State and Life Transitions is a major contribution towards a new generation of research on welfare regimes. It reveals the complex and dynamic character of welfare systems and their varying implications for different social groups. Drawing together evidence from nine countries with contrasting welfare systems, it underlines the need for fine grained analysis of the impact of social policies at successive life course transitions for a rigorous evaluation of the quality of welfare protection. As well as providing a rich source of information about the nature and effects of the welfare regimes examined, it will help to set the research agenda of the future.' - Duncan Gallie, Nuffield College, Oxford and Foreign Secretary (and ex-officio Vice-President) British Academy, UK 'The Welfare State and Life Transitions presents a novel assessment of social policy in European countries. This collection of nine country studies neatly melds two distinct lines of social scientific inquiry: comparative welfare state scholarship and life-course research. Focusing on the interplay between structural and individual factors, this volume demonstrates that welfare states are not homogeneous entities; instead, they provide packages of policies that support some life transitions more than others.' - Janet C. Gornick, City University of New York, Graduate Center, US '... By focusing on passages from education to employment, between family formation and work, during work careers and from employment to retirement, the book succeeds in highlighting to what extent the various welfare state regimes manage to compensate social inequalities between and within cohorts. The editors' do an admirable job of synthesizing the country reports by showing that linking the analysis of welfare regimes and life course patterns enriches our understanding of the shaping of female and male biographies in modern societies.' - Walter R. Heinz, University of Bremen, Germany About the Author Edited by Dominique Anxo, Linnaeus University, Sweden, Gerhard Bosch, University of Duisburg-Essen, Germany and Jill Rubery, University of Manchester, UK "
