Book Description
Social policy encompasses all the regulations by which a society seeks to improve the living conditions of its members. Carsten G. Ullrich explains social policy from a sociological perspective – so it is not about the economic, but about the social causes and consequences of the welfare state. Using central problems such as poverty, inequality and social security, he discusses the most important social effects of the welfare state and the importance of social security for the “social citizens”. The problems associated with the design of social security systems and the future opportunities of the welfare state are also discussed.
