Book Overview

Over the last decade, changing family life and increasing fiscal constraints on welfare expenditures have forced industrialized nations to reconsider how they approach social protection. Faced with ﬁscal and demographic changes, many countries have been struggling to develop innovative policy responses. Some involve targeting beneﬁts in order to shrink existing program commitments, to focus welfare expenditures on those most in need, and to give social welfare systems more ﬂexibility in redirecting available resources to meet emerging demands.
