书目名称 | Social Policy in Western Europe and the USA, 1950–80 | 副标题 | An Assessment | 编辑 | Roger Girod (Professor),Patrick Laubier (Professor | 视频video | http://file.papertrans.cn/870/869811/869811.mp4 | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | This volume seeks to trace certain tendencies and developments in social policy in Western Europe and the United States. In the first, which is general, Professor Girod recalls the objectives of social policy as well as offering a number of scenarios or strategies for the future of social policy. The social policy philosophy of Schumpeter, Hayek and Röpke, and their current vitality, are traced by Professor de Luabier. Professor Delcourt, in his chapter on Social Policy - crisis or mutation?, presents a critical analysis of various trends in social policy and in particular the elitist philosophy of Hirschmann. The second part of the volume deals with particular national experiences: Switzerland by Professor Tschudi; Sweden by Dr. Hartmann; the United States by Professor Bénéton; and Italy by Professor Donati. The book broadly covers the diverse range of subject matter encompassed within the term ‘social policy‘ and should be of great value both to social policy practitioners as well as to those academics concerned with the fields of economics, sociology and political science. | 出版日期 | Book 1985 | 关键词 | Nation; philosophy; political science; service; social policy; sociology | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-349-07576-8 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-349-07578-2 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-349-07576-8 | copyright | International Institute for Labour Studies 1985 |

,Social Research and the Development of Social Policy Objectives, |
Roger Girod |
|
Abstract
Let us begin with a few examples of social policy measures. Afterwards, we shall have to consider what relations exist between the objectives at which such measures aim and social research or, to be more exact, what relations exist between social research and the development of these objectives.

,Three Forecasts for Our Time, |
Patrick de Laubier |
|
Abstract
Three exiled economists, reflecting during the war years on the probable economic and social conditions of the next generation, have handed down to us forecasts for our time. Two were Austrians, Joseph A. Schumpeter and Friedrich A. Hayek, then teaching at Harvard and the London School of Economics, and one a German, Wilhelm T. Röpke, teaching at the Graduate Institute of International Studies at Geneva. All three attached the highest importance to freedom, an ideal temporarily abandoned by their countries.

,Social Policy — Crisis or Mutation, |
Jacques Delcourt |
|
Abstract
Two complementary explanations of what some call the crisis of the Welfare State, and others call its change of character, are increasingly accepted. One lies in the now chronic imbalance between social expenditure and available receipts. The other may be deduced from the mounting criticism of the effectiveness of social policy as regards both delivery and redistribution and of what economists and sociologists call its “perverse” effects.

,Swiss Social Policy Since 1950, |
Hans-Peter Tschudi |
|
Abstract
The so-called labour question, a consequence of industrialisation, lies at the origin of social policy. In the nineteenth century large numbers of workers, living in extreme hardship, earned much too little to set anything aside for adversity or old age. While in rural areas the family could see after the needs of its poorer members, in towns workers were left to their own devices. These facts have been described often enough not to need repeating here. The economic and social conditions in Switzerland at the time were of course very similar to those in other industrial countries, even if they were not as bad as the conditions in England and the Ruhr, for example. The needs for workers’ protection and social security, consequently, were very similar too.

,Trends in the Social Policy Aims of the United States (1960–1980), |
Philippe Bénéton |
|
Abstract
There was a time when it might have been thought that the theme of equality would be submerged in the affluent society. In 1958, J. K. Galbraith noted in his book . that “few things are more evident in modern social history than the decline of interest in equality as an economic issue”. Yet in actual fact, in the 1960s and 1970s, it became a central concern of American intellectual and social life. The question of equality was fiercely argued out between experts and ideologists, mainly because it had become a problem of practical policy as a result of the determination of the political authorities to tackle certain inequalities as such, together with the social problem of poverty. “For the first time in American history, equality became a major object of government policy; and also for the first time, with perhaps the exception of the Freedmen’s Bureau of the Reconstruction period, governments not only made laws but constituted themselves instruments of egalitarian policy.”.

,Social Policy in Sweden (1950–1980), |
Jürgen Hartmann |
|
Abstract
Sweden has been known throughout the last 30 years as the “model of a welfare society”. Much commentary both in favour and against the general spreading of welfare benefits and the intervention of the public in the everyday lives of citizens has been published during this period. The defeat of the Social Democrats in the 1976 elections and the obvious economic problems within Sweden in the late 1970s caused a number of writers to question the “Swedish model”.

,Social Welfare and Social Services in Italy Since 1950, |
Pierpaolo Donati |
|
Abstract
This article presents a brief analysis of social policy in Italy since 1950, and deals in particular with policy concerning the social services.. First of all, it is necessary to describe the different stages in the historical development of this social policy, of which four may be distinguished in post-war Italy. They begin with the establishment of the Italian Republic, under whose Constitution the model of the welfare state already existing in other Western countries was adopted..
