Ecosocial Adaptation and the Care Professions
As climate change accelerates, it generates not only environmental disruption but a new form of multidimensional social risk - climate risk - unfolding across nested social, ecological, and institutional systems. This paper advances a systems-ecological perspective to conceptualize climate risk as a relational and stratified risk, disproportionately impacting marginalized communities. It then maps dominant adaptation frameworks - ecomodernism, po…
Social inclusion, welfare states, and Ecosocial adaptation
Climate change is an unequal crisis, with the greatest risks and fewest resources concentrated in the Global South. This study examines whether cross-national differences in social inclusion and welfare regimes explain variation in climate adaptation readiness and vulnerability. Using a multiply imputed panel of 173 countries (1995–2020), it applies Correlated Random Effects models to assess how inclusion and welfare regimes relate to adaptation …
A Critical Review of Conceptualisation and Measurement of Social Inclusion
We apply a synthesis review to revisit the concept, measurement, and operationalisation of social inclusion and exclusion in the context of comparative social policy, integrating the vast literature on the concepts, with the aim of elucidating a clearer understanding of the concepts for use by scholars and policymakers around the planet. In turn, we outline the conceptual development of the concepts, how they have been operationalised through soc…
Temporary Measures or Lasting Reform? Examining Gulf States’ Evolving Welfare Policies in Response to the Global Health Crisis
The global health crisis prompted Arabian Gulf states to implement extensive social protection measures to address public health and economic challenges. This study critically examines welfare reforms enacted by six Gulf countries – Saudi Arabia, UAE, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, and Oman – through the theoretical lenses of Welfare Regime Theory and Punctuated Equilibrium Theory. Initially, governments temporarily expanded exclusion-based welfare syst…
Contradictions of the Ecowelfare State
Global Trends in Social Inclusion and Social Inclusion Policy
As pressures build, this study can serve as a guidepost for scholars and policymakers to learn from global trends in social inclusion and social inclusion policy. Our systematic review of global trends in social inclusion and social inclusion policy points to the general expansion and retrenchment of social inclusion policy amid increasing social exclusion associated with trends such as globalisation and neoliberalism. In the absence of recent, d…
Welfare regime typologies
This study bridges the study of social inclusion with welfare regime theory. By linking social inclusion with welfare regimes, we establish a novel analytical framework for assessing global trends and national divergences in social inclusion based on a multidimensional view of the concept. While scholars have developed typologies for social inclusion and welfare regimes independent of each other, limited insights exist on how social inclusion rel…
Which Side (of the Balance Sheet) Are You On? Household Financial Resources and Participation in the 2020 Protests
The summer of 2020 was marked by widespread protests. Though research has often examined the predictors of protest participation, there exists little work examining the relationship between different types of wealth and protesting. Drawing on resource-based theories of protest participation and asset-based theories of civic engagement, we constructed regression models disentangling relationships between income, liquid assets, investment assets, h…
The (un)just transition in ecomodernist climate policy
The US Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 marks a monumental shift toward mitigating climate change and transitioning to a clean energy society. With disproportionate, adverse impacts of climate change on marginalized communities, we utilize a critical environmental justice framework to investigate how the policy structure may deepen social inequalities. While the climate policy invests in clean energy and includes provisions for marginalized commun…
Ecosocial policy and the social risks of climate change
As climate change progresses, natural hazards are projected to continue to increase in frequency and intensity, posing a new form of social risk, implicating both the welfare and environmental state and raising the salience of ecosocial policy as a mechanism to attend to the distributional effects of climate change mitigation and adaptation. This study posits a novel conceptual framework for ecosocial policy and offers the US ecosocial safety net…
Widowhood and Mental Health
This study examines the relationship between three common mental health disorders—anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder—in the first year of spousal bereavement and a myriad of social factors—including the security of health insurance and the presence of children at home—among those who have been widowed. We analyzed a novel survey of 503 widows who had participated in the Modern Widows’ Club Widows Empowerment Event. We then us…
