Fiscal welfare
Le recours aux dispositifs fiscaux dérogatoires est un élément structurant des politiques sociales, à la fois d’un point de vue institutionnel, économique et politique. Or cet aspect, largement étudié dans le cas des États-Unis, constitue un point aveugle de l’analyse comparée de l’État social. Nous dressons un état des connaissances théoriques et empiriques sur le fiscal welfare en Europe et nous analysons les raisons spécifiques au contexte eur…

From the hidden welfare state to the hidden part of welfare state reform
This article argues that fiscal welfare in Europe not only forms part of the “hidden welfare state” (Howard, ), but also constitutes an important yet understudied—and therefore hidden—element of welfare state reform. Using the example of France, and relying both on available data and on an exhaustive database of social tax expenditures (STEs) compiled for 2014, the article begins by providing an overview of the structure of STEs in France (sectio…
Financing the welfare state and the politics of taxation
This chapter discusses the main determinants of the financing needs of welfare systems. It turns to the different sources of revenue and patterns of welfare state funding in the advanced industrial nations. The chapter analyses the politics of taxation and financing trends in the mature welfare states. It addresses the impact of the different financing techniques upon employment and economic growth and upon the political legitimacy, and reforms p…
Fiscal welfare in Europe
This article offers a reflection on how integrating fiscal welfare into welfare state research can shed light on some subtle, yet important, transformations of welfare states and social citizenship in Europe. We begin by clarifying the concepts of fiscal welfare and social tax expenditures (STEs), by reviewing and critically assessing the various related concepts found in the literature. We also map out the empirical knowledge currently available…
A Normative Foundation for the Social Investment Approach
The SIA has been criticized for its productivist view of social policy and one-sided emphasis on economic returns. Indeed, it is fair to say that the social dimension of social investment has been paid lip service both in terms of policy developments and in academic research. In fact, it may be that one of the weaknesses of the SIA is its lack of clear normative underpinning or theory of social justice against which to develop a well-founded eval…
Fonder l’investissement social d’un point de vue normatif
L’intensité des débats à propos de l’investissement social montre que celui-ci est un concept inabouti. L’un des enjeux cruciaux est de préciser ses fondements normatifs afin de dépasser une vision purement productiviste, qui le réduit à l’amélioration du capital humain et des compétences des travailleurs. Toutefois, si l’investissement social est mis en perspective avec la théorie des capabilités d’Amartya Sen, il peut redonner du sens aux notio…
The Political Economy of Household Services in Europe
This edited volume assesses from a variety of perspectives the policies introduced to support the development of household services across Europe. It highlights the impact of these costly policies on
Political Economy of Household Services in Europe
Servants for the Knowledge-Based Economy? The Political Economy of Domestic Services in Europe
Over the past two decades, many countries across Europe have set up schemes to subsidize the demand for domestic services. This article suggests that these policy developments reflect a new economic strategy linked to the development of the service-based economy in coordinated market economies, as well as a new ideological orientation regarding the public sector and the role of the State in providing welfare. Specifically, the article aims to con…
Beyond the welfare state as we knew it?
The twentieth century may be called the century of the welfare state. It saw the emergence, expansion and maturation of the welfare state as we know it. Some have claimed that these developments represent a ‘growth to limits’ (Flora, 1986) and in a way this communicates a vision that we, at the turn of the century, were about to see the end of history, or at least the end of the welfare state evolution. However, we have learnt from the first deca…
Social investment
This chapter concludes that, with few exceptions, European welfare states have not really implemented a social investment perspective. The Nordic countries come closest to embracing the social investment paradigm, while a few other countries (notably the Netherlands and the UK) have made partial moves in the social investment direction, but along quite different lines. Indeed, one can identify two main ways of implementing a social investment str…
Towards A Social Investment Welfare State?Ideas, Policies and Challenges
Since the late 1990s, new strategies concerning the role and shape of welfare states have been formulated, many of which are guided by a logic of social investment. This book maps out this new perspective and assesses both its achievements and shortcomings. In doing so, it provides a critical analysis of social investment ideas and policies and opens up for discussion many of Europe’s most pressing concerns—such as an aging population, the curren…
Beyond the welfare state as we knew it?
This chapter traces the different approaches to social policy as they have developed over time, starting with the early origins of the social investment perspective in the ‘productive social policy’ approach put forward in Sweden in the 1930s, before turning to a brief analysis of the Keynesian and neo-liberal eras of social policy. It suggests that the social investment perspective may represent a new, emerging social and economic policy paradig…

Genre et action publique
Bien qu’il s’agisse d’un ouvrage collectif rassemblant six contributions rédigées par 11 auteurs sur des thèmes en apparence très variés, ce livre présente une grande cohérence d’ensemble grâce à la réflexion collective approfondie qui a été menée (cet ouvrage est le fruit de trois années de travail collectif) autour d’une problématique commune déclinée sur différents terrains. Ce faisant, cet ouvrage se livre à une double réflexion théorique. Il…
From Subsidiarity to ‘Free Choice’
This chapter contains sections titled: Introduction Characterizing Bismarckian Welfare Systems Trajectories of Reform in Care Policies Conclusion: From Labour-shedding to Labour-cheapening Acknowledgements Notes References
From Subsidiarity to ‘Free Choice’
This article analyses the patterns of reform in care policies in Bismarckian welfare systems since the early 1980s. Based on a comparison of France, Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands, the article shows that these reforms share similar logics and trajectories, which can be explained by the shared conservative and corporatist traits of Bismarckian labour markets and welfare state institutions and their impact on labour market adjustment possibil…

Le genre des politiques sociales. L'apport théorique des "gender studies" à l'analyse des politiques sociales
Dans les pays anglo-saxons et scandinaves, où les études féministes et de genre se sont largement développées au cours des 30 dernières années, l’introduction de la question du sexe puis du genre a permis un renouvellement théorique très fécond en politique sociale, en particulier pour l’analyse comparative des États-providence. Ces approches insistent sur la construction historique, culturelle, sociale et normative des États-providence et des po…
Egalité des sexes et conciliation vie familiale – vie professionnelle en Europe
A l’heure où l’Union européenne (UE) promeut activement des politiques pour concilier vie familiale et vie professionnelle en vue de favoriser l’égalité des chances entre hommes et femmes, cet article s’interroge sur la validité de certaines idées préconçues tendant à considérer toute politique de conciliation indifféremment comme une politique d’égalité entre les sexes. La comparaison sexuée des politiques menées dans ce domaine par trois pays e…
