Comparative research is exploding with alternative methodological and theoretical approaches. In this book, experts in each one of these methods provide a comprehensive explanation and application of time-series, pooled, event history and Boolean methods to substantive problems of the welfare state. Each section of the book focuses on a different method with a general introduction to the methods and then two papers using the method to deal with analysis concerning welfare state problems in a political economy perspective. Scholars concerned with methodology in this area cannot afford to overlook this book because it will help them keep up on proliferating methodologies. Graduate students in political science and sociology will find this book extremely useful in their careers.

Recent debates in macrosociological and comparative methodology have revolved around the respective merits of the "variable-oriented" and "case studies" approaches. In its extreme form, the methodological debate has presented these two approaches as mutually antagonistic strategies and even as epistemologically distinct ways to interpret social reality. They have been contrasted by exemplifying them as nomothetic versus idiosyncratic brands of so…
Welfare state development in a world system context
The modern welfare state emerged first in Germany when Bismarck introduced income security measures for industrial workers in 1883. It then spread to the rest of the Continent and England. Welfare states in Europe achieved steady growth, adding new programs periodically and extending coverage to additional segments of their populations.
