Southern European Welfare States Problems, Challenges and Prospects

Katrougalos and Lazardis examine the social welfare state of the main four Southern European countries: Spain, Italy, Portugal, and Greece. They conduct an overall system analysis of the welfare state in Southern Europe which challenges the prevalent Ferrera model. Additionally, they present a detailed outlook of policies adopted in the fields of employment, migration, health, social security, pensions, and gender-family issues.Lazaridis, Gabriella is the author of 'Southern European Welfare States Problems, Challenges and Prospects' with ISBN 9780333655375 and ISBN 0333655370.
