 PREFACE

THIS is the second edition of The Oxford Handbook of the Welfare State, a
comprehensive, cross-disciplinary and multi-author survey of the state of
the welfare state in its advanced capitalist homelands. It is eleven years
since the first edition was published, and much has changed in the
intervening period. This second edition fully reflects those changes. All of
the chapters that have been retained from the first edition have been
substantially rewritten to reflect what has happened over the past decade. In
addition, we have commissioned five entirely new chapters, and a new
conclusion, which focuses upon the challenge that climate change poses for
all future social policy regimes. It is our expectation and our belief that this
new edition of the Handbook will reflect the breadth of issues and
experience in the welfare state today in just the way that the first edition did
in 2010. It is designed to tell a comprehensive story about the comparative
experience of advanced welfare states right now.
There have been some significant changes of personnel since 2010. We
have recruited a number of new authors, all of whom have a proven
expertise in the topics about which they write. Two of the original editors—
Jane Lewis and Frank Castles—have retired, though their mark can still be
seen upon the book in its revised form. Two of the other editors—Herbert
Obinger1 from the University of Bremen and Christopher Pierson from the
University of Nottingham—remain on the editorial team. We have recruited
two new and highly experienced editors from North America, Professors
Kimberly Morgan (from George Washington University) and Daniel Béland
(from McGill University), who have brought new insight and expertise to
the editorial process. Very sadly, in the early stages of preparing this second
edition, Professor Stephan Leibfried, the mastermind of the entire project
(alongside Dominic Byatt at Oxford University Press), died. Stephan’s
death was a terrible shock and a grievous loss to all those who knew him.
He was a very funny and generous man, who took his work, including this
project, extremely seriously and ensured that things were always done and
done right. He is irreplaceable. We have retained his characteristically
insightful and off-centre essay on the postage stamps of welfare in this
second edition of the book, which we dedicate to his memory. Finally, we
also want to pay tribute to contributor Dennis Spies, who passed suddenly
away at age 40 shortly before this volume went to print.
support of the universities and research centres for which we work.
Special mention is due to the University of Bremen, to its Research Center
on Inequality and Social Policy (SOCIUM), and to the associated Hanse-
Wissenschaftskolleg (based in Delmenhorst, Lower Saxony), which
supported various members of the editorial team during their visits to
Germany. We are also grateful to Emma Gasster for great editorial
assistance. Dominic Byatt and a team of editors and production staff at
Oxford University Press have overseen both editions from conception to
publication. We are grateful for all this support.
Assailed from almost every quarter, the welfare state is here to stay. It
remains what governments—local and central—do, most of the time. It
provides a key part of the infrastructure of our shared lives—in health and
education, for example. It is still an engine of redistribution—of money, of
life-chances, and of well-being. And it helps support people in times of
crisis, as we saw in the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis and, more
recently, in the wake of the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic. But it faces a series
of unprecedented challenges: demographic, institutional, and (in the case of
climate change) existential. And it seems certain that COVID-19 and its
consequences will change the context for social policy profoundly and for a
long time to come. Given this, we do well to be armed with the best
possible guide to the welfare state as we have it right now. That is what this
second edition of the Oxford Handbook of the Welfare State is designed to
be.
