 Routledge Handbook of the
Welfare State

Forty-­five contributions from renowned international specialists in the field provide readers
with expert analysis of the core issues related to the welfare state, including regional depictions
of welfare states around the globe. The second edition of the Routledge Handbook of the Welfare
State combines essays on methodologies, core concepts and central policy areas to produce a
comprehensive understanding of what ‘the welfare state’ means around the world.
In the aftermath of the credit crunch, the Handbook addresses some of the many questions
about the welfare state. This second edition has been thoroughly revised and updated to include
an in-­depth analysis of societal changes in recent years. New articles can be found on topics such
as: the impact of ideas, well-­being, migration, globalisation, India, welfare typologies, homeless-
ness and long-­term care.
This volume will be an invaluable reference book for students and scholars throughout the
social sciences, particularly in sociology, social policy, public policy, international relations, pol-
itics and gender studies.

Bent Greve is Professor of Welfare State Analysis in the Department of Society and Business at
Roskilde University, Denmark. He has published widely on different topics surrounding the
welfare state, including technology and the labour market, happiness and social policy, and
labour market policy. He is also a member of several boards and committees in Denmark and
internationally.
