Book (other academic/artistic)abstract
- The ways welfare has been, is, and will be organized are both intriguing and important. This book reports on a study that was intended to complement the traditional studies of the welfare sector, which either collect statistics (which is very useful), conduct surveys (also useful, but mostly for sampling the dominant discourse), or engage in speculative reasoning (mostly done by economists and political scientists). We elicited narratives from citizens of three welfare states – Canada, Australia, and Sweden – representing different generations (20+ to 70+ years old) , which illustrate the ways they think about organization of welfare, at present and in the future.
