This situation would seem to call for increased spending on the social safety net, yet governments throughout continental Europe, especially since the financial crisis, have instead been turning to austerity. As a result, they have had to choose between either extending coverage and retrenching the good benefits given to 'insiders' or maintaining the protection, coverage, and benefits of the relatively well-off at the expense of a growing class of excluded 'outsiders'. 'Expanding welfare in an age of austerity: increasing protection in an unprotected world' asks why different nations have taken different approaches in addressing - or not addressing - this problem."--Back cover OP - 218 CN - HN373.5 .K485 2017eb SN - 9789048529391 SN - 9048529395 SN - 9789462980211 SN - 9462980217 KW - Blutiger Jupiter : Musikgruppe : Europa KW - Welfare state : Europe.
