Intro
DONE# Nelson, Nieuwenhuis, Yerkes - Social policy in
changing European Societies pp. 1-7
Social policy is a fundamental element in European societies, addressing social
risks like unemployment, sickness and old age. Europe has advanced systems of
redistribution and services, supported by social policy.
Social policy is broadly defined as an institutionalized response to social and
economic problems. The role of the state in social policy varies, with some tasks
performed by private or not-for-profit actors. It is primarily funded by the public
sector, but private actors also play a key role, including trade unions and
employers.

, It focuses on various issues, such as family support, gender equality, economic
stabilization and the redistributive impacts. Models vary across Europe. The
Nordics have universal approaches, while the UK and Ireland have market-based
systems.
Post WWII saw a golden age of welfare expansion, but this stagnated after the
1970s, where cutbacks were common. Family policies, including parental leave
and childcare, have expanded despite reductions in other areas.
European countries spend on average over 20% of GDP on social policy, making
it one of the largest national expenditure categories.
Social spending on out-of-work benefits has decreased in many European
countries, while spending on other areas has changed. Since 1980s, European
welfare states have seen changes in social spending composition, including
fiscalization (using the tax system), privatization, marketization and
decentralization
Social policymakers face demographic, societal, political and global challenges
such as declining fertility, ageing, family structure changes, migration, populism,
climate change and the COVID pandemic.
Social policy research studies the design, development, governance and effects
of institutions responding to social and economic challenges. This has evolved
alongside changes in social policy, addressing responses, sustainability, newer
issues like environmental change, digitalization and migration. There are more
and more international socio-economic surveys, like ESS or EVS.
The focus more on thematic and policy-specific studies (like family policy,
minimum income protection_) and new sub-fields have emerged, often focusing
on a specific target group (like family, elderly) or policy objectives (like gender
equality, social investment). So European social policy research is becoming
more specialized, with distinct sub-fields, scholarly standards and networks.
