Welfare states and welfare attitudes / Stefan Svallfors -- Welfare performance and welfare support / Wim van Oorschot and Bart Meuleman -- Attitudes among high-risk groups / Helena Blomberg, Johanna Kallio, Olli Kangas, Christian Kroll, and Mikko Niemelä -- A normative approach to welfare attitudes / Christian Staerklé, Tiina Likki, and Régis Scheidegger -- Unraveling working class welfare chauvinism / Jan Mewes and Steffen Mau -- Age, class, and attitudes toward government responsibilities / Stefan Svallfors, Joakim Kulin, and Annette Schnabel -- Framing theory, welfare attitudes, and the United States case / Clem Brooks -- Welfare attitudes in context / Stefan Svallfors.
This book analyses people's attitudes toward welfare policies across Europe, and offers a novel comparison with the United States. Occupied with normative orientations toward the redistribution of resources and public policies aimed at ameliorating adverse conditions, the book focusses on the interplay between individual welfare attitudes and behaviour, institutional contexts, and structural variables. It provides essential input into the comparative study of welfare state attitudes and offers critical insights into the public legitimacy of welfare state reform.
