Description

Poverty is not a neutral phenomenon, nor are social inclusion programmes neutrally conceived, designed and implemented. Their ultimate nature is built upon ideas, values, actors, politics and economic constraints. This topical book is one of the first to examine the social and political construction of anti-poverty programmes in Central Eastern Europe and their transformation from the communist rule to the current economic crisis. It covers the approach towards the parasite poor through to Guaranteed Minimum Income Schemes and illustrates how the distinction between different categories of deserving and undeserving poor has evolved over the years as the result of changing paradigms, combined with the pressure exerted by domestic and international actors, the European Union and the World Bank among others. This text breaks new ground for social policy students and scholars interested in understanding how differently post-communist welfare states have represented, legitimized and dealt with poverty, need and social justice in accordance to divergent normative frameworks constructed at national level.
