Description

Explore the complex connection between family structures and welfare systems in Southern Europe. This academic work by Routledge provides a historical and comparative analysis of Italy and Spain, offering deep insights into how these two Mediterranean nations operate. The book addresses two primary objectives to help researchers and students understand social policy. It works to open the black box of the family within welfare state analysis by introducing a specific focus on kin relations and inter-generational connections. This approach moves beyond traditional metrics to look at the actual social bonds that sustain these populations. Additionally, the text explains the reasons behind the low levels of support provided to families with children in these southern welfare states. By examining the legacy of fascism, the historical influence of the Church, and the specific roles played by leftist parties, the book provides a comprehensive view of the social and political factors that shape modern Mediterranean family life and state support.
