Description

This book examines how Germany's welfare state has shifted from a conservative model towards a new work-first regime, offering crucial insights into contemporary welfare state change and transformation politics. Christof Schiller introduces a novel analytical framework to explain the capacity and mechanisms driving institutional welfare reform. By concentrating on one of Europe's least likely cases for welfare state transformation, the study provides both empirical evidence and theoretical contributions to understanding how and why modern welfare systems evolve. The analysis fills a significant gap in welfare state research by revealing the political dynamics that shape policy decisions and institutional change in advanced economies.

Key Features

Schiller's novel analytical framework provides the missing link in understanding welfare state transformation politics and institutional capacity.

The book analyses Germany's shift from a conservative welfare state model towards a new work-first regime through detailed empirical evidence.

Routledge Studies in the Political Economy of the Welfare State series positioning offers theoretical grounding for comparative welfare state analysis.

Focuses on one of Europe's least likely cases for welfare transformation, making it an exceptional case study for understanding broader reform dynamics.

Addresses contemporary questions about analysing welfare state change in advanced economies facing policy pressures and institutional constraints.
