Almost all experts agree that we are likely to see further constraints on state welfare in the 21st Century. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGathering together the findings from up-to-date attitude surveys in Europe East and West, the US and Australasia, this revealing book shows that, contrary to the claims of many experts and policy-makers, the welfare state is still highly popular with the citizens of most countries. This evidence will add to controversy in an area of fundamental importance to public policy and to current social science debate. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stefan Svallfors\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0415207711\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415207713\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/20\/1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 260\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.19lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.63d","brand":"Stefan Svallfors","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48064880083199,"sku":"9780415207713","price":210.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3bc8ea06-d4cf-48aa-bd8a-cb108a59ada2.jpg?v=1768671658","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-end-of-the-welfare-stefan-svallfors-9780415207713","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
