The Economic Crisis and Social Welfare
Main Article Content
Abstract
During the last decades, the theory of European public law has focused on the historical development of the Social State in social rights or welfare (understood from the perspective of historical optimism) as expansive instances at the service of growing social welfare that should be above any political or economic situation. But after the great “tsunami” of the economic crisis, it seems that the only consistent strategy is to determine the minimum or essential areas able to withstand the constraints on public spending. This view is part of the framework of a north / south duality that seems to showcase the relative fragility of our democratic systems and the inadequate socio–institutional learning processes that have been in use to date to ensure the adequate sustainability of our welfare state.
