?:abstract
  • The article comments on attitudes of Americans toward the welfare state. The data are drawn primarily from the International Social Survey Program as well as from the earlier Political Action study. The contemporary attitudes and policy preferences of the citizenry in the U.S., Austria, Germany, Italy, and Great Britain match the differences that exist in the historical development and current implementation of the welfare state. America has generally been less supportive of principles underlying the welfare state and less eager to expand its scope. Leveling is not nearly as popular a goal in the U.S. as in the European nations. Americans are likewise the least inclined to favor various governmental programs to regulate the economy. In terms of wage/price controls, employment creation schemes, governmental ownership, and other economic matters the U.S. routinely shows the lowest level of support. In contrast, the Italians are generally the most enthusiastic for such regulations. Americans are also less supportive of such social welfare entitlements as health care, retirement benefits, housing, and jobs. As with regulations, Americans are lowest in support, while Italians are generally at the top of the scale. (xsd:string)
