?:abstract
  • This chapter deals with the welfare states of Continental European countries.The 1970s defined the golden era of welfare states with very generous benefit levels andhigh expenditure, but since then dysfunctionalities have emerged over time creatingpressure for adaption. After an overview of the origins of social protection, the chapterinvestigates empirically to what extent Continental European welfare states (still) differfrom the welfare state of other countries and how reform trends look like in selected so-cial policy fields. Despite major challenges due to ageing, less stable labour markets, fi-nancial and economic crises as well as the COVID-19 pandemic, the building blocks ofContinental European welfare states such as the dominating role of social insuranceschemes and employment-related social rights are still intact. They still have much incommon and are to certain degrees still different from the other welfare states. How-ever, recent reforms containing both liberal and social-democratic elements, such asretrenchment in public pension schemes and for long-term unemployed on the onehand and more work/family policies and non-contributory universalistic benefits onthe other hand, might indicate slow endogenous changes with the long-term potentialto undermine the original character of Continental European welfare states.
