Phone: Room: F844 Course content The rapid pace of technological, economic, political, and socio-demographic change, accelerated by the recent enlargement of the European Union, has intensified the pressures placed European social protection. The course Welfare States in a Changing Europe provides a comprehensive introduction to comparative research on class, gender and politics in modern welfare states. The main purpose of the course is to establish linkages between the organization of social policy and outcomes in terms of the living conditions and life chances of European citizens. We will also discuss different theoretical traditions for explaining the emergence and subsequent development of modern welfare states, including the most prominent insights from sociology, economics and political science. Another theme concerns diverse institutional forms in the area of social policy and the methodology associated with comparative sociology. Learning outcomes Upon the completion of the course the student is expected to be able to: 1) Account for the concept of welfare state regimes and contrast the institutional characteristics of social policies in different countries, 2) Critically discuss theories that attempts to explain institutional diversity of welfare states, 3) Analyse and critically evaluate the relationship between social policy and outcomes, such as poverty, health, labour market stratification and fertility. Types of teaching Teaching is based on lectures in English, where students are expected to participate actively.
