Dilemmas of the Welfare Mix: The New Structure of Welfare in an Era of Privatization

by Ugo Ascoli (Editor), Costanzo Ranci (Editor)

Through research in the field of social care in six European Countries (France, Germany, Italy, Norway, Spain and the U.K.) the authors of this volume highlight the role of nonprofit and commercial organizations in the new "welfare mix systems" and main social and institutional effects of such new order. This volume in the Nonprofit and Civil Society Studies series is the first attempt to bridge the relevant gap existing between the literature on the welfare state and studies on the nonprofit sector.
