紹介
The future European system of social security and welfare is in need of a new perspective. Invigorating and informative, this book contributes to developing this new form of 'social exclusion knowledge' thanks to its conceptual and theoretical framework and its comparative empirical studies in eight European cities between Bologna and Stockholm. Social security and welfare need to provide the infrastructure for the coping strategies developed by those in danger of being excluded. The studies featured in this volume, focusing on a range of problems (eg poverty, housing, work, neighbourhood, position of family, women, migrants) in the context of different European welfare regimes, identify and assess the coping strategies and resources they need.
