1 The New Welfare State An Answer to New Social Risks? Joakim Palme Institute for Futures Studies
2 The Characteristics of the Nordic Welfare States
3 Shaping the Nordic Model Gerhard Lenski s perspective on inequality: - inequalities in human societies are shaped by political conflicts as well as economic structures The emergence of universalism 1930s Population crisis and Depression Social citizenship Earnings-related social insurance Modern family policy - dual-earner model What about ageing societies?
4 Nordic model of social protection Universal benefits Earnings-related social insurance Targeted benefits to poor Social services -universal -decentralized -separated from cash benefits Individual social rights Taxation Employer contributions Central/local taxes Local taxes with state subsidies Dual-earner model Full employment and active labor market policies
5 The merits of the model Low life-cycle poverty Reduced inequalities High employment High female participation Strong support for social security Incentives and cost control?!
6 Strategies of Redistribution R H Tawney - Welfare State as a Strategy of Equality G Tullock and J Le Grand - middle class inclusion damages the poor The Paradox of Redistribution Robin Hood Simple Egalitarianism Within Group Redistribution Mattew s principle: Give to those who have
7 Equality and efficiency Universal coverage combating poverty and exclusion Transaction costs - low with nationwide systems Portability good for labour mobility Incentive structure poverty traps avoided Investments in health and education productive labour force Stable institutions positive for growth: social rights as property rights Expenditure levels not the critical factor but program design
8 Rowntree s Poverty Cycle 10 0 Poverty low - high Childhood Youth Family Empty nest Old age
9 Life Cycle Poverty CAN71 SWE67 FIN66 USA74 YOUTH FAMILY EMPTY NEST OLD AGE
10 Life Cycle Poverty UK SWE FIN USA CAN YOUTH FAMILY EMPTY NEST OLD AGE
11 Young persons, Single mothers, Immigrants Increased unemployment Increased economic difficulties More temporary employment contracts Declining health status Increased accumulation of welfare problems
12 Current dilemmas of the model Nominal cost limits vs. the insurance principle Choice vs. segregation and no voice Necessary reforms vs. trust in stable institutions Social welfare policy vs. occupational and fiscal welfare policy Local autonomy vs. equal citizenship rights Interest formation: where is the middle class going and which political forces mobilise? End of full-employment?
13 Organisation of social services Common trends: Decentralization Consumer-financing Privatization see graph right: Employment in private provision of publicly financed social services P r o c e n t Public companies Profit Non-profit
14 Welfare and welfare institutions Welfare: Individual resources making it possible to control living conditions Several dimensions: health, work, income, education etc Institutions as individual resources: state, family, market Misfortune: social policy challenge Welfare institutions: Resoures for the individual as user Insurance for future needs Investment in the future Access and quality State, municipalities, market, voluntary sector, family
15 The Future of the European Social Model
16 Common European Trends Ageing: More old people! First Marriage Rate down Age at First Marriage up Age at First Birth up Extramarital Births up Total Divorce Rate up Total Fertility Rate down Female Labour Force Participation up Inequalities up Common Futures? More people above 80 years of age Elderly dependency rates Population decline!? Fertility? Migration? Continued pattern in family change?
17 Rethinking social policy in ageing societies Social security is strongly redistributive over the life cycle: the ageing of societies puts tough fiscal pressures on public spending The debate on ageing issues has been overly focussed on pension reforms and savings How social policy interact with fertility, education and labour supply (the future tax base) is of vital concern We need to reform the system of social protection in order to make it sustainable for the future
18 Education and Growth: Macro model The statistically significant relations Education expenses have a positive impact on GDP/capita GDP/capita has a positive impact on average years of education but a negative impact on the GDP share of education expenses Education expenses have a negative impact on fertility.
19 Education and human capital formation Education as investing in the future School performance: level and distribution Social background and school performance Life-long learning starts year one Parental labour force participation and performance Gendered performance, and sustainable family policy in ageing societies
