Beschreibung:
This book shows how responsiveness in European welfare programs is institutionalized through nationally distinct legal foundations, professional traditions, and resource networks, while revealing how resource scarcities threaten to erode these capabilities.
DISTINCT APPROACH: This research project is absolutely unique in bringing an in-dept, 3-country comparative perspective of both micro and macro level data, and therefore an ability to connect national culture, institutional history, and agency organization to ground-level practice
