Una gran introducción a los debates de política social que ocurren en los países desarrollados con algunas referencias a los regimenes de política social en países en desarrollo.

Las partes sobre el desarrollo historico, político, económico y social de los estados de bienestar en el mundo, sus argumentos a favor y sus criticas antiguas y modernas lo hacen un libro útil para ser referencia en la discusión de la política social.
