Overview

The architects of the welfare state, in their wildest dreams, would never have imagined that the objectives of the welfare state could produce such an extraordinary number of people with dependency and poor mental health. Social welfare and dependency can be seen nowhere more clearly than Scandinavia. How did the welfare state form public habit and build a culture of dependency? How should we change the circumstances? This book is about the story of ordinary people in ordinary places where social safety net continues to be the reality of everybody's life. It explores the building block of the welfare state not merely with conventional economic tools but with analysis of social and welfare institutions. It traces the links between poor mental health and social welfare programs.
