Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Issu d'enseignements professés à l'Institut d'études politiques de Paris, cet ouvrage à l'ambition de fournir des clés de compréhension des politiques sociales et de leurs évolutions récentes. Les politiques que nous connaissons aujourd'hui se sont construites depuis plus d'un siècle, au cours d'une histoire violente et tourmentée, et au prix de débats intellectuels de grande ampleur. Elles se sont organisées autour de quelques principes fondamentaux : amélioration et extension du statut de salarié, conception salariale de la protection contre les risques, rôle régulateur de l'Etat. Ces principes sont fortement remis en cause depuis une vingtaine d'années par les évolutions de l'économie et de la société. Politiques du travail, de l'emploi et de la formation professionnelle, mise à l'épreuve par le développement du chômage, politiques de protection sociale, partagées entre assurance et solidarité, politiques " transversales " destinées à lutter contre les nouvelles formes de pauvreté et d'exclusion (revenu minimum d'insertion, politique des villes et intégration des immigrés). Ce livre analyse de la façon la plus simple et synthétique possible les différentes politiques publiques mises en œuvre aujourd'hui, leurs évolutions récentes, leurs interactions, leurs perspectives. Cette seconde édition a fait l'objet d'une importante actualisation, qui s'est traduite, dans certains cas, par une refonte complète.

This book was released on 2002 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper presents a survey of the evidence and debate on the social determinants of productivity in the context of the Canadian productivity debate. The purpose of the paper is to try to make sense of the seemingly contradictory pieces of theory and evidence linking social policy to economic growth. Essentially the paper looks at 4 areas of research: the growth and inequality debate; the small but growing literature on the policy determinants of economic growth; an examination of 2 specific social policies (education and health); the literature on major technological change, wage inequality and the new economy. To provide the context for this discussion, the paper also includes some background material on economic growth, productivity, and social policy in OECD countries.

Download or read book Transforming Social Action Into Social Change written by Shana Cohen and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-05-25 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cohen offers a new framework for analyzing social projects and local social activism. Rather than look at how single projects are designed and managed to evaluate their impact, the approach calls for analyzing fields of social action: policy and politics, institutional behavior, social networks among policymakers and practitioners, and availability of funding and other resources. Combined, they affect the conceptualization of a social problem and the design and practice of social intervention. More broadly, through circumscribing the range of thinking about social problems, they delimit possibilities to generate social change. Analyzing fields also allows for linking macro-level trends in areas like policy to decision-making within individual organizations and the effectiveness of projects at instigating the desired transformation in individual and collective behavior. Working together, policymakers, individual activists, nonprofit organizations, and staff in public institutions like schools and hospitals can critique and alter fields to challenge more effectively social problems. This collaboration, in turn, affects how social policies are designed and, ultimately, the politics of social change.

Download or read book Social Welfare Policy written by John G. McNutt and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-10-05 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social Welfare Policy: Responding to a Changing World is a topical, comprehensive introduction to social welfare policy. It uses a contemporary framework that explicitly addresses three forces that have redefined the social policy arena: the growth of the information economy, the rise of globalization, and our current environmental crisis. This framework is applied to the six traditional arenas of policy--child and family services, health and mental health, poverty and inequality, housing and community development, crime and violence, and aging, and explores how to find solutions to both long enduring and brand new problems. John McNutt and Richard Hoefer's introductory text represents a move forward in social welfare policy thinking that is built on the latest scholarship and teaches students that the time to create social policies for the future is in the present.

Empowering voters Persuasive political communication. Budgeting and allocating resources. Evaluating political social work efforts. Making ethical decisions in political social work.
