Summary

This text offers a radical interpretation of welfare regimes and their likely future development. Building on an account of the principal contradictions and dilemmas of capital as a social relation, Bob Jessop explores interrelated aspects of all capitalist welfare regimes. These include the forms, modes of governance, scales, and specific policies pursued in support of economic growth and social reproduction. These basic features are related to the postwar Keynesian Welfare National State and its role in the rise, consolidation, and crisis of Atlantic Fordism. Following this, Jessop analyzes the nature of the emerging welfare regime, which he calls the Schumpeterian Workfare Postnational Regime, and its role in the transition to post-Fordism. The analysis concludes with a critique of the basic irrationality of the neo-liberal form of this emerging regime and considers its main alternatives. This should be of interest to sociologists, political scientists, institutional economists, geographers, and students of social policy.
