Welfare, Paperback / softback Book

Welfare Paperback / softback

Part of the Reflections series

Paperback / softback

Description

Danes love sharing, caring and communal singing, Auld Lang Syne, 99 bottles of Carlsberg, and public welfare for all.

This sounds too good to be true - and it is. Like every great fairy tale, the model welfare state has a dark side.

Carsten Jensen, tax-funded welfare authority at Aarhus University, reveals its soft underbelly, warts and all.

Danes love public welfare services, and many would pay even higher taxes to get more - but only more of the services they use. And those who don't subscribe to the good life, middle-class style?

The answer is blowing in the wind.
