Social Policy, Poverty, and Inequality in Central and Eastern Europe and the Former Soviet Union: Agency and Institutions in Flux

Paul Stubbs, An Sofiya, Tatiana Chubarova, Bob Deacon, Natalija Atas, 2019

Overview

This book examines the varied welfare paths of post-socialist nations across Central, Eastern, and Southeastern Europe, as well as the former Soviet Union. It investigates the effects of over twenty years of transformation on poverty, well-being, and inequality. The analysis considers both the lasting impacts of socialist welfare systems and the establishment of new social, political, and economic structures, often within newly independent states. Contributors from diverse academic fields explore critical aspects of social protection, including healthcare, poverty reduction strategies, active labor market policies, pension systems, and child welfare.
