Outline
The way we were: the traditional “fordist” welfare
state and its variants
The possible future: a new Social Investment (SI)
state
Where are we now: summary data
The role of SECOND WELFARE (“Second line allies”): a
focus on the third sector and on private foundations
2
The way we were: the «Fordist» welfare state
Common traits:
1. Emphasis on social protection (compensatory logic)
2. Ex post benefits for traditional risks/needs
3. Large role for «passive» transfers during non employment (pensions,
unemployment, disability, sickness, maternity, family dependants etc.)
4. Residual safety nets (poverty)
5. Target: households with various family members (female carers)
6. Education & training: outside social protection
3
Variations in the «fordist» theme
(regimes, models, families, clusters..)
1. Continental Europe:
4. Southern Europe:
Bismarckian insurance schemes (BIS)
insider/outsider divide
transfer heavy, lean on services
male breadwinner model (MBM)
2. Anglo-Saxon Europe:
Beveridgean “encompassing” schemes, weak
universalism
Occupational/fiscal welfare for the middle classes
Means-tested benefits for the poor (including
working poor) poverty cum exclusion
3. Nordic Europe:
Strong universalism
Service rich (including Active Labour Market
policies ) already a Social Investment element
Dual earner model (DEM) female
employment, gender equality
Strong but limited safety nets low poverty,
high inclusion
BIS + national health services
insider/outsider divide
Transfer (pension) heavy, very lean on social
services
MBM + high familialism ( low “exclusion”)
Weak/non existent safety nets ( very high
poverty)
5. Central/Eastern Europe:
Transition from socialist collectivism
(productivist welfare model) to mixed models
(social insurance + residual safety nets, poor
services, female earner/carer model) high
poverty and exlusion
4. Southern Europe:
BIS + national health services insider/outsider
divide
Transfer (pension) heavy, very lean on social services
MBM + high familialism ( low “exclusion”)
Weak/non existent safety nets ( very high poverty)

The way we ought to be?
The social investment state
Was introduced in the debate by Esping Andersen et al. (Why
We Need a New Welfare State, 2001)
Became popular in the context of the Lisbon Strategy (20002010) ….
… with different meanings: orientation, paradigm, analytic
concept/framework, a rethorical platform
Has been gradually endorsed by the EU, especially with the
shift from the Lisbon to the Europe 2020 agenda
Is the object of a fully fledged «package» of measures
proposed by the European Commission
10
The Social investment state: core traits
Emphasis on social promotion (enablement logic)
Ex ante (early) prevention of risks and needs (ECEC)
Large role for capacitating social services during the life cycle
Robust safety nets and activation (inclusion)
Individuals within households (dual earner/dual carer model)
Support for reconciling paid work and family life
Education (schooling, training, LLL) as integral part of welfare
sphere
Encouragement of «social innovation»
Social Investment: what rationale?
More growth: human capital + labour market participation
Better growth: knowledge based, quality jobs
More cohesion: safety nets, inclusion policies, elderly care
More equal opportunities: early child education and care,
work-life balance, capacitating services
More social justice: containment of inter-generational
transmission of advantage/disadvantage, greater mobility
chances
Ratesof return toHUmn capitlInvstment: the
Heckman curve
Return to a dollar unit invested at
different ages fromthe perspective of
the beginning of life, assuming one
dollar initilly invested at each age

Si possono mettere qui alcuni dati di
outcome: %povertà (anche children),
NEETs, female employment, unemployed
in receipt of benefits, posti in asili nido
ecc.? Per dire che le lacune del welfare
pubblico hanno conseguenze sociali
negative (anche % di figli che vivono a casa
dei gen)
19
Sothern European Social models: the
challenges
Further recalibration of public social expenditure
towards «social investment»
Budgetary constraints + increasing needs
Need for a SECOND WELFARE, mobilizing additional
non public resources: household savings, private
sector (e.g. company welfare), non profit sector
20
WHY «SECOND» WELFARE
- it comes after the historical develompent of FIRST
welfare, i.e. state-centred and state-funded social
protection during the long XX century
- it complements FIRST welfare:
- integrates/supplements existing public schemes
- adds new schemes/measures in uncovered areas of
need
Stimulates social innovation
Does NOT replace FIRST welfare
21
SECOND WELFARE
mix of innovative interventions mainly funded by non
public resources
With a view to offering benefits and services new
social needs and new categories of vulnerable people
Provided by a multiplicity of stakeholder
Anchored to local contexts, but inserted in wider
networks (no «parochialism»)
Carefully monitored and evaluated

Foundations and social innovation
Not only financial support but also…
Catalysts of multi-actor partnerships
Innovative solutions and governance mechanisms
29
SECOND WELFARE: The challenges
Inappropriate «nesting» between FIRST and SECOND
welfare
Insufficient coordination: no «system», only isolated
experiments
Territorial disparities and inequities
Weak monitoring/evaluation
Weak adhesion to the Social Investment approach
