Volume Presentation "Social Policies in Romania 30 Years after: Expectations and Answers"

Summary/Abstract: It is much harder to introduce a collective volume than a one-author book. As I assumed the introduction of the volume on behalf of the coordinators, I won’t enter into detailed analysis for each study, leaving room to your questions for the authors of the book. I will resume myself only to the general and ultimate intent of the book, and to some of its conclusions regarding the impact of the policy strategies’ in creating social and individual welfare in post-December Romania. The book provides an integrative vision about the social policy models in their dynamics, over the 30 years from the Revolution. In fact, the 16 studies, though independent, have the backbone of shared unity regarding the thematic structure and methodology. The studies, one by one, are an analysis of the sectorial social policies over the 30 years of transition, for outlining the specific profile of the policies in Romania as compared with the ones of the EU-member-states.
