A Social State, a Welfare State

Vjekoslav Miličić ; Pravni fakultet Sveučilišta u Zagrebu

Abstract

In the introductory part of the paper, the author makes a crucial statement in contribution to the discussion: to establish and to properly accomplish the organisation of a welfare state are among the crucial conditions of the moral credibility, moral justification and legitimacy of the authorities. He then offers some bases for the understanding of a social state. The principle of tolerance and the principle of togetherness, as well a basic group of needs for safety, are considered by the author to be the presumptions and the preconditions for a welfare state, supported by the list of values of the European Social Charter. The concluding part of the paper deals with the obvious and serious obstacles to the accomplishment of a welfare state in the Republic of Croatia.
