The contemporary context of social security through the prism of social policy
Silvija Visinski
Sažetak
Since World War II the view of the welfare state has changed, as well as the social policies of individual countries. Also the level of social security guaranteed to citizens from the state. By providing social services and fulfilling the basic needs of citizens, social policies have succeeded in giving an adequate level of security to citizens. The situation we have today is merely the result of the restructuring of the welfare state (dating back to the economic crises of the 1970's), and is now more dependent on capital flows, as well as the market. Under these circumstances, new possibilities have opened for a combined approach in providing citizens different social services. Also, the importance of the so-called »third way« has become evident. This approach respects social needs, but at the same time has a more liberal view in producing a balance between the market and the state. In this manner human dignity can be preserved and protected.
