"Katrougalos and Lazardis examine the social welfare state of the main four Southern European countries: Spain, Italy, Portugal, and Greece. They conduct an overall system analysis of the welfare state in Southern Europe which challenges the prevalent Ferrera model. Additionally, they present a detailed outlook of policies adopted in the fields of employment, migration, health, social security, pensions, and gender-family issues."
