«La crise de l'Etat-providence» is the political philosophy essay by Pierre Rosanvallon, published by Seuil in paperback (183 pages, in French).
Rosanvallon analyzes the welfare state as a costly, opaque and bureaucratic machine whose principles of solidarity and redistribution have become blurred. The crisis is cultural and moral, as well as economic, and he proposes replacing the logic of state control of the social with a triple dynamic of socialization, decentralization and autonomization.
The work is part of the Points Politique collection (no. 121) and was published in Paris in 1984.
Aimed at readers interested in sociology, political philosophy and the debate on the welfare state.
Pierre Rosanvallon is a French left historian and sociologist. He was named a professor at the Collège de France in 2001, holding the chair in modern and contemporary political history.
