Modernising Social Policy for the New Life
Course
For many decades, social policy interventions were limited to assist and insure against a limited
number of well-defined risks. As a result of diverse and ongoing social trends, however, the social
order based on standard employment relations, the male breadwinner model and social security
in defined but exceptional circumstances, has changed. New social risks have emerged and are
often mutually reinforcing. Different groups of individuals are likely to respond to these risks
differently. The development of new risks, or the additional complexity of those risks already existing,
raises key questions for social policy, in order to address these issues, the
OEÇD
held a seminar
in Paris on
31
May and
1
June
2007
to develop responses to these emerging challenges.
The fundamental policy question addressed in the seminar was whether the current designs
of social protection systems in
OECD
societies are well-suited to contemporary life-course realities.
The seminar looked in detail at recent policy developments in
OECD
countries to develop more
flexible time-based social policies, as well as related issues, such as asset-based welfare
programmes, as well as policies to encourage redistribution of income and/or time over the life
course and how these might be structured most effectively.
Modernising Social Policy for the New Life Course presents the topics discussed at this seminar
and is essential reading for anyone interested in current developments in social policy.

Modernising Social Policy for the New Life
Course
For many decades, social policy interventions were limited to assist and insure against a limited
number of well-defined risks. As a result of diverse and ongoing social trends, however, the social
order based on standard employment relations, the male breadwinner model and social security
in defined but exceptional circumstances, has changed. New social risks have emerged and are
often mutually reinforcing. Different groups of individuals are likely to respond to these risks
differently. The development of new risks, or the additional complexity of those risks already existing,
raises key questions for social policy, in order to address these issues, the
OEÇD
held a seminar
in Paris on
31
May and
1
June
2007
to develop responses to these emerging challenges.
The fundamental policy question addressed in the seminar was whether the current designs
of social protection systems in
OECD
societies are well-suited to contemporary life-course realities.
The seminar looked in detail at recent policy developments in
OECD
countries to develop more
flexible time-based social policies, as well as related issues, such as asset-based welfare
programmes, as well as policies to encourage redistribution of income and/or time over the life
course and how these might be structured most effectively.
Modernising Social Policy for the New Life Course presents the topics discussed at this seminar
and is essential reading for anyone interested in current developments in social policy. |
