Abstract

The economic environment is facing various challenges in an internationalized context, creatingthe premises for new structural reforms in the global management. Knowing the deficiencies of thepast experiences, the main challenge is to create a unique model of development that shouldsustain both the social welfare and the economic progress. This paper is based on the assumptionthat a standard social model can only provide fragmentary results and can lead to a dysfunctionaleconomic relationships. The main outcomes of this paper sustain the idea of improving the major indicators of thewelfare state only after a proper adjustment of the social economic models to the national context. Starting from a structured comparative analysis of the major economic social models, the paperwill outline the evidence that a complete model for the welfare state is a composite structure,involving both budgetary and social indicators.
