Abstract

The paper proposes to adopt a broad definition of the social state (welfare state) which includes four components: social protection, regulation of labor relations (labor law, etc.), public services and economic policy supporting activity and employment (fiscal, tax, monetary, industrial, income, etc.). The paper shows the permanence of the social state in the major developed countries despite the neoliberal turn for thirty years. Social protection is rather developed since the 1980s, the regulation of labor relations has not disappeared and it applies to public services. However, the conclusion is more nuanced for the component of economic policies. This fact confirms the importance to consider this component for understand the social state.
