Mirosława Grewińskiego – Multi-sectoral social policy: towards welfare pluralism
In recent years one might have witnessed, a shift in the emphasis from the traditional welfare to welfare pluralism. Welfare mix ideas, seem to appear with an increasing frequency. Thus it becomes evident that all sectors – the government, the market, and the institutions of civil society, contribute to the creation and maintenance of social prosperity. International organizations, such as the UN, OECD, or the EU have been stressing the necessity to introduce the new paradigm of social policy. In Poland, a gradual shift of responsibility from the central government level to the level of self-government (decentralization) as well as towards the private sector (commercialization) and the non-governmental one (socialization) may be observed. This tendency seems to remain mostly ignored or underestimated in theoretical and scholarly analysis of social policy.
Agnieszki Jachowicz – Residental homes for the elderly – necessity or luxury?
In traditional family an old person was treated with respect. Nowadays youngsters do not have even time enough to take care for their grandfathers and parents. In consequence they place them in residential homes. As late as in the 90th and at the beginning of ’04 new regulations have been promulgated, describing types of residential homes, range of provided services, entitlements and the way to cover necessary expenditures. It is quite possible that all these adjustments will make living in residential homes the kind of luxury and not only the painful necessity.
