Regimes on pillars :  alternative welfare state logics and dynamics 

 -  2001 
<br/><br/> Social welfare arrangements represent the conjunction of the twin logics of regimes and pillars. Regimes describe who receives the benefits and on what conditions; pillars describe who pays for and who provides the benefits. There are historical associations and "natural"affinities`between certain regimes and certain pillars. But thereis also scope for novel combinations and recombinations. Many cotemporary welfare state reforms are best conceptualized in terms of shifting the mix of pillar and blurring regimes
