Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
This chapter aims to show the ineffectiveness and the theoretical limits of the dominant approach to social policies by reiterating the historical necessity of social security, designed to satisfy the production system in terms of efficiency and effectiveness while allowing the needs of the population to be met. This chapter will also explain the theoretical relevance of social security, established by many studies within the Keynesian tradition and largely supported by empirical research that has shown its crucial role in economic and social development of capitalist societies. This chapter concludes by indicating how this role can be maintained in the future.
