“…EspingAndersen classified it as a corporatist regime, and subsequent analyses of the other three countries confirm this classification (Guillen & Alvarez, 2001;Katrougalos, 1996;Guibentif, 1996;Petmesidou, 1991). More detailed descriptions of the other three countries suggest that they would follow Italy in the re-analysis, but may fall more to the residualist than universalist side in programme design.…”

Are housing provision systems in southern Europe (Italy, Spain, Portugal and Greece) different from those in northern Europe? Answering this question requires a way of theorizing housing systems, which locates them within their broader societal contexts. After setting out some of the key empirical differences between northern and southern, the paper reanalyses Esping-Andersen's work on welfare regimes and reviews housing-specific work using these ideas as a basis for identifying differences between northern and southern European welfare and housing systems. Three key factors emerge from this analysis: the capacity of civil administration, the linkages between formal and informal segments in the labour market, and the operation of extended familial networks in welfare distribution. On this basis, the paper presents a more institutionally robust analysis of the relationships between welfare and housing provision systems in southern Europe. The conclusions address the problems of using welfare regime theory to analyse housing provision as well as some of the specific housing problems associated with socio-economic change in southern Europe.Housing, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Greece, welfare regimes, clientelism, segmented labour markets, extended families,

“…During Caetano's Estado Social, social security coverage was expanded to new categories of workers, the Ministry of Health and Welfare was reorganised, and new health centres were built. 7 In 1971, a health law was passed aimed at securing a unified direction, better planning, and co-ordination of health administration. The government was to take the lead over the private sector.…”

“…Another example is offered by the fact that in Greece about 40 per cent of private sector workers were classified as working under "arduous and unhealthy employment conditions", which implies the right to early retirement. On the contrary, the extended authoritarian rule in Spain and Portugal resulted in a different pattern of a state dominated system, characterized by the exclusion of organized interests and a more uniform "state charity" pattern of welfare (see Santos, 1994;Guibentif, 1997;Rhodes, 1997, p. 9).…”

Τhe South European welfare states at the dawn of the new Millennium: identity and problems

The present paper examines the identity of the “South European” deviation against classical typologies. Against this background, the argument presented some years earlier by Katrougalos and Lazaridis (2003) is revisited, bearing in mind later contributions in the field as well as recent data. The article then proceeds by presenting the main traits of Southern European states, arguing that they all share the basic characteristics of the “state-corporatist” welfare model. Nonetheless, important differences can be discerned among them, while some seem to share more common features with France than with the other members of the Southern cluster. These differences are in turn attributed to their historic traditions, and in particular the dissimilar weight of patronage and clientelism.
