Period:
01.04.2007 – 30.06.2009
This project analyses the distributive impacts of the statutory and institutional settings of European schemes of social assistance focusing on an empirical investigation of the European Union of 25 member states. Therefore, the European schemes of social assistance are classified according to their level and statutory settings and degree of centralisation, respectively. Then the distributive impacts of the European schemes are analysed empirically. Finally, based on the results, the schemes are evaluated according to their performance, effectiveness and efficiency.
