Seminar
Poverty and Welfare
Markus Kienscherf
Comments
What is poverty? How is it measured? What links poverty to labor (or the lack thereof)? And what has the welfare state got to do with both poverty and labor? These are some of the broad questions that we will address in this seminar. What is more, we will discuss Victorian discourses of pauperism, the protestant work ethic, the curious notion of police power, the history of the US welfare state, Neoliberalism (and its discontents) as well as the relations between social policy and economic policy.
