The Welfare State's Other Crisis Explaining the New Partnership Between Nonprofit Organizations and the State in France

Description:
While most observers have equated privatization with a conservative assault on the welfare state, Claire Ullman demonstrates that this was not the case in France. There, delegation to nonprofit organizations was motivated by the desire to increase the state's ability to achieve progressive social goals, including enabling welfare programs to reach more of the disadvantaged. Elites sought to recruit nonprofit organizations as partners, not to roll back the state but to bolster and extend its power. Ullman recounts the involvement of nonprofit organizations in the implementation of the socialist government's welfare policies in France during the 1980s and assesses its implications for the future of the welfare state and for democracy.
