Book Description
Asserts that Canada has ten different social assistance programs that reflect the historical development of assistance within each province. To examine specific patterns of social assistance, the author develops a five-fold typology consisting of residual, market/family enforcement, conservative, market performance, and redistributive models. He uses the typology to compare development of assistance provisions in the provinces, provincial responses to federal initiatives, and unique trajectories of assistance regimes. He concludes by surveying some of the broader implications of his findings for issues such as the development of national standards and the impact of globalization on social assistance provision.
