Submitted Assignment from the year 2019 in the subject Business economics - Economic Policy, grade: 80.00, University of Malta (Department of Social Policy), course: B.A. (Hons) Social Wellbeing Studies, language: English, abstract: The social security system is aimed towards supporting residents by providing them with financial support as well as maintaining their overall wellbeing and protecting them from poverty. In the Maltese scenario this system is regulated under Chapter 318 of the Laws of Malta. Social security benefits are important in society as they support residents and vulnerable groups from becoming financially deprived. Yet, I personally feel that more monitoring needs to be adopted in order to ensure that such benefits are really going to people who need them rather than to those who do not. The government spends a lot of money in this area and residents contribute to be entitled for certain benefits, so it is important to ensure that the right people are receiving these benefits.

Book Description
The island of Malta, a nonaligned power, received full independence from Great Britain in 1964. Malta's consequent classification as a developing nation compelled its government to initiate many changes in its political, social, and economic ideologies. Central to its efforts for redevelopment was a stronger emphasis on expansion of its international educational environment, which included vocational, technical, and academic training. The island has continued to prepare and maintain itself to accommodate the emerging multinational business community, recognizing the importance and impact it would have on the country's future. In post-secondary education, emphasis was placed on career-oriented (work-study) programs, and included the mastery of four foreign languages. In its search for economic, social, and political stability, Malta's destiny was strongly influenced by situational factors--societal, cultural, religious, foreign, and political. Viewing Malta as a case study, this volume sheds light on the functioning of an educational system in a developing nation, demonstrates education's role in improving a nation's socioeconomic system, and supports economic theories that maintain that investment in education is a natural tool for economic development. It also provides information on approaches and techniques other countries use to resolve their educational problems and adds to the knowledge of international and business education.

Book Description
Large or small, old EU member or new, and even EU member state or not – political economies across Southern Europe have been increasingly but distinctively ‘Europeanised’. In political, public and scholarly debates on processes of Europeanisation, Southern Europe invariably features as the area of concern. These concerns have been all the more heightened when the current sovereign debt crisis disproportionately hit this ‘flaky fringe’. This volume systematically investigates the dynamics of Europeanisation in the ‘Southern Periphery’ by tracing the domestic constellations of ideas, interests and institutions over the course of the 2000s which came to a close with the crisis. Bringing together a multidisciplinary team of leading specialists, the volume focuses on the political economy of public policy reform in Greece, Italy, Malta, Portugal, Spain and Turkey. In order to allow for cross-case comparisons, these original country studies follow a common template framed by what the Editors call the ‘Europeanisation as research programme’. The volume casts empirical light on the causes of the crisis in these cases as well as the past legacies conditioning their responses to the crisis. Its conclusions point to variegated patterns of Europeanisation in different policy areas across Southern Europe. This volume will be of interest to students and scholars of European integration, European political economy, European public policy and comparative politics as well as specialists of Southern Europe. This book was published as a special issue of South European Society and Politics.
