Different Welfare State Models
Social policy analysts place Western welfare systems into one of three types: the ‘corporatist model’, ‘the social democratic model’ or ‘the liberal model’.
The corporatist model is typical of Europe (France, Germany, etc.). It is work-orientated being based on individual contributions. Features: • Companies and unions as partners
• Work-based benefits
• Emphasis on social solidarity
• Key role for voluntary sector

The liberal model found in the UK and US is based on a clear distinction between deserving and undeserving poor, with limits on benefit payments to potential workers. Features:
• Deserving v. undeserving poor
• Limited benefits and relatively low taxes
• Encouragement to stay in work
• Use of private sector if possible
