The study of welfare arrangements is a fundamental part of what we do. Welfare states, and other institutions seeking to meet human need, everywhere face enormous challenges from population ageing, changes in family life and work-patterns, migration and the economic crisis. In a globalized and interdependent world, these issues can only be understood from an international perspective which accounts for these common pressures and processes, but which also recognizes and engages with the diversity of national traditions and institutions for delivering welfare.
