Abstract

Esta nota de investigación examina comparativamente el cambio institucional reciente de los Estados del bienestar en los países del Sur de Europa. La irrupción de la crisis económica y financiera en 2008 dispuso un nuevo escenario para la reforma del bienestar. Los sistemas de protección social se enfrentaron a una coyuntura de transformación bajo condiciones de elevada presión política y económica. La respuesta a la crisis se asoció a la austeridad en el gasto público y al rediseño institucional de las provisiones de bienestar, con el objetivo de recuperar la estabilidad fiscal, la solvencia del sector público y la competitividad exterior. El efecto de las políticas de austeridad ha sido la aparición de senderos de transformación institucional diferenciados dentro del modelo de bienestar Mediterráneo.
