Abstract

This article performs a theoretical description of the concepts of social policy and globalization highlighting the correlation between the two most important aspects of modern society – the social policies and globalizations – aspects that influences the entire modern society. We focus on the definition and evolution of social policies, analyzing its perspectives and it’s contrasting models or features. We also present the definition of globalization emphasizing one of its more important effects, namely increasing social inequalities, social and geographical polarization. The article also points out the impact of globalization on social policies, the arguments justifying the maintenance and development of social policies and the role of social policy in a globalized world.
