Abstract

The debate on social policy and the welfare state is gaining strength from very different fields. The economic crisis has brought a deep economic recession, public deficit and high unemployment rates that has called into question the viability of the euro zone. The Welfare State has grown to become a concern for the overall economy. A new challenge is presented to the economy at the dawn of the twenty-first century: the ability to collaborate with the implementation of state enabler in Europe while being able to produce work from welfare services in an efficient and sustainable way. To ensure the sustainability of welfare services is necessary to apply the criteria of the market management model. Because of that, the third sector organizations such as non-profit entities, cooperatives, foundations, etc., should take the lead.
