Title: Beyond the dependency culture
First published: 1998
Description: Twentieth-century capitalism and socialism propped each other up. Both belonged to the modern industrialized period of human history when the powerful interest groups of business and state dominated people, and Euro-American culture and power dominated the world. An emerging post-modern worldview foreshadows possibilities for a new path of progress, more deeply concerned for people and nature.

Based on articles and lectures, this collection explores what this new path of progress could mean for politics, work, welfare, health, energy, the life of families and neighborhoods, the world role of today's rich countries, and other aspects of the human predicament today.
Subjects: Poverty, Public welfare, Social change, Social problems, Welfare state, Aide sociale, Etat providence, Problemes sociaux, Changement social, Wohlfahrtsstaat, Pauvrete, Societe postindustrielle, Soziookonomischer Wandel, Aufsatzsammlung
