Extract
Reflexive Democracy: Political Equality and the Welfare State. By Kevin Olson. Cambridge, MA: MIT Press, 2006. 288p. $35.00.
Recent work on the welfare state has largely focused on the role of welfare programs in state economies—their redistributive functions and their role in managing incentives for work. Reflexive Democracy marks a much-needed shift in focus, offering an analysis and then a reconstruction of the relationship between welfare programs and citizen participation.
