This book assesses the diversity of policies and programs for older people in six contrasting European countries. Using a common descriptive and analytical framework, the book examines how the organization and delivery of care are shaped by the larger welfare system. Detailed case studies illustrate key features of social care in Britain, Italy, Greece, Ireland, Denmark, and Norway. The authors conclude by showing how the concept of social exclusion can inform service development.
