Book Description
El presente trabajo ofrece una visión general sobre la materia de bienestar social, adentrándose en su delimitación conceptual; las formas históricas de protección social; las necesidades sociales, respuestas y satisfacción de las mismas; la relación de ciudadanía y servicios; y una breve descripción de las ideologías. Se toma como punto de partida la evolución en España y posteriormente se estudia las tipologías y regímenes de bienestar en América Latina. Por otra parte la problemática del adulto mayor en los países latinoamericanos del Cono Sur (Argentina, Brasil, Chile, Paraguay y Uruguay) es un hecho, y por ello este libro interpreta las causas y características del proceso de envejecimiento a la vista de la disponibilidad de medios en un contexto evolutivo, diseña y propone sobre esta base acciones y actuaciones que responden a las características y condicionantes del entorno económico y social en el que se pretende aplicar. Este estudio propone impulsar el diseño y aplicación de medidas, actividades y actuaciones, que respondan directamente a la situación actual y futura de cada país del Cono Sur, ajustadas al comportamiento de la economía y al nivel de crecimiento de la misma. La intención subyacente a la misma es la de huir de la reproducción de medidas aplicadas en otros contextos, totalmente ajenas a la realidad del Cono Sur y de cada país en concreto, que alientan esperanzas y deseos, pero que no son sostenibles desde el punto de vista económico y social. Respondiendo a estos planteamientos han sido elaboradas algunas conclusiones al respecto, así como la proposición de algunas recomendaciones.

Book Description
A New York roofer requests payment in cash. A Bogota car mechanic sets up "shop" on a quiet side street. Four Mexican immigrants assemble semiconductors in a San Diego home. A Leningrad doctor sells needed medicine to a desperate patient. All are part of a growing worldwide phenomenon that is widely known but little understood. The informal or underground economy is thriving today, not only in the Third World countries where it was first reported and studied but also in Eastern Europe and the developed nations of the West. The Informal Economy is the first book to bring together studies from all three of these settings and to integrate them into a coherent theoretical framework. Taking an international perspective, the authors dispel a number of misconceptions about the informal economy. They make clear, for instance, that it is not solely a province of the poor. Cutting across social strata, it reflects a political and economic realignment between employers and workers and a shift in the regulatory mission of the government. Throughout, the authors' theoretical observations serve not only to unify material from diverse sources but also to map out directions for further research.
