ABSTRACT

This paper deals with the three main features that underpin family policy in Spain today, namely privatisation,

inclusion in the sphere of welfare, and fragmentation, placing them in the broader context of the development of this

component of social policy. The author contends that we are witnessing a shift in the political arena, marked by an

increasing awareness of the need to redirect the current thrust of family policy. The article goes further into the study

of how the state provides for dependent relatives in different family situations, from the viewpoint of, on the one hand,

comparisons with other countries and, on the other, of the risk of skidding into poverty that results from the presence

of dependent relatives. (PubHealth.info Document ID: CONT2T 3015-06)
