In this paper recent approaches to the role of social protection systems within economic development policies are discussed. Important experiences are considered, in particular those implemented in medium and low income countries, where new tools for increasing the effectiveness of social and development policies have been tried and tested. Some lessons are also examined that prove useful for defining mechanisms that enhance the quality of services provided by social enterprises in the Italian context.
The paper is available also in Italian: I nuovi strumenti delle politiche di welfare: esperienze internazionali e implicazioni per l’impresa sociale
