Summary

The authors have an outstanding understanding of the history of the German welfare state and are therefore not only able to describe its historical development. They skilfully combine the facts with the conceptual foundations and thus provide a well-founded overview of the genesis of the German welfare state, whose defenders they see themselves as. One should not expect solutions to the current and structural problems.
