| Annotation | The contributors to the nine articles in this special issue of Social Policy & Administration attempt to explain reforms to long-term care, by focusing on a central issue of social policy in their respective countries. The first six articles examine the financing of long-term care (LTC) through health insurance or social insurance. The focus is on the individual models variously used in England, France, the Netherlands, Germany, and Central and South East Europe (CSEE - specifically, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia and Slovenia). The last three articles - on the "Latin Rim" (Italy and Spain), Sweden and Portugal - discuss reforms in the organisation of long-term care. (RH). |
