  • Assessing the Social Investment Strategy
    International conference Call for papers Assessing the social investment strategy Lausanne, 10 and 11 April 2014 Over the last few years, the notion of social investment has gained prominence in debates on social policy and welfare reform. This perspective has informed many recent debates and reforms in several European countries, and is actively supported by international organisations such as the OECD. Recently, it has received a renewed impetus with the adoption of a “Social investment package” by the European Commission. One key specificity of “investment” oriented social policies is the fact that they are based on a life course perspective on social problems. Unlike traditional policies, which are based on interventions “here and now”, social investment policies focus on the roots of social problems emphasising prevention rather than cure, prepare rather than repair, hence the emphasis on support for children and investment in human capital. The social investment strategy has been endorsed by many social policy experts. However, in recent years, a few studies have also pointed to its limitations. For example, it has been shown that many of the interventions associated with social investment, such as childcare or training for instance, are benefitting individuals already in employment more than those out of employment. There is a suspicion that social investment policies are more useful for middle class individuals and families than for the poorest ones. In addition, it has also been argued that gender equality is often forgotten in the various social investment concrete proposals or implementation. Against this background, the conference aims to bring together scholars who have studied the various aspects of the social investment strategy and advance our collective understanding of the issues at stake.
