          Abstract

          Resumo Neste artigo buscamos analisar alguns dos principais indicadores da evolução do estado de bem-estar social em países da OCDE entre 1980 e 2016. Em particular, buscamos avaliar se a crise iniciada em 2007-2008 teria implicado em contração do estado social. Nossa análise se desdobra no estudo do comportamento de três dimensões: o gasto social, seu financiamento tributário e sua efetividade. Nossa investigação revela que o século XXI tem sido um período de expansão, com gastos crescentes e “catch up” de países retardatários. Em particular, todas as grandes áreas de política social sofreram aumentos, ao lado de apostas ainda incipientes em políticas sociais “ativas”. O gasto social tem sido financiado por um esforço tributário crescente, não de todo indiferente à progressividade, e tem se traduzido em crescente esforço de redistribuição. Contudo, desigualdades e pobreza avançam em ritmo superior.

          Abstract In this paper an attempt was made to analyze some of the main indicators of the evolution of the welfare state in OECD countries between 1980 and 2016. In particular, an assessment was made to evaluate if the so-called Great Recession starting in 2008 led to a contraction of the social state. The analysis focused on three dimensions: social expenditure, funding, and effectiveness. The conclusion drawn was that the twenty-first century has been a period of expansion, both in terms of social expenditure and the catch-up of the latecomers. In particular, all traditional areas of social policy have expanded in tandem with a slight increase in “active” social policies. The rise in social expenditure has been financed by increasing taxation not thoroughly alien to progressivity principles. Overall, it has been translated into an increased effort for redistribution. However, inequality and poverty are advancing at a higher rate.
