ABSTRACT
This paper examines a possible paradigm shift from protective welfare states to investment welfare states, using Spain as a case study. Methodologically, a historical-institutionalist approach to paradigm change was adopted, and three dimensions of analysis were studied problems to be solved, objectives to be achieved and policies to be used. The main findings indicated there has been a quantitative change in Spain that recommodifies living conditions, and a qualitative reorientation is underway that individualizes risks and social protection.
RESUMEN
En este trabajo se examina el posible cambio de paradigma desde el Estado del Bienestar Protector hacia un Estado del Bienestar Inversor, tomando a España como estudio de caso. Metodológicamente se adopta un enfoque histórico-institucionalista sobre el cambio de paradigmas, y se aplican tres dimensiones de análisis problemas a resolver, objetivos a conseguir y políticas a emplear. El principal resultado es que en España se ha producido un cambio cuantitativo que remercantiliza las condiciones de vida, y está en marcha una reorientación cualitativa que individualiza los riesgos y la protección social.
