Discussion of popular perception of the welfare state
It is perfectly correct to characterise the historical and popular perception [hence general perception] of the w.s. in anglophone countries as carrying stigma. This is the consensus of the academic literature, and is also consistent with any contemporary examination of press reports using the phrase. This is despite the fact that the UK moved to a more Scandinavian approach after WW II: this had a very short period of legitimacy in historical terms, which has now disappeared. Individual social policy programmes have varying degrees of popular support and probably much more should be written here about that. For the moment, I leave it as a brief comment on the perception of the phrase "welfare state". --Martin Baldwin-Edwards 11:36, 29 September 2007 (CDT)
