Religion and the western welfare state : the theoretical context / Philip Manow and Kees van Kersbergen -- Western European party systems and the religious cleavage / Thomas Ertman -- The religious foundations of work-family policies in western Europe / Kimberly J. Morgan -- Italy : a Christian democratic or clientelist welfare state? / Julia Lynch -- Religion and the welfare state in the Netherlands / Kees van Kersbergen -- A conservative welfare state regime without Christian democracy? The French État-Providence, 1880-1960 / Philip Manow and Bruno Palier -- Religion and the consolidation of the Swiss welfare state, 1848-1945 / Herbert Obinger -- The church as nation? The role of religion in the development of the Swedish welfare state / Karen M. Anderson -- The religious factor in U.S. welfare state politics / Jill Quadagno and Deana Rohlinger -- Religious doctrines and poor relief : a different causal pathway / Sigrun Kahl.

This book radically revises established knowledge in comparative welfare state studies and introduces a new perspective on how religion shaped modern social protection systems. The interplay of societal cleavage structures and electoral rules produced the different political class coalitions sustaining the three welfare regimes of the Western world. In countries with proportional electoral systems the absence or presence of state-church conflicts decided whether class remained the dominant source of coalition building or whether a political logic not exclusively based on socio-economic interests (e.g. religion) was introduced into politics, particularly social policy. The political class-coalitions in countries with majoritarian systems, on the other hand, allowed only for the residual-liberal welfare state to emerge, as in the US or the UK. This book also reconsiders the role of Protestantism. Reformed Protestantism substantially delayed and restricted modern social policy. The Lutheran state churches positively contributed to the introduction of social protection programs.
