“…The globalised service economies of the twenty-first century have also overseen complex shifts in which some of the work of care has moved from the domestic context into the paid workforce and formal sphere; and sometimes back again, in a process increasingly identified by researchers as 'refamilialization' (Deusdad et al, 2016;Peng and Yeandle, 2017 forthcoming).…”

“…More latterly, care has also become important in many countries as a traded service, operating either within formally regulated labour markets or as part of 'grey', unregulated, and informal Comparative analysis in scholarship on care and caring has begun to explore what can be learned by contrasting developments in different countries and in different types of welfare system. Examples include work on reconciling paid work and unpaid care (Lechner and Neal, 1999;Perrons et al, 2007; Kröger and Yeandle, 2013); comparative analysis of European long-term care systems (Ranci and Pavolini, 2013;Deusdad et al, 2016); and concepts and values in care and social policy (Anttonen et al, 2012;Michel and Peng, 2012).

IntroductionThe International Journal of Care and Caring (IJCC) commences publication with the present issue. In this opening editorial article we set out our vision for the new journal, which -as we will show -creates a timely and significant new space for critical engagement with global scholarship, policy and practice on care and caring. The article has three aims: to describe what will be distinctive and different about the International Journal of Care and Caring; to highlight our ambitions for it, including our determination that the new journal will have genuine global reach and international impact; and to explore some of the many different dimensions of research, scholarship and debate on care and caring which we hope to see further explored and developed in future issues of IJCC.As members of IJCC's Editorial Team, each of us has contributed to the founding concept for the journal, described here. We have been guided in this by our shared conviction that care and caring is a topic of huge and growing importance. We are persuaded, too, that within care and caring there is scope for significant theoretical and empirical development, and a real need for a new journal in which international scholarly debate on care and caring, based in sound research and scholarly endeavour, can emerge and thrive. We also believe that robust evidence and scholarship have the capacity to influence policy, practice and public discourse about care and caring, and in so doing to shape a more positive lived reality of caring relations and contexts around the world. 2These convictions underpin the vital and challenging agenda which lies before scholars and other researchers in the field of care and caring, in whichever part of the globe they and their studies are located. As we will explain, care and caring are central to human life and relations; associated with a wide range of emotions (spanning, for example, grief to joy, patience to exasperation, fear to security; and living and dying); and also -especially as the capacity to extend and save lives increases -have profound implications for the distribution of human, economic and other resources, in global, national and local contexts.Together we have sought international support for the idea of a new journal on care and caring across multiple disciplines, bringing the International Journal of Care and Caring to fruition as a new journal of the Policy Press. Giving it their strong support, distinguished scholars from diverse disciplines have highlighted the unique contribution IJCC can make, describing it as 'long overdue', 'exciting', 'timely and significant', and as a development which will 'bring a new level of scholarship and attention to issues facing our humanity for the future'. They also highlight its capacity to provide 'an important international and interdisciplinary evidence base'; to become 'essential reading' for 'academics, policy makers and practitioners interested in the complexities and nuances of care and caring'; and to 'create new synergies for the rising ...

“…Institutional care has come to be seen (Colombo et al, 2011;Deusdad et al, 2016a). As a result, many governments in Europe have issued policy documents and programmes that promote deinstitutionalisation, such as the 'National action plan for the transition from institutional to community-based care 2012-15' (Národný akčný plán prechodu z inštitucionálnej na komunitnú starostlivosť v systéme sociálnych služieb na roky [2012][2013][2014][2015] in Slovakia.…”

Long-term care is being prioritised due to population ageing, and hand in hand with the development of professional provision of long-term care, public expenditures will be increasing. Mainly countries with a sharp increase in the number of people aged 80+ will have to address the sustainability of long-term care systems and the procurement of relevant services. This paper aims to evaluate the forms of provision and financing of long-term care in selected OECD countries. Provision and funding of longterm care in terms of a formal system are assessed based on selected criteria using analytical methods (principal component analysis and TwoStep cluster analysis). Results of the evaluation carried out in 2008 and 2013 by means of the selected indicators of longterm care, using TwoStep cluster analysis, confirmed both similar as well as different approaches to the provision and financing of long-term care in the analysed countries. The most marked differences in the provision of care based on indicators LTC recipients aged 65+ and LTC recipients in institutions as a percentage of total LTC recipients were found between the first cluster (Australia and Korea with the highest share of LTC recipients) and the second cluster (Czech Republic, Estonia, with the lowest share of LTC recipients). In financing of long-term care (LTC expenditures on institutions as a percentage of total LTC expenditures), the most significant differences were observed between the first (Australia, Korea, with the largest share of LTC expenditures on institutions) and third cluster (mainly Nordic countries, with the lowest share of LTC expenditures on institutions of total LTC expenditures).
