“…In fact, works dealing with regional social policy and welfare have bourgeoned. 31 Several comparative analyses have been produced, 32 and most works in this stream address either the case of Québec (Marier's 33 piece on Saskatchewan is an exception to Québec's predominance in the literature) or Scotland, with more limited attention to Belgium 34 and less so to other countries and regions. 35 For Québec, analyses tend to revolve around its exceptionalism and distinctive social policy model, as well as the interaction between provincial and federal policies.…”

Territory and solidarity are two central components of contemporary politics whose connection has come to be embodied in two quite different political phenomena: nationalism and the welfare-state. Nationalism is a form of politics linking territory (a homeland) to a special sense of solidarity deemed to supersede all others (i.e., non-national cleavages). The welfare state represents the tangible manifestation of social solidarity between citizens of a territorially-anchored community.

“…Another significant change in the implementation of social policies pertains to the rescaling of welfare states (Kazepov, 2010), namely the dispersion of authority towards public authorities either at the subnational (regional or local) or supranational (European) level. Rescaling has affected the type and efficiency of services delivered (Champio and Bonoli, 2011; Minas, 2014; Dupuy, 2020). It has also influenced citizens’ lived experiences and their related political participation and attitudes towards politics.…”

This article asks how the most prominent recent changes in European welfare states are relevant for citizens’ political participation and attitudes toward politics, specifically citizens’ political efficacy, political interest, political trust and attribution of responsibility. We consider changes in benefits, in the form of generosity levels and conditionality, and changes in modes of delivery, including both marketization and rescaling. Reviewing the policy feedback on mass publics literature, a mainly US-centric scholarship, the article suggests that the mostly negative impacts that are theoretically expected are to be qualified in the European contexts. The article thereby reflects on the contributions and limits to what can be learned from this body of research to illuminate European cases; and it derives a research agenda to study policy feedbacks on mass publics in western Europe.
