Since the late 1980s welfare policies in France and the United States have increasingly been shaped by a strong emphasis on citizens' obligations to work and be independent, and a weakening of entitlements to income maintenance

This work provides an analysis of the development and structure of modern welfare programmes and how they function. The dynamics of welfare reform are covered by focusing on two programmes - the Revenu Minimum d'Insertion in France and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families in the USA.
