생태주의의 도전과 복지국가의 변화 = The Challenge From Environmentalism and the Changes of the Welfare State

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study aims to analyze the relationship between the environmentalism and the welfare state, and to describe what happens to the traditional welfare state as the ecological thinking gradually prevails. Several scholars argue that the expansion of the environmentalism inevitably reduces the welfare state because the anti-productivism of the environmentalism contradicts the pro-productivism of the welfare state. In contrast, this article suggests that the welfare state would not suffer a radical downsizing even in the ecological era, because the social support for the welfare state is still sound as well as because there are a lot of evidences showing that the environmentalism is not in a zero-sum relation with the welfare state. Rather, it is highly probable that the welfare state makes a coalition with the environmentalists in the sense that both of them are interested in a common good and are opposed to the neoliberalism. The key argument of this article is that the traditional welfare state, by accepting the ecological axioms, gradually transforms into the eco-welfare state, which pursues the protection of the environment and the establishment of environmental justice in addition to its original goal of the alleviation of social inequality through income redistribution. The change into the eco-welfare state means a partial adjustment or the adaption to the new environment by the traditional welfare state rather than its general decline.
