Does the Cultural Context Really Shape Welfare? A Comparative Analysis
Presented to UK Social Policy Association Annual Conference 2013, Sheffield, July 9th
John Hudson*, Nam K. Jo* and Antonia Keung***
Abstract
Despite increasing attention recently paid to the role of culture within comparative welfare studies, empirical explorations of the impact of culture on social policy remain rare. One recent exception is Jo’s (2011) analysis of on an in-between level conception of culture based on the exploration of stable societal values using quantitative cross-national surveys of social values in high-income nations. In this paper we update and expand this framework by adding data from the most recent releases of the European Values Study and World Values Survey and by exploring a wider range of policy areas. In so doing, we address the underlining theoretical question of whether the cultural context really shapes welfare policies and conclude that there is strong evidence to support the ‘culture matters’ thesis.

meet with their
advisor to have
their initial
registration
hold removed.
Accuplacer: a
self-paced
computerized
test that can be
taken at the
testing center,
composed of
an English
component and
a Math
component.
ALL students must submit their
ACT/SAT scores in order to have the
hold removed.
IF you are under 21and your scores for
Math or English are below 19/500, you
must take Accuplacer.
IF you are over 21 and you do not have
ACT/SAT scores, you must take
Accuplacer.
IF your scores are more than 2 years old
for Math or 3 years old for English, you
must take Accuplacer.
IF you have AP or CLEP credits, you
must submit your test scores to UVU in
order to receive credit.
24. Removing Holds- Transfer
credit
Transfer credit
is especially
important for
critical classes,
such as
English, Math
and PSY 1010.
You may not
need the
placement
exam and/or
you don’t want
to repeat
courses!
For a complete
look at Transfer
Credit policies,
see
