Which one of the following approaches is also known as the Marxist, neo Marxist or conflict approach ?

  • A.Radical socialist approach
  • B.Social democratic approach
  • C.Racist approach
  • D.Right approach

Answer: A

The Marxist, neo-Marxist or conflict approach is the radical socialist approach.

In theories of social welfare and social policy, the radical or Marxist approach sees the welfare state as shaped by class conflict under capitalism: welfare both meets workers' needs and helps to preserve the capitalist system, and real welfare requires structural change in the ownership of resources.

The social democratic approach accepts the market economy but uses the state to reduce inequality, and the right or new right approach favours a minimal state and market solutions. 'Racist approach' is not a school of welfare theory.
