Special attention is given to the role of the aged as representative of the importance of ascription and middle-class groups in welfare growth. The authors conclude that the primary beneficiaries of welfare benefits are not the poor but middle income groups and that income inequality is reinforced by welfare spending.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eList of Contributors\u003cbr\u003e Preface\u003cbr\u003e Introduction: interests and institutions - forms of social regulation and public policy-making Peter Lange and Marino Regini\u003cbr\u003e Part I.
