Liberal democracy has become a major force shaping the structure and function of all the welfare societies for the same reason we invented armchair, alarm clock and calculator to make life easier. The architects of the welfare state, in their wildest dreams, would never have imagined that the objectives of the welfare state could produce such an extraordinary number of people with dependency and poor mental health. How did the transparent, orderly and modern welfare state form a public habit and build a culture of dependency?

The WELFARE EPIDEMIC is about the story of ordinary people and places where social safty net continues to be the reality of life. It explores the building block of the welfare state not merely with conventional economic tools but with analysis of social and welfare institutions. It traces the links between poor mental health and social welfare programs.
