The impact of the establishment of the social security system on the European countries

The impact of the establishment of the social security system on the European countries is to a large extent to ease labor relations and class conflicts, relatively maintain political and social stability, to ensure sustained economic development, and obviously improve people's living standards. But there are still certain problems.

At present, the social security system implemented by European countries can be roughly divided into "social welfare type" and "social security type" two models.

European countries have formed a set of cradle-to-grave social security system. This perfect social security system has largely eased labor-management relations and class conflicts, relatively maintained political and social stability, ensured sustained economic development, and significantly improved people's living standards. For example, between the 1950s and the early 1980s, the population of the United Kingdom increased by 20%, housing increased by 57%, the average life expectancy of men increased by 19%, and most people owned their own homes, automobiles, home appliances, and so on. Of course, the capitalist system could not rely on social security to inject new blood, but on the contrary, it caused a lot of problems, such as the economic development of the United Kingdom after the 1970s in the emergence of the "British disease".
