abstract: 'This article assesses the extent to which welfare states reduce poverty
among single mothers and all mothers. I focus on two different
typologies of welfare states: one identifies the gendered assumptions
underlying social policies, while the other focuses on bow welfare
states and labor markets affect class inequality. Using data from the
Luxembourg Income Study, I show bow tax and transfer systems and
employment supports in nine Western nations affect the poverty rates of
single mothers and all mothers vis-a-vis other groups. I find that,
particularly in the Scandinavian nations and to a lesser extent in
France, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom, the tax and transfer
system, employment supports, or a combination of the two allow most
single mothers to form autonomous households that escape poverty. I
conclude by discussing bow these findings speak to the different
typologies of welfare state regimes.'
