In many member countries, lesbian, gay, bisexual and transsexual (LGBT) people experience discrimination in all aspects of their lives, including civil status and social security. The interface of a plethora of civil statuses and benefit entitlement conditions means that same-sex partners exercising their right of free movement under the Treaty of Rome may find their status and entitlements changing as they move between different ‘rights regimes’, to the detriment of their social security coverage. The proposed new EU Directive on equal treatment may not prevent this discrimination although, if the Lisbon Treaty is ratified, the Charter of Fundamental Rights may provide a route and an opportunity to do so.\u0000","PeriodicalId":222777,"journal":{"name":"Benefits: A Journal of Poverty and Social Justice","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122110484","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It created the legal status of ‘civil partner’ and enabled same-sex couples for the first time to register their relationship and to gain a number of legally recognised rights and responsibilities. This article reports on the findings of a qualitative study that used in-depth interviews with members of same-sex couples to explore the personal impacts of this legislative change on their lives. The research suggests that the Civil Partnership Act has had significant positive impacts in terms of improving the lives of, and reducing perceived discrimination against, same-sex couples. It also highlights a range of effects of the legislation that for some couples were not desired.","PeriodicalId":222777,"journal":{"name":"Benefits: A Journal of Poverty and Social Justice","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132071662","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, assessment raises dilemmas: quality according to what criteria; quality for whom; and quality of what? It is proposed here that good quality means transformation in gender relations towards an equal distribution of paid and unpaid work, equal pay and de-segregation; that sensitivity to differences between women is required, but not the adoption of different quality standards; and that working towards the goal of transformation demands consideration of several interconnected policy arenas. Assessing quality is difficult; but it is possible – and it is crucial to achieving gender equality.\u0000","PeriodicalId":222777,"journal":{"name":"Benefits: A Journal of Poverty and Social Justice","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132533035","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Williams","doi":"10.51952/cnoh5654","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.51952/cnoh5654","url":null,"abstract":"The UK’s post-war benefit system, established following the report of William Beveridge, was based on the contributory principle of benefits being payable in return for contributions made. In 2000 the UK Parliamentary Select Committee on Social Security reported on the contributory principle concluding that it had been undermined in major part directly as a result of successive governments’ policies. In particular in the light of 2007 legislation, this article surveys reforms affecting the contributory principle that have been undertaken since the Committee’s report. It argues that erosion of the contributory principle has continued apace in the area of working-age benefits, but that, albeit in the long term, current policy in the area of pensions promises to take the system to an extent ‘back to Beveridge’ but also in a welcome but decidedly un-Beveridgean direction.","PeriodicalId":222777,"journal":{"name":"Benefits: A Journal of Poverty and Social Justice","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116606048","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The current social security system, which links non-earnings-related benefits to marriage, fails to protect some of the most vulnerable older Americans. This article presents a range of options, both inside and outside of the social security system, to address this problem. While most policy solutions focus on altering social security, there are solutions outside of the social security system. This article considers both the pitfalls and possibilities of poverty reduction policies both inside and outside of social security.","PeriodicalId":222777,"journal":{"name":"Benefits: A Journal of Poverty and Social Justice","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131192831","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
