Development and Inequity: The Case of Tubuai, a Welfare Economy in Rural French Polynesia

Social scientists note that development encourages the growth of wealth differences and structured social inequality in peasant communities. Recognizing this, some have advocated welfare and equity-oriented development strategies. It is proposed that development on Tubuai, an island society dominated by a welfare economy, approximates such strategies and that this case can be examined to assess their value. The structure of household socioeconomic differentiation which has emerged in response to new economic opportunities is described. The paper then examines the impact of a new potato cash-cropping project, documenting the structure of differential participation and isolating household level factors which are strongly associated with variable levels of development participation.

Nonetheless, important theoretical insights into the social structural interplay of social development, stratification and aging have emerged which have relevance to welfare policymakers and practitioners.]

American welfare strategies: Three programs under the social security act

In the United States, a single piece of legislation, the Social Security Act, is the major vehicle through which the cash assistance to citizens is provided. This act contains many subprograms, programs so different in concept, administration and programmatic implication that many people do not know that the same piece of legislation makes them all possible. In this paper three programs—“social security,” “unemployment compensation,” and “public assistance”—are examined in a sociohistorical, sociocultural context. The roots of these programs are analyzed, their current operations outlined, and the policy problems currently confronting them are detailed. The ways in which the programs relate to the political mythology of the society is seen as important. Because of the continual conflicts arising out of the administration of public assistance, three special cases involving that program are mentioned.
