About Social Policy Master Program

Social policy includes an academic analysis of the policies which aim at increasing the welfare level of the citizens and of the activities which are realized within this direction. The main goal of these policies is to ensure a socially and economically fairer share and the way of use, that would carry economic activity into further levels, of sources distributed by the market mechanism. Processes like instability, unbalanced growth and income distribution anomalies which threaten many countries today, lead to an increase and deepening of social problems especially in the countries where social security institutions are weak. This situation anticipates an essential (radical) regulation of employment and labor markets, education, work life, health and social security systems, by taking the new problems and developments into consideration. It is possible to secure vital elements such as productivity, prolificacy, employment, development, social welfare and social reconciliation in a country, only by the development of strong and effective social policies.
