Check out this special issue on Social Investments in the welfare state. We do indeed find that this logic has deep roots but also show it is always intertwined with other logics and so it should be evaluated contextually.
In the first article,
@aludvig.bsky.social and Troels Krarup question if the social investment logic is really new by looking at similar utilitarian ideas in Danish welfare politics from 1880 to 1940, and they find that such logics have deep roots.
