Summary: In the past five decades Europeans have transformed high taxes into a protection net which goes from the crib to the tomb. “Europe that protects” is the European Union motto. Nevertheless, the Welfare State has been suffering critics in Europe since the 1980s. The current situation of intense crises opens the possibility to question the existing Welfare State model from different viewpoints, raising doubts about the opportunity and viability of such State model. The objective of this paper is to promote the discussion about the limits and the near future of the Welfare State in the face of the international financial crisis.
