Welfare states are a prominent feature of numerous societies, driven by the notion of ensuring a fundamental minimum of well-being for individuals. Nevertheless, the lived experiences of those seeking and receiving welfare payments often go unnoticed. This book aims to rectify this oversight by recognizing the inherent value, insight, and necessity of embracing lived experiences. Through qualitative interviews with 19 individuals receiving various working-age welfare payments in Ireland, the book delves into the realms of stigma, social reciprocity, and the concepts of the deserving and undeserving poor. By analyzing welfare conditionality within the Irish context, it sheds light on the complexities and nuances of the welfare system. This groundbreaking work not only challenges existing policies but also contributes to shaping and informing policy decisions both within Ireland and beyond.
