Abstract
The rise of the modern welfare state has transformed the relationship between citizens and the state. A century ago, many ordinary people had only infrequent personal contacts with government institutions and employees. Abstractions such as “the state” or “the public sector” were given more meaning by the picture of the king on the wall, than by direct experiences with concrete government policies and services.
