Resumo(s)
This study conducts a comparative analysis of welfare state universalism in three East Asian
democracies - Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan - using the novel Quality of Welfare State Index
proposed by Luciano Amaral and Kleoniki Alexopoulou. The literature posits various welfare
state regime models for East Asian nations, prompting an exploration of unique characteristics
within this group. Japan emerges as the most universal, followed by Taiwan, whereas South
Korea shows markedly lower values. The divergence in their universalism trajectories
challenges proposals for a single welfare state regime to characterize these countries.
