12. What is the solution? Revolution Reform

13. Reformism is a political doctrine advocating the reform of an existing system or institution instead of its abolition and replacement. Reformism is the view that gradual changes through existing institutions can eventually lead to fundamental changes in a society s political and economic systems. Reformism as a political tendency and hypothesis of social change grew out of opposition to revolutionary socialism, Socialism contends that revolutionary upheaval is a necessary precondition for the structural changes necessary to transform a capitalist system to socialist economic system.

14. Welfare reforms are changes in the operation of a given welfare system. The development of welfare in this approach is largely seen as a consequence of economic development of the society on the one hand and the acceptance of the moral responsibility of maintaining minimum standard of welfare on the part of the state on the other[1]. * [1] H.Y Siddiqui, (ed) 1990. Social Welfare in India. New Delhi: Harnam Publications. pp.4-5.

15. This approach has a national focus whereby problems and policies of a particular society are analyzed in the context of specific concerns of welfare the democratic state is expected to assume the responsibility of institutionalizing welfare rather than treating it as residual* Examples: BISP, Ghurbat Mukao Programme, Pakistan Poverty Alleviation Fund, PM Five Point Programme,
