The Neoliberalism, as much in its theoretical doctrine as in its political praxis, has defended de dismantling of the Welfare State. The denominated Globalisation that it has promoted synthetizes the whole economic, political, social & cultural changes happened during the last decades. Despite the denomination & intensity of this mercantilizer process, the Welfare State hasn't been removed, although it has suffered changes. The impossibility to carry out this elimination is due mostly to economic reasons but also political, social & cultural ones. Adapted from the source document.

The arrival to the government of a social & liberal cabinet in Spain in 2004 has meant a great step forward, though unequal & insufficient, in the field of the policies on citizenship rights. This breakthrough has been rather intense referring to civil rights, but limited & erratic on political rights and, above all, on social rights. There has been a remarkable improvement on those rights that formally enlarge individual rights of citizenship, but this hasn't brought any considerable change on the social, economic & political Spanish structure and, what is more, with a low cost to the Exchequer Thus, if the Zapatero Administration has shown any soundness, this has been more on the expansion of those typical liberal rights, the civil ones, than on those that could be considered more clearly republican and/or socialist.
