Özet
Sosyal devletin en önemli görevlerinin başında halkın refahını yükseltmesi gelmektedir. Bu bağlamda devlet, halkın sosyal güvenliğinin sağlanmasında vazgeçilmez unsurdur. Sosyal güvenliğin primli ve primsiz olmak üzere iki rejimi bulunmaktadır. Primsiz rejim genel olarak devletin vergilerle finanse ettiği ve karşılıksız ödemelerden oluşan sistemdir. Bu çalışmada sosyal güvenliğin primsiz rejimi kapsamında yer alan sosyal yardım üzerinden Türkiye’de sosyal devletin teoride ve uygulamada ne durumda olduğu incelenmiştir. Bu inceleme zihniyet, mevzuat, kurumsal yapı, uygulama ve denetim kapsamında yapılmış ve Türkiye’de sosyal devletin teoride (mevzuat, kurumsal yapı) var olduğu fakat uygulamada (hak temelli sosyal yardım, sosyal harcama, denetim) tam anlamıyla bir sosyal devletten bahsedilemeyeceği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
