 note = {The COVID-19 pandemic has created fertile ground for welfare state reform all over the world. Especially in south Europe, where the welfare state has a limited reach and depends a lot on the family for welfare provision, recent changes in cultural views of the woman’s “moral responsibility” to take on caretaking duties, as well as chronically low political trust, have changed attitudes towards the existing welfare state. Whether these attitudes are changing with the prospect of reform of such an undesirable welfare state is examined. Specifically, the effect of cultural values and willingness to pay taxes on attitudes towards a newly introduced welfare policy during COVID-19 is analyzed. A survey conducted in August and September of 2021 in Cyprus focusing on elderly care shows that the more liberal cultural values of the family model are, the more agreement there is with the continuation of the policy, while less willingness to pay taxes is associated with less agreement with its continuation. This has implications for the future of welfare state reform in southern Europe.},
