I suspect that they are refering to Gosta Esping-Andersen's comparative analyses of welfare states which he published in 1989 in a book called The Three Worlds of Welfare Capitalism.  Anyone taking a Social Policy degree would be lucky to escape with only one lecture on the ideas in this book - it is invariably found on all core reading lists for Social Policy courses (including my own)

It would be useful to know what the organizers mean by ending welfare capitalism. This is because it is highly contentious terminology.
