Ley 39/2006 of 14 December 2006 creating the Sistema para la Autonomía y Atención a la Dependencia (SAAD) — Spain's universal long-term care system providing cash benefits, in-kind services, and residential-care access for dependent persons, financed jointly by state and autonomous communities. Often described as Spain's "fourth pillar" of the welfare state after health, pensions, and education. Roll-out extended over 2007-2015 with progressive inclusion of dependency grades.
Per invariant 3, reforms are scored by what they did on each channel-separated axis, not by the party that enacted them. This fingerprint is how the policy-match engine finds historical analogues.
Explicit links are curated by the author. Inferred links are hypotheses in the library that test the same axes this policy moved — the framework's answer to "what does the data say about a policy like this?".
Ranked by axis-fingerprint overlap with this policy. Direction match bolded — those are the closest historical analogues. Shape of the match is what drives policy-outcome comparison, not the country or party label.
