在全球化、技术变革和人口老龄化的推动下,欧洲福利国家正在经历深刻的变革。更直接的是,大衰退的后果和前所未有的移民水平带来了额外的压力。这本书考察了福利国家在欧洲国家和欧盟层面的代表性范围内的转变,并考虑了社会政策可能的新方向。它回顾了占主导地位的新自由主义紧缩措施,并讨论了社会投资,反击,福利沙文主义和保护主义。它认为,形成福利国家发展的阶级团结和分裂不再强大。围绕着老年人和年轻人、妇女和男子、移民和居民之间的分歧,以及在一个新的、更具竞争力的世界中的赢家和那些感到被抛在后面的人之间的分歧,紧张关系正变得越来越重要。欧洲国家已进入政治不稳定时期,这反映在政策方向上。紧缩几乎在所有国家都占主导地位,但社会投资、保护主义、新凯恩斯主义干预和反击的模式因国家而异。该卷确定在这个最新的研究欧洲福利国家未来的趋同和差异的领域-基本阅读,以把握变化的步伐和方向。
European welfare states are undergoing profound change, driven by globalization, technical changes, and population ageing. More immediately, the aftermath of the Great Recession and unprecedented levels of immigration have imposed additional pressures. This book examines welfare state transformations across a representative range of European countries and at the EU level, and considers likely new directions in social policy. It reviews the dominant neo-liberal austerity response and discusses social investment, fightback, welfare chauvinism, and protectionism. It argues that the class solidarities and cleavages that shaped the development of welfare states are no longer powerful. Tensions surrounding divisions between old and young, women and men, immigrants and denizens, and between the winners in a new, more competitive, world and those who feel left behind are becoming steadily more important. European countries have entered a period of political instability and this is reflected in policy directions. Austerity predominates nearly everywhere, but patterns of social investment, protectionism, neo-Keynesian intervention, and fightback vary between countries. The volume identify areas of convergence and difference in European welfare state futures in this up-to-date study - essential reading to grasp the pace and directions of change.
