Who's Afraid of the Welfare State Now?

Beschreibung

This book primarily explores the welfare-policy responses to the Great Recession, reform trajectories that swept across Europe over the last decade, with a final chapter that focuses on Covid-19 welfare management. It shows that the future of work and welfare can be shaped to provide inclusive social security and to fight poverty and inequality.
