Reviews
the edited volume is a compelling account of the subject. Its theoretical framework is deployed consistently and coherently throughout the book, the chapters are strongly anchored by a historical account, are analytically consistent and provide diverse case-studies and levels of analysis. * Antonio Leitao, International Affairs *
The book contains timely, precious material and analysis that can contribute to the formulation of more socially and economically coherent policies across EU Member States and at the EU level. It is a must read book for policy-makers, the business sector, trade unions and NGOs concerned about the future of democracy and ensuring a sound economy underpinned by an equitable welfare state. * Hedva Sarfati, International Social Security Review *
