Social Europe: A Continent's Answer to Market Fundamentalism


Add your own review!

Overview

European integration is more, much more, than the economic integration of markets. It has, and needs, a strong political dimension. In future debates about the European Social Model we cannot dilute the universal objectives of economic democracy and social justice. Indeed, social democrats need to emphasise the primacy of politics; and, within politics, the primacy of democracy. Bringing together a number of high-profile authors, this book seeks to illuminate the discussion about Europe?s social dimension with both free academic thinking and ?hands on? policy prescriptions

"""The future of the European Union is more uncertain than perhaps at any point since its foundation. At issue is not just the future constitution for Europe but the sustainability of the social model itself. This book provides a constructive new look at these issues and shows that the way forward is not just building on existing achievements but innovating across new institutional dimensions"" David Held Graham Wallas Chair of Political Science London School of Economics ""Against the naysayers who see the collapse of Social Europe in the face of neoliberal globalisation, this book provides a surprisingly powerful antidote. Even as they grapple with the serious challenges facing European society, the high-profile authors of this volume together project a democratic and social vision that is at once optimistic and realistic"" Lowell Turner Professor of International and Comparative Labor School of Industrial and Labor Relations Cornell University"
