Anne Gray presents a critical analysis of trends in European welfare systems and labour market policies. How and why are they changing? How do they affect the daily lives of those facing unemployment or precarious work? Gray shows how the idea of unemployment benefits as a right is evolving into a regime closer to American 'workfare’. She explains how this policy forces the unemployed into low paid, temporary or part-time jobs associated with the new `flexible’ labour market. Drawing on unemployed people’s own accounts of their experiences – in the UK, Germany, France and Belgium – Gray illustrates the job market as seen from the dole queue. She examines how the unemployed assess benefit rules and welfare-to-work programmes. Exploring the changing nature of work in Europe, Gray reveals why is there a shortage of full-time permanent jobs, what is to be done, and what the future holds for labour market regulation in Europe.Providing clear explanations about shifts in welfare policy, this book is ideal for trade unionists, activists and students, and makes an important contribution to wider debates on globalisation and the future of work.

The international economist Professor George Irvin argues that if the Euro is to survive, it needs to be run in a more sophisticated and flexible manner. Irvin believes that when the governing structures of the Euro were set up in the early 1990s, European governments were unduly influenced by monetarist ideas. In consequence, they set up a 'banker's euro' with excessive emphasis on combating inflation. Other economic goals such as growth and employment were subordinated to this preoccupation with monetary stability. Regaining Europe clearly sets out the mistakes made in setting up the Euro and argues that many of the EU's current political difficulties flow from these errors. It calls for national governments to reclaim European economic policy from the European Central Bank. Irvin believes that Europe's political crisis needs both a political and economic response, with a more politically directed Eurozone leading to both economic and political success for the EU and a reversal of the stalemate created by the French and Dutch referenda.

Why is neoliberalism winning out as a social policy in the European Union? This title demonstrates how, despite the commitment to 'Social Europe' that has been entrenched in the EU treaty framework since the late 1990s, neoliberal actors have successfully reframed the policy debates and affected the welfare policies adopted by the member states.

This book presents a comprehensive overview and critical analysis of the processes of liberalization and privatization, and their consequences for economic performance, social cohesion and political democracy in the European Union. It examines the main drivers and the various theoretical rationales for privatisation in the context of different schools of thinking. It argues on the basis of broad empirical evidence that privatisation in Europe, particularly the ongoing privatization of social services, undermines the basic elements of the different social models that have developed in Europe. These arguments are supported by a number of in-depth case studies, with specific focus on health care, education and finance. The authors of this volume advance from this critique and explore the basic requirements for a progressive public sector and its role for economic, social and democratic development. This book will be indispensable reading for all interested in Economic Policy, Public Sector Economics, European Integration and Political Science.
