Building on Green and Janmaat's previous work on education,
equality and social cohesion, this book, now in paperback, analyses
the various mechanisms that hold different societies together and
how these are withstanding the strains of the current economic
crisis. In an original, and highly interdisciplinary, mixed method
approach, drawing on evidence from historical sociology, political
science and political economy, Green and Janmaat identify four
major traditions of social cohesion in developed western and east
Asian societies, each with specific institutional and cultural
foundations. An extensive statistical analysis of contemporary
administrative and attitudinal data for over 30 countries
demonstrates that there are still distinctive 'regimes of social
cohesion' in 'liberal, ' 'social market' and 'social democratic'
countries and that they achieve social bonding in quite different
ways. As the crisis of globalization unfolds in the wake of the
global financial crisis, social cohesion in each regime is
vulnerable at different points.
