The notion of the European Social Model (ESM) has been one of the
fastest growing in European political and academic discourse in
recent years. It is conventionally used to describe the European
experience of simultaneously promoting sustainable economic growth
and social cohesion. However, the concept has suffered from a lack
of clear definition. And where definitions have been found in the
literature, they do not necessarily converge. This book presents
the outcome of a project coordinated by the European Trade Union
Institute in which experts from different countries and social
scientific disciplines (sociology, political science and economics)
were invited to reflect on both the meaning and political status of
the concept of the ESM. In addition to analysing the ambiguities
and multiple meanings attributed to the concept, the authors unpick
the underlying assumptions and make use of a new approach - the ESM
as political project - with which European countries can build
consensus and share a common understanding. Offering a new
analytical framework and with new empirical evidence, "Unwrapping
the European Social Model" is essential reading for all those
involved in European social policy research, education, policy and
practice.
