This book offers an innovative analysis of the ways in which the
relationship between citizens and welfare states - social
citizenship - becomes more dynamic and multifaceted as a result of
Europeanization and individualization.
Written by interdisciplinary contributors from politics,
sociology, law and philosophy, it examines the transformation of
social citizenship through a series of illuminating case studies,
comparing Nordic countries and other European nations.
Dealing with the following areas of national and European
welfare policy, legislation and practice:
- activation - reforms linking income maintenance and employment
promotion
- scope for participation of marginal groups in deliberation and
decision-making
- impact of human rights legislation for welfare and legal
protection against discrimination and social barriers to equal
market participation
- coordination of social security systems to facilitate
cross-border mobility in Europe
- pension reform - efforts to make pension systems
sustainable.
Citizenship in Nordic Welfare States will be of interest to
students and researchers of social policy, comparative welfare,
social law, political science, sociology and European studies.
