This volume represents the beginning of a 'cross pollination' of
different social scientific disciplines, bridging the boundaries
between national and disciplinary epistemic communities in the
worlds of European welfare markets. It maps the common ground and
uncovers new research directions for the future study of actors,
policies and institutions shaping the growth and dynamics of
European welfare markets. The book defines welfare markets as
politically shaped, regulated and state supported markets that
provide social goods and services through the competitive
activities of non-state actors. The chapters focus on what happens
after states have initiated welfare markets, with equal weight
given to the analysis of the agency of state actors and non-state
actors in the contraction, stabilisation, and disruption of welfare
markets. By focusing the analysis on two cases of welfare markets,
private pensions and home-based domestic/care work, the
contributions explore and compare the dynamics of different types
of markets. The research will be of use to sociologists and
scholars of social policy interested in the social dimension of
welfare markets, political scientists and political economists, as
well as diverse epistemic communities across the social sciences.
