No development in European integration has aroused greater interest
or greater controversy in recent years than the Open Method of
Co-ordination (OMC), which has become an increasingly broadly
applied instrument of EU governance since its invention as part of
the « Lisbon Strategy in 2000. Yet it is widely agreed that the
debates surrounding the OMC suffer from a serious empirical
deficit. This book, based on an international research network
organised by the University of Wisconsin-Madison, the Observatoire
social europeen, and the SALTSA Programme, focuses on two highly
developed OMC processes, the European Employment and Social
Inclusion Strategies, concentrating on their operation and
influence at national and subnational levels. It comprises a
combination of national and comparative studies, covering eight
countries (Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the
Netherlands, Sweden, and the United Kingdom) and four transversal
themes (hard and soft law, participation, gender equality,
activation). These studies are framed by a historical overview of
the OMC's place in the construction of Social Europe, and by a
synthetic conclusion, which assesses the available evidence on the
OMC in action, and proposes a reflexive reform strategy for
realising its theoretical promise as a new mode of EU governance.
