In this insightful collection, academic experts consider the impact
of neoliberal policies and ideology on the status of care work in
Nordic countries. With new research perspectives and empirical
analyses, it assesses challenges for care work including
technologies, management and policy-making. Arguing that there is a
care crisis even in the supposedly feminist Nordic ‘nirvana’,
this book explores understandings of the care crisis, the serious
consequences for gender equality and the hitherto neglected effects
on the long-term sustainability of the Nordic welfare states. This
astute take on the Nordic welfare model provides insights into what
the Nordic experience can tell us about wider international issues
in care.
