'Drawing on the development of economic sociology over the past 40
years, this book brings together leading scholars to explore the
relationship between social institutions on economic processes.
Inspired in particular by the innovative and creative dimensions of
Colin Crouch's work, they signpost directions for future research.
It will be an important reader for international scholars exploring
the unfolding dimensions of contemporary relations in economy and
society.' - Jacqueline O'Reilly, University of Brighton Business
School, UK While an economy is always 'embedded' in society, the
relationship between the two is undergoing profound changes in
Europe, resulting in widespread instability which is emphasised by
the current crisis. This book analyzes these changes, and in
particular pressures of intensifying international competition,
globalization and financialization within Europe. Combining the
perspectives of economic sociology, political economy and political
science, the expert contributors offer an in-depth,
multidisciplinary insight to the functioning of a number of
institutional arenas around which European economies and societies
are organized. Areas explored include the state and public policy
at European national and regional level, the welfare state,
industrial relations systems, education systems and the family.
This challenging and thought provoking book will be of great
interest to a wide-ranging audience across a number of disciplines,
including European studies, political science, comparative
political economy, economic sociology, industrial relations and
social policy. Contributors: L. Burroni, R. Erne, H. Farrell, U.
