The book provides the first comprehensive comparative study of the
socio-political effects of the Great Recession amongst European
citizens. This book presents a detailed investigation of
heterogeneity in the population within countries with respect to
how citizens made sense of the crisis and how this impacted on
their livelihoods, outlooks and political engagement. It analyses
citizens' experiences of the economic crisis, the decline of living
standards and deprivation by structural location as well as
differences in economic outlooks. It examines the ways in which
citizens from different social groups were able to be resilient to
the effects of the economic crisis. Moreover, it shows how social
support and social capital emerging from social relations
contributed to resilience in the face of the crisis. It also
examines citizen attitudes in relation to various welfare policies
and to immigration and how support for populist parties are
differentiated within the population. The book also looks at the
impact of the crisis on different types of political action
challenging incumbent governments and protesting against austerity
policies.
