This book examines how and to what extent the European Employment
Strategy and the Open Method of Coordination (OMC) on Social
Protection and Social Inclusion have influenced national labour
market and social welfare policies. Focusing on the implementation
of the OMC in different national environments, this book examines
how the proposals and targets of the OMC are interpreted and
implemented within the context of existing national employment and
welfare regimes. At a theoretical level and on the basis of
national case studies, the book considers how OMC objectives,
guidelines, targets, and recommendations may reshape the domestic
institutional framework, how learning and participation of
governmental bodies are organized across different hierarchical
levels, and how non-state actors may be involved in the formulation
and implementation of national reform plans. The authors conclude
that the OMC has contributed significantly to both substantive and
procedural reforms, in spite of the many institutional barriers to
Europeanization in this policy area. Featuring comparative case
studies across a number of European states, this book will be of
interest to students and scholars of sociology, political science,
public policy, and international relations.
