This book examines the increasingly international division of
labour, which promotes transnational integration. It analyses the
change in worker solidarity as it moves from collective national
welfare to a transnational inclusion of workers from various links
in the production chain.
Examining three types of welfare regimes within the USA,
Germany, Denmark and Sweden, the author addresses how and why
globalization is furthering the change from the welfare state to
the competition state. The book considers in particular the change
to solidarity taking place because of the internationalization of
labour division; a change away from the segmented and
differentiated system of nation states with strong internal
national solidarity to broader, more inclusive and cross-border
labour identity and inclusion. Analysing the deeper moral
consequences of a globalised labour society, such as the paradigms
of inclusion and justice, this book considers the implications of
transnational labour on national welfare politics, and looks at the
increasing significance of the transnational and national politics
of inclusion in social policy, education, minority rights,
immigration and gender equality.
Inclusion and Exclusion in the Liberal Competition State will be
of interest to scholars and students of political science,
sociology and social policy studying welfare state change.
