This collection of essays examines the promise and limits of social
rights in Europe in a time of austerity. Presenting in the first
instance five national case studies, representing the biggest
European economies (UK, France, Germany, Italy and Spain), it
offers an account of recent reforms to social welfare and the
attempts to resist them through litigation. The case studies are
then used as a foundation for theory-building about social rights.
This second group of chapters develops theory along two
complementary lines: first, they explore the dynamics between
social rights, public law, poverty and welfare in times of economic
crisis; second, they consider the particular significance of the
European context for articulations of, and struggles over, social
rights. Employing a range and depth of expertise across Europe, the
book constitutes a timely and highly significant contribution to
socio-legal scholarship about the character and resilience of
social rights in our national and regional constitutional settings.
