This illuminating book considers the roles of social partners in
regulating work and welfare through corporatist arrangements in
three countries - all of which have strong traditions for social
partner involvement. In the comparative study of Denmark, the
Netherlands and Austria, Mikkel Mailand illustrates how the
frequency of tripartite agreements has either been stable or has
increased since the Great Recession of 2008, in spite of challenges
from trade unions' loss of power and political developments. He
therefore demonstrates that social partners are still strong enough
to be included in corporatist arrangements. Moreover, the book
posits that economic crisis in a 30 year perspective appears a
stronger explanatory factor for corporatist development than social
partner strength, government strength and government ideology.
Using qualitative methods to offer a nuanced insight into
corporatism within these countries, Corporatism since the Great
Recession will be a useful read for both academics and students in
industrial relations, political economy and other social science
disciplines addressing the formulation of work and welfare related
policies.
