Recenzii

"Ivan Harslof and Rickard Ulmestig have compiled an excellent collection of studies that take a hard look at how different Nordic countries respond to changing social risks. This book brings a corrective lens to bear on policies related to market oriented management techniques, activation, privatization, decentralization, working-time regulations, support of lone parents, and assimilation of newly arrived immigrants. As such it offers an original view which highlights the impact of an emerging neo-liberal agenda on the Nordic responses to new social risks. A remarkable contribution to the typically idealized view of Nordic welfare states, this volume represents an example of critical analysis at its best." - Neil Gilbert, Chernin Professor of Social Welfare, University of California, USA
