Title
Making Markets in the Welfare State: The Politics of Varying Market Reforms (Cambridge Studies in Comparative Politics),New
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Over the past three decades, market reforms have transformed public services such as education, health and care of the elderly. Whereas previous studies present markets as having similar and largely nonpolitical effects, this book shows that political parties structure markets in diverse ways to achieve distinct political aims. Leftwing attempts to sustain the legitimacy of the welfare state are compared with rightwing wishes to limit the state and empower the private sector. Examining a broad range of countries, time periods and policy areas, Jane Gingrich helps readers make sense of the complexity of market reforms in the industrialized world. The use of innovative multicase studies and indepth interviews with senior European policymakers enriches the debate and brings clarity to this multifaceted topic. Scholars and students working on the policymaking process in this central area will be interested in this new conceptualization of market reform.
