Description

This volume provides an up-to-date overview of activation strategies in unemployment benefit systems and social assistance in selected European countries and the United States. A particular focus lies on the development of activation schemes, governance and implementation as well as on the outcomes of activation in terms of labor market and social integration. The volume is the first to address these issues both from a socio-economic and a legal perspective. Review Aus den Rezensionen: “... Der Band schließt mit einer Bilanz, welche die Aktivierung als neues Element der Sozialpolitik der Staaten ansieht. Sie wird durch das Recht umfassend gefordert. Der Band gibt einen eindrucksvollen Einblick in eine komplexe Welt sozialer Reformen und analysiert die eingetroffenen Veränderungen überzeugend.“ (Prof. Dr. Dr. h. c. Eberhard Eichenhofer, in: ZESAR Zeitschrift für europäische Sozial- und Arbeitsrecht, 2009, Issue 5-6, S. 255) From the reviews: “Provides an overview of activation strategies in unemployment benefit systems and social assistance schemes in selected European countries and in the US. … The book provides a very good overview of different solutions, concepts and results of activation. It serves as valuable research tool and will be of great interest for scholars from social sciences, economics and law, as well as for those engaged in comparative studies.” (Stamatia Devetzi, European Journal of Social Security, Vol. 11 (3), 2009) “The book has a fairly standard format of an introduction, country specific chapters, and two summary style conclusions, one on evidence around activation and the other legal. … book has a novel legal angle, which will appeal to readers of this journal … it offers a description of emerging patterns of welfare reform that are fairly well documented elsewhere. … This book is especially for those who want the extra legal context that this book offers, which will include many readers of this journal.” (Paul Gregg, Comparative Labor Law & Policy Journal, Vol. 31 (1), 2009) From the Back Cover Over the last decade, many industrialized countries shifted from passive unemployment and welfare benefit regimes and traditional active labor market and social policies to activation strategies by making benefit receipt conditional upon accepting job offers or participation in active labor market schemes. But countries differ with regard to the design of activation instruments and their implementation, the definition of target groups and the effects of activation in the national labor market setting. This volume provides an up-to-date overview of activation strategies in unemployment benefit systems and social assistance in selected European countries and the US. A particular focus lies on the development of activation schemes, governance and implementation as well as on the outcomes of activation in terms of labor market and social integration. The volume is the first to address these issues both from a socio-economic and a legal perspective.
