Abstract: "A key debate in the 1980s and 1990s revolves around the growing power of globalization and, in the European context, Europeanization." "Denmark, Norway and Sweden lie at the heart of this debate. With extensive welfare states, high levels of social rights, powerful social democratic parties and trade-union movements and strong economic performance records, they remain islands of social democratic success in an increasingly neoliberal economic ocean. Can this be maintained or are we witnessing the end of the social democratic era?" "This book attempts to answer this question by exploring the development of Scandinavian economic policy, welfare state/social policy and social democratic strategies."--Jacket.
