| description | Why did some economies experience a boom in the 1990s? Employment 'Miracles' comparatively analyses select miracle economies. The contributors to the volume critically analyze how the small size and institutional structure of seven countries like the Netherlands, Denmark and Ireland accounted for their success and status as economic models. Comparisons with the American and German markets reveal how differing policies - liberal versus corporatist/social democratic - determine job growth and levels of income inequality and poverty. The book also stresses the explanatory relevance of lucky circumstances such as the housing price bubble. Employment 'Miracles' is an important resource for political scientists and economists in their study of employment development. |

Employment 'Miracles' is an important resource for political scientists and economists in their study of employment development. Was de 'miraculeuze' ontwikkeling van de werkgelegenheid in de jaren '90 en net na de eeuwwisseling in onder andere Australië, Nederland en Denemarken inderdaad een wonder, of lag hieraan een uitgekiende strategie ten grondslag? Meestal wordt de oorzaak gezocht in het economisch beleid en de loonmatiging zoals vastgelegd in cao's, die een toenemende export en een afnemende werkloosheid tot gevolg zouden hebben gehad. Dit vijfde deel in de serie "http://www.aup.nl/do.php?a=show_visitor_booklist&b=series&series=29">Changing Welfare States laat zien dat toevallige omstandigheden minstens zo belangrijk zijn voor de banengroei als een weloverwogen beleid. Opvallend is vooral de invloed van een sterke huizenmarkt op de economische groei en werkgelegenheid. Loonmatiging, vaak beschouwd als doorslaggevende factor, maakt daarentegen weinig verschil. Hetzelfde geldt voor neoliberale stokpaardjes als het snijden in de uitkeringen en flexibilisering van de arbeidsmarkt om een sterke concurrentiepositie te behouden. Becker en Schwartz laten zien dat de meeste van de onderzochte landen, vooral Scandinavische, door de handhaving van een genereus sociaal bestel een reëel alternatief bieden voor de dominante liberale weg naar werkgelegenheidsgroei. 2021-02-10T12:58:18Z 2010-12-31 23:55:55 2019-12-10 14:46:32 2020-04-01T15:34:33Z 2005 book 340206 OCN: 60800055 http://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/35140 9789053567555 https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/33435 eng Changing Welfare States open access image/jpeg image/jpeg image/jpeg image/jpeg n/a n/a n/a n/a https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/35140/1/340206.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/35140/1/340206.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/35140/1/340206.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/35140/1/340206.pdf Amsterdam University Press 10.5117/9789053567555 10.5117/9789053567555 de2ecbe7-1037-4e96-8c3a-5a842d921e04 9789053567555 288 open access |
