Integrating Varieties of Capitalism and Welfare State Research

Viac o knihe

The book presents a unified typology of capitalist diversity by merging Esping-Andersen's welfare regime typology with Hall and Soskice's 'Varieties of Capitalism' framework. It empirically demonstrates that specific welfare states are associated with particular production systems, highlighting the interconnections between social policy and economic structures. This analysis offers a comprehensive understanding of how different capitalist models operate and interact within various welfare contexts.
