The Golden Age of postwar capitalism has been eclipsed, and with it seemingly also the possibility of harmonizing equality and welfare with efficiency and jobs. In his first major book since The Three Worlds of Welfare Capitalism, Europe's leading analyst of the welfare state presents a provocative examination of postindustrial economies at the end of the twentieth century.

Klappentext
Gosta Esping-Andersen, Europe's leading analyst of the welfare state, presents a provocative examination of postindustrial economies at the end of the twentieth century. This book takes a second look at the driving forces of economic transformation in a more sociological and institutional way. As a result, what stands out is postindustrial diversity, not convergence.rn
