Philip Hanson , and Phillip Hanson Manufacturer: Longman ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback ASIN: 0582299586 |

The Year of the Euro: The Cultural, Social, And Political Import of Europe's Common Currency (Contemporary European Politics and Society)
Manufacturer: University of Notre Dame Press ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback ASIN: 0268028818 |
Book Description
"The euro has quickly become a world currency, and this excellent work explains how this came about. It does the job, not only by looking at the economic factors involved, but also at political, legal, social, and cultural factorsall in a very creative and readable manner." Richard Swedberg, Cornell University"If the nineteenth and twentieth centuries brought a dramatic nationalization of government-backed currencies across the world, does the euro's introduction in 2002 write finis to the era of nationalism? Here, superbly informed observers of European politics, economy, and social life debate that question from multiple perspectives, not only documenting the depth of the euro's challenge, but also mapping alternative futures for Europe. An illuminating intervention in a vital conversation." Viviana A. Zelizer, Lloyd Cotsen '50 Professor of Sociology, Princeton University
"This is one of the most interesting and original books in the burgeoning field of EU studies to have emerged in recent years. Its emphasis on the likely social and culturalnot just political and economicimpact of the euro at the national, subnational, and supranational levels is timely and refreshing. Tighly edited, this book should be essential reading for professional and amateur EU-watchers alike." Desmond Dinan, Jean Monnet Professor of Public Policy, George Mason University
"I know of no other books on the academic market that deal with the impact of the Euro on the political, economic, and social fabric of Europe. This volume is currently one-of-a-kind." Jeffrey Anderson, Georgetown University
The Year of the Euro examines the wide-ranging importance of Europe's new single currency beyond its impact on financial markets and the economy itself. On January 1, 2002, when the new currency began to circulate in the twelve participating member states of the European Union, the long move toward a supranational European framework for trade and institutions finally entered the fabric of daily life for hundreds of millions of citizens. The contributing authors to this highly readable and interdisciplinary volume offer a variety of perspectives on this extraordinary episode in currency change and European convergence. The book's essays offer the assessments of leading scholars of European affairsfrom the fields of history, political science, sociology, and lawas to whether the new common currency will reshape the continent's cultures, societies and political systems and, if so, in what ways. The discussions and debates found in these pages will inform those, within and outside academia, who are interested in the future of Europe and in the meaning of national currencies. The volume is also suitable for classroom use in courses on the European Union, cultural and economic sociology, comparative politics, and contemporary Europe.

Active Labor Market Policies in Europe: Performance and Perspectives
Jochen Kluve , David Card , Michael Fertig , Marek Góra , Lena Jacobi , Peter Jensen , Reelika Leetmaa , Leonhard Nima , Eleonora Patacchini , Sandra Schaffner , Christoph M. Schmidt , Bas van der Klaauw , and Andrea Weber Manufacturer: Springer ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 3540485570 |
Book Description
Measures of Active Labor Market Policy - such as training, wage subsidies, public employment measures, and job search assistance - are widely used in European countries to combat unemployment. Little, however, is known about what each country can learn from experiences in other countries. This study provides novel insight on this important policy issue by discussing the role of the European Commission's Employment Strategy, reviewing the experiences made in European states, and giving the first ever quantitative assessment of the existing cross-country evidence, answering the question "what labor market program works for what target group under what (economic and institutional) circumstances?". Using an innovative meta-analytical approach, the authors find that rather than contextual factors such as labor market institutions or the business cycle, it is almost exclusively the program type that matters for program effectiveness: While direct employment programs in the public sector appear detrimental, wage subsidies and "Services and Sanctions" can be effective in increasing participants' employment probability.
