Flexicurity

This study, on the role of flexibility and security on labour market performance, argues that flexicurity is the most relevant approach for Central and Eastern European countries.

Welfare Regimes in South-Eastern Europe

It offers an account of labor market and long-term care policies in Serbia and Croatia, and it illuminates issues that have, thus far, not been at the center of international research interest, despite the pressing need.

Concilier Flexibilité Du Travail Et Cohésion Sociale

This, the second volume on labour flexibility, deals with how it can be reconciled with social cohesion. Following the Council of Europe's Forum 2005: Reconciling labour flexibility with social cohesion, it aims to present ideas useful for political action for integration with the European social model. It is divided into three parts. The first looks at the framework of reconciliation and describes the complexity of uncertainty and changes in the structure of labour markets. The second part is entitled the space for reconciliation and covers mobility, social protection, the quality of transitions and the quality of family life. The final part covers the methodology of reconciliation, including the model proposed by the Council of Europe.

Of Dim Futures and Hope: Global Rise in Child Labour during the Pandemic

The Indian Centre for Child and Human Rights started off with the intent to induce sensitivity in its target audience regarding issues relating to the development of children, the rights of women and encouragement to create an environment for their combined growth since both women and children are coupled with each other through some common needs. According to a notification published by UNICEF in June 10, 2021, "The number of children in child labour has risen to 160 million worldwide – an increase of 8.4 million children in the last four years – with millions more at risk due to the impacts of COVID-19, according to a new report by the International Labour Organization (ILO) and UNICEF...

Postcommunist Welfare States

In the early 1990s, the countries of the former Soviet Bloc faced an urgent need to reform the systems by which they delivered broad, basic social welfare to their citizens. Inherited systems were inefficient and financially unsustainable. Linda J. Cook here explores the politics and policy of social welfare from 1990 to 2004 in the Russian Federation, Poland, Hungary, Belarus, and Kazakhstan. Most of these countries, she shows, tried to institute reforms based on a liberal paradigm of reduced entitlements and subsidies, means-testing, and privatization. But these proposals provoked opposition from pro-welfare interests, and the politics of negotiating change varied substantially from one po...
