Book Description:
|
Never has the Left held power in so many advanced economies, yet the difference this makes to economic policy proves hard to identify. This book is the first to examine in detail the successes and failures of governments across Europe and in Australia to chart distinctive courses in the face of the neoliberal backlash against state intervention, the welfare state, and guaranteed full employment.
