Summary

The EU Economic and Social Model in the Global Crisis explores the sustainability of the European Union’s economic and social framework amid and after the global financial turmoil. It examines four critical areas: the uneven legal and policy structure of the euro, tensions between economic policies and social justice goals, civil society’s role including industry dynamics, and the EU’s ambitions for a viable global socio-economic model. Blending legal studies, political economy, sociology, and macroeconomics, this work offers dual perspectives on these issues and sets the stage for future scholarly inquiry.

This book is ideal for academics, students, policymakers, and anyone interested in the European Union’s economic policies, social justice issues, and interdisciplinary approaches to contemporary EU challenges.

Description

This book addresses the viability of the EU economic and social model within and after the global economic crisis. It identifies four key issues which warrant further discussion:

(1) the asymmetry of the legal and policy framework of the euro and potential recalibration;

(2) substantive tensions between the EU 'economic constitution' and its normative aim of social justice and impacts on national policy;

(3) the role of civil society, including the two sides of industry in overcoming these tensions; and

(4) the EU’s global aspirations towards the creation of a viable socio-economic model.

Its chapters offer two perspectives on each of the four main issues. In drawing these debates together, the book provides a broad understanding as well as starting points for future research. Bringing together different disciplinary approaches, ranging from legal studies to political economy, sociology and macroeconomics, it is a valuable contribution to the debate on the European social model and introduces new insights by focusing on legal and political tensions, the impact of the financial crisis and other economic contexts as well as global dimensions.
