While the severity of the economic crisis encouraged strong social spending responses to protect millions of individuals, governments have faced growing pressure to reduce budgets and make deep cuts to the welfare state. Whereas conservative parties have embraced fiscal discipline and welfare state cuts, left-wing parties have turned away from austerity in favor of higher social spending. These political differences represent a return of traditional left-right beliefs over social spending and economic governance. 330 3 $aThis book is one of the first to systematically compare welfare state politics before and after the Great Recession arguing that a new and lasting post-crisis dynamic has emerged where political parties once again matter for social spending. At the heart of this repoliticization are intense ideological debates over market regulation, social inequality, redistribution, and the role of the state. The book analyzes social spending dynamics for 28 countries before and after the crisis. It also includes in-depth country case studies representing five distinct welfare state types: Germany, the United Kingdom, Sweden, Spain, and the Czech Republic. 606 $aGlobal Financial Crisis, 2008-2009$xPolitical aspects$zEurope 606 $aWelfare state$zEuropean Union countries$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aRecessions$zEurope$xHistory$y21st century 615 0$aGlobal Financial Crisis, 2008-2009$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aWelfare state$xHistory 615 0$aRecessions$xHistory 676 $a332.1094 686 $aPOL023000$2bisacsh 700 $aMcManus$b Ian P$g(Ian Patrick)$01261861 801 0$bEYM 801 1$bEYM 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910584585003321 996 $aThe repoliticization of the welfare state$92944230 997 $aUNINA
