520 |a This book provides a comparative review of active labour market policies (ALMPS) in the US, the UK, France and Denmark, and at the EU level. Since the 1990s ALMPs have been adopted within the European Union and the United States as a means of combating social exclusion and poverty. Such policies seek to help the unemployed return to work and make benefit receipt conditional upon the recipient making demonstrable attempts to gain employment. Drawing on in-depth interviews with key policy-makers, the book provides a fresh and original insight into the politics of welfare reform. Anne Daguerre argues that ALMPs indicate a shift towards conditional welfare and a renewal of the distinction between the deserving and undeserving poor. The author concludes that ALMPs place economic competitiveness above human well-being, thus clashing with the vision encapsulated by the European Social Model.
