German Society for International Cooperation SEGURIDAD SOCIAL ASPECTOS ECONOMICOS ECONOMIA DEL BIENESTAR SOCIAL SECURITY ECONOMIC ASPECTS WELFARE ECONOMICS Includes bibliography Discourse always matters in the politics of building social pacts on social protection —for failure as much as for success. And by discourse, we mean not just the ideas behind the social pacts but the policy debates and political discussions surrounding the negotiation of those pacts. Over the past three decades, with globalization a major driving force in the international economy, new social pacts have been negotiated and older ones renegotiated. Many of these negotiations have been underpinned by neoliberal ideas focused on increasing flexibility in labor markets through greater management ability to hire and fire at will, on improving worker productivity or reducing unemployment through labor market activation policies, and on cutting the costs of the welfare state through reducing benefits and introducing competition in services. But they have also been moderated by social-democratic and social liberal ideas emphasizing respect for workers' rights and job protections, the improvement of working hours, working conditions, and worker training, and the maintenance or enhancement of workers' benefits and social services over the lifecycle. 2014-01-02T16:21:57Z 2014-01-02T16:21:57Z 2013-06 Texto Documento Completo http://hdl.handle.net/11362/6194 LC/L.3649 en Serie Políticas Sociales 178 application/pdf EUROPA BRASIL SUDAFRICA EUROPE BRAZIL SOUTH AFRICA ECLAC |
