Capitalism, Democracy, and Welfare - Cambridge Studies in Comparative Politics
Iversen, Torben (Harvard University, Massachusetts)
This book, first published in 2005, is based on the key idea that social protection, both inside and outside the state, can be understood as protection of specific investments in human capital. It offers a systematic explanation of popular preferences for redistributive spending, the economic role of political parties and electoral systems, and labor market stratification.
