Social Foundations of Postindustrial Economies

By Gøsta Esping-Andersen

Book Overview

Gosta Esping-Andersen, Europe's leading analyst of the welfare state, presents a provocative examination of postindustrial economies at the end of the twentieth century. This book takes a second look at the driving forces of economic transformation in a more sociological and institutional way. As a result, what stands out is postindustrial diversity, not convergence.
