Description: Princeton, N.J. : Princeton University Press, c1985. Hardcover. Dustjacket. xx,366,[1] pp. Mailorder only - Alleen verzending mogelijk. Book condition : very good. - This comparative analysis of Scandinavian social democracies argues that the fate of socialist parties is decided, to a significant degree, by their own policies and reforms_not solely by the changes in social structure emphasized in previous studies. Combining quantitative analysis and historical case studies to demonstrate the electoral effects of party policy, Gosta Esping-Andersen formulates a theory that is applicable not only to Scandinavia but to Western Europe as a whole. In addition, he explains why the support basis of social democracy has deteriorated so much more in Denmark than in Sweden and Norway ISBN 9780691094083.
