The limits of green concertation
Greening production models is likely to generate costs and, in turn, resistance from organised interests. Concertation institutions enable governments to diffuse this opposition by involving and compensating losers through bargains, incrementally leading to more stringent environmental policies. However, we argue that governments’ capacity to pass on such reforms via concertation partly depends on the degree of horizontal business fragmentation, …
Learning under pressure
Mediterranean welfare states have generally been treated as a homogeneous group; a ‘family of sinners’ that requires structural reforms to tackle persistent problems. While this applied until the Great Recession, new evidence suggests significant departures from this trajectory. Why did Mediterranean countries move from dualization and retrenchment to more generous measures in 2020, especially in outsiders’ protection? Taking the pandemic as a sy…
The Comparative Political Economy of the Green Transition
The green transition is fundamentally transforming contemporary economies and societies. This article investigates how European models of capitalism perform and specialize across the green value chain—conceptualized as innovation, manufacturing, services, and deployment—and how national skill formation systems underpin these specializations. Integrating insights from comparative capitalism literatures with descriptive statistics and principal com…
Looking beyond the workplace
There is ample literature to suggest that labour's interests are at odds with the extension of income protection to ‘outsiders’. Until recently, Italian unions were reluctant, if not outright obstructive, towards the introduction of a minimum income scheme (MIS). After the 2008 financial crisis and its dramatic social and economic consequences, however, the three major labour confederations supported the introduction of a national MIS, openly emb…
Bread or roses? Trade unions, female employment and the expansion of work-family policies
In the Fordist era, trade unions promoted welfare state expansion and coverage against risks for the broader workforce. With the shift to the post-industrial economy, however, new economic groups have been left without representation. This is particularly evident for women: despite a rapid increase in female employment since the 1980s, unions' membership base remains anchored in the male, old and industrial working class. Without the crucial pres…
The caring classes
In the past, the working class was perceived as a cohesive social and political subject, although this was never fully the case, and it is certainly less the case today. Class, in fact, is not just defined by economic attributes, but also by social, cultural and ethical ones. Care, understood either as work or values, is fundamental for better understanding class. The implications of the relationship between care values and class are yet not full…
Varieties of Just Transition? Eco-Social Policy Approaches at the International Level
‘Just transition’ is a concept originally developed by the labour movement to reconcile workers’ rights with the necessity to combat climate change. More recently, supra- and international organisations have also adopted this idea. However, it remains unclear to what extent these actors follow the eco-social ambitions of organised labour. In this article, we develop a conceptual framework to capture diverse just transition approaches by distingui…
