Increasing Employment of Older Workers
A Region Recovers
2012’s Superstorm Sandy had a devastating impact on the New York City metropolitan region, including the suburban Long Island coast and the New Jersey shore. Given the size, density, complexity, and diversity of the region, many approaches have been used to address poststorm recovery. Planning has been central to these efforts. Using in-depth interviews with recovery stakeholders, this analysis of the planning responses to Sandy illustrates what …
Community Businesses as Social Units in Post-Disaster Recovery
With global climate change and rapid development in environmentally vulnerable areas, communities are increasingly looking for ways to manage, adapt to, and mitigate adverse impacts from disaster events. To help communities achieve this goal, planners must first understand how various stakeholders behave in post-disaster situations. In this paper, we use household and business surveys conducted in New York City after the 2012 Hurricane Sandy to e…

Der “Wohlfahrtsmarkt“ in der britischen Arbeitsmarktpolitik
Der langjährige Anstieg der Langzeitarbeitslosigkeit hat den britischen und den deutschen Wohlfahrtsstaat vor Herausforderungen gestellt: In beiden Ländern wurden, wenn auch zeitversetzt, Strategien der “Aktivierung“ und Effizienzsteigerung der arbeitsmarktpolitischen Programme eingeführt. In diesem Prozess wurde die Arbeitsverwaltung einem tiefgreifenden Wandel unterzogen, in den auch die Beziehungen zu den “Dritten“ – for-profit wie non-for-pro…
Outsourcing Employment Programmes
In many countries employment services and labour market programmes, whether delivered by public agencies or contracted providers, are found to be less effective in meeting the needs of more disadvantaged job seekers compared to other unemployed people. This article reviews evidence on how countries that outsource employment programmes design outcome-based payments, contracts and differential prices to ensure more equitable outcomes. It considers …
Social democracy, education and the crisis
This stencilled paper is a revised version of an article which first appeared in Working Papers in Cultural Studies No. 10, On Ideology, 1977. Written in late 1976 the article was centrally concerned with explaining the genesis and constituents of what was then publicly conceived of, and defined, as a ‘crisis’ in education. We attempted to explain the political and ideological nature of that ‘crisis’, against explanations which, on the one hand s…
Welfare to work
New Labour is introducing an ‘employment first’ welfare state. This article assesses the impact and limitations of the first wave of measures that, since 1997, have involved the introduction of New Deal employment programmes, tax and benefit reforms to ‘make work pay’ and mandatory work focused interviews for working-age claimants. The reform process now has accelerated and key elements of a New Labour third-term strategy are already clear. They …
The “Employment‐first” Welfare State
New Labour is constructing an “employment‐first” welfare state. It plans through Jobcentre Plus to transform the passive culture of the benefit system by creating more explicit links between individual behaviour and engagement with labour market programmes. The New Deal for Young People (NDYP) has been at the forefront of these changes. This paper reports on the findings from four case studies that explored how the NDYP has changed young people's…
Welfare to Work
Welfare systems in the European Union and in other OECD countries are under pressure. In response, governments have embarked on major reforms aimed at creating work-based welfare systems. The new approaches involve radical changes in traditional welfare and employment agency bureaucracies. In most countries this has been coupled with decentralization and the increased use of local partnerships and organizations in designing and implementing new '…
Job Guarantees for the Unemployed
High levels of long-term unemployment have undermined some of the assumptions of the post-war welfare state. In response most OECD governments are now replacing what have been characterised as passive income support payments with active benefit systems. Many have introduced new time limits to unconditional benefit entitlement in the form of job and training guarantees for those without work. This article describes how the 1993-6 Australian Labor …

Silver Foils
Harold Silver's extended review of Unpopular Education (and, oddly enough, of an old working paper) calls for sustained re-examination and reappraisal of educational policy and experience and for debate how to do [1]. Obviously his interests are similar to our own: Unpopular Education too locates itself in the contemporary crisis in education, re-examines the relation between 'policy' and (popular) experience, and debates 'how to do it'. After th…
The role of contracts and the private sector in delivering Britain's 'employment first' welfare state
In Britain the rise of ‘contractualism’ has led to radical changes in the relationship between the unemployed person and the state and in the organisation of the public Employment Service (ES). In 1986 individual ‘action plans’ were introduced for the long term unemployed and since 1996 all unemployed people have been required to enter a formal Jobseekers Agreement specifying the steps they will take to obtain the types of employment they qualify…
