Welfare Chauvinism among Voters and Political Parties
The access of EU migrants to social assistance is highly politicised in Switzerland. However, we know little about parties' and voters' positions on this issue across the ideological spectrum. Using quantitative methods, this article examines whether there is congruence between voters' preferences on EU migrants' access to social assistance and those of political parties. It also examines whether citizens' voting choices are influenced by the deg…
The domestic politics of the Swiss‐EU negotiations on the Institutional Framework Agreement (and beyond)
This article examines the domestic political dynamics surrounding the negotiations between Switzerland and the European Union (EU) on the Institutional Framework Agreement. It identifies the main domestic difficulties that prevented an agreement from being reached. The empirical reconstruction of the negotiations suggests that domestic consensus became very difficult because the issues under negotiation were two‐dimensional, activating both the a…
The persistence of legal uncertainty on EU citizens’ access to social benefits in Germany
Legal uncertainty may hinder the effective implementation of public policies. Still, the political and legal dynamics that underpin its persistence are underexplored. This article proposes that legal uncertainty is more likely to persist in multi-level political and legal systems where actors with authority on the same issue hold different interpretations of rules. Also, it suggests that, under these conditions, actors can use legal uncertainty a…
Power and ideas
One of the consequences of the Eurozone crisis was the collapse of social concertation. Some authors have explained that the need for fiscal retrenchment deprived governments of resources to offer concessions to trade unions (Regan, 2013). Although these explanations partly explain why social partnership ended, we do not yet know how political actors achieved this institutional change, neither which ideas they used to legitimate it. This article …
Pushing the boundaries’
In the context of the 2004 Enlargement, several EU governments reformed their social legislation to restrict the access to benefits of job-seeking or inactive EU citizens. Many of these restrictions were in tension with the case-law of the European Court of Justice, but when it came to judge their compatibility with EU law, the ECJ was more lenient than many anticipated. This article analyses this shift in ECJ case-law by looking at the dialogue …
When the Lenders Leave Town
This article aims to identify the resilience of measures adopted during bailout programmes, and the conditions under which decisions-makers reverse them. Focusing on Spain and Portugal (2014–2019), we calculated that almost half (46 per cent) of the most important measures adopted during the programmes were reversed in the five years following the bailouts. We also show that left-wing parties reversed more than right wing and that the bulk of str…
Crisis, cambio en la UE y estrategias sindicales
During the eurozone crisis, the PSOE’s and PP’s governments implemented a series of reforms\nof the Welfare State and the labour market in exchange for financial help from the EU; what\nis known as conditionality. The trade unions, CC. OO. and UGT, responded to these reforms\nas the representatives of the sectors most affected by them. There are two narratives to explain\ntrade unions’ strategies during the crisis. On the one hand, it is argued t…
