In today's shrinking world of globalised economic activity and planet-level
ecological anxiety, social policy can no longer expect or afford to remain
solely within the province of the nation state or perhaps even within the
province of regional collections of states. To the extent that the impact
of global economics knows no boundaries, then neither should that of its
counterpart, 'global' social policy. However, in practice, social policies
remain very much rooted in national and local cultures, not to mention
perceived national and local interests. Therefore it remains difficult to
see how far, on whose terms, at what cost and to what conceivable effect,
forms of transnational social policy - or even of transnational social
policy standard-setting - are likely to come into their own. The present
collection explores this problem from an impressive range of practical and
theoretical perspectives. As such it constitutes a vital addition to the
international - hitherto mainly 'cross-national' - literature on the
subject. Thus it should/will be essential reading for teachers, students,
researchers and policy makers in search of timely supra-national
perspectives; just as it should no less excite the interested general
reader
