This book examines the European Left's attempt to think and give shape to an alternative type of European integration-a 'social Europe'-during the long 1970s. Based on fresh archival research, it shows that the western European Left-in particular, social democratic parties, trade unions, and to a lesser extent 'Eurocommunist' parties-formulated a broad project to turn 'capitalist Europe' into a 'workers' Europe'. This alternative model of European unity favoured coordinated measures for wealth redistribution, market regulation, a democratization of the economy and of European institutions, upward harmonization of social and fiscal systems, more inclusive welfare regimes, guaranteed employment, economic and social planning with greater consideration for the environment, increased public spending to meet collective needs, greater control of capital flows and multinational corporations, a reduction in working time, and a fairer international economic order favouring the global South. During the pivotal years following 1968, deeply marked by labour militancy, new social movements, economic crisis, and the unmaking of the 'postwar compromise', a window of opportunity opened in which European integration could have taken different roads. The defeat of 'social Europe' was a result of a decade-long social conflict which ended with the affirmation of a neoliberal Europe. Investigating this forgotten power struggle and the reasons of its defeat can be useful not just to scholars and students eager to understand the historical evolution of European integration, the European Left, and European capitalism, but also to anyone interested in building alternative European and global futures.

Cherchant à adapter leurs services à l’actualité sociale et aux besoins réels de leur public, de plus en plus de bibliothèques se préoccupent d’offrir des services orientés vers l’insertion professionnelle et la recherche d’emploi. Qu’elle soit universitaire ou publique, la bibliothèque constitue une ressource essentielle de la formation tout au long de la vie, élément primordial à l’adaptation permanente au monde du travail. Cet ouvrage aborde cette nouvelle problématique pour les établissements sous trois angles différents, selon les besoins des publics : travailler, se former, entreprendre. Les conditions d’accueil des publics concernés, l’adaptation de l’offre suivant la dimension de la bibliothèque, la constitution des collections spécialisées dans ce domaine, la qualité des propositions en matière d’autoformation, les atouts des différents partenariats dans le domaine de la recherche d’emploi, tels sont les éléments traités ici pour favoriser le succès de la mise en place et du développement d’une offre propre à élargir avec efficacité les champs d’intervention des bibliothèques aujourd’hui. Coordonné par Georges Perrin, inspecteur général honoraire des bibliothèques, ce volume collectif réunit des professionnels spécialisés dans le domaine éducatif, social et culturel.
