Weitreichende Reformen der Arbeitsmarkt- und Rentenpolitik wurden in Deutschland bereits ab Mitte der 1990er Jahre umgesetzt, in Frankreich hingegen erst ab Ende der 2000er Jahre. Dabei wird deutlich, dass die französischen Arbeitsmarkt- und Rentenreformen der letzten Jahre wichtige Parallelen zu Deutschland aufweisen. Florian Steinmüller zeigt auf, dass die unterschiedliche Entwicklung beider Wohlfahrtsstaaten und die Annäherung Frankreichs an das deutsche Reformmodell auf die landesspezifischen Beziehungsmuster zwischen Exekutive, Parteien, Gewerkschaften und Arbeitgeberverbänden und auf deren Veränderungsdynamik zurückzuführen sind. Der Inhalt Vorstellung der Akteure, des Analyserahmens und des Analysemodells Grundlagen der Arbeitsmarkt- und Rentenpolitik in Deutschland und Frankreich Entwicklung der Arbeitsmarkt- und Rentenpolitik im deutsch-französischen Vergleich Wandel des Wohlfahrtsstaates und Veränderung der Akteurskonstellationen im deutsch-französischen Vergleich Die Zielgruppen Dozenten und Forschende der vergleichenden Wohlfahrtsstaatsforschung, Frankreichforschung, Verbändeforschung, Policy-Analyse Expertinnen und Experten der Arbeitslosen- und Rentenversicherungen Der Autor Florian Steinmüller ist wissenschaftlicher Referent beim Deutschen Verein für öffentliche und private Fürsorge e.V. .

This book explains how to bring about institutional change and foster new institutional structures (institution building) by resolving power inequities in a rural ecosystem in India, and advocates the identification of an appropriate institutional champion to make this happen. The book develops a power-asymmetry-based framework and argues that a champion with the right attributes and the 'ability’ to 'convene' people over a social issue can only succeed if he/she can resolve or reduce the deep-rooted societal power asymmetries within that community. It also presents four case studies that indicate how such social change is typically spread over a long period of time.

Over the last three decades, Europe's generous social benefits have encouraged a massive surge of 'welfare migration,' especially of low skilled laborers. At the same time, the US has attracted many highly skilled migrants, which in turn promotes internal innovation. Restrictions on the international mobility of labor are arguably the largest policy obstructions for the international economy today. A variety of studies suggest that even a small reduction in barriers to migration will result in the growth of significant global welfare benefits. Migration States and Welfare States focuses on a central tension faced by policy makers in countries that receive migrants from lower wage countries. Such countries are typically highly productive and rich in capital. These attributes, coupled with the host country's welfare system, attract low-skilled migrants, who find a generous welfare state particularly attractive, while deterring skilled migrants, who recognize that welfare states likely have higher redistributive taxes.
