Zusammenfassung: This book seeks to gain a better understanding of the paradoxical relationship between the alleged need of European labour markets to become more flexible and the way in which national policies pursue this aim without jeopardising existing high standards of income and employment security. Special interest is devoted to the way in which countries opt for different policy routes to cope with the aim of balancing flexibility and security goals in their respective labour market and social protection policies. The contributions in this book all try to unveil the particular changes or transitions occurring in the various labour markets, to learn about their medium and longer term effects and the role of institutions and policies to cushion the adverse consequences of these changes. By studying some "best practices" in Denmark, Canada and Australia they also draw some important lessons about the reasons why national policies might either fail or better cope with the challenges Europe face todayZusammenfassung: pt. 1. Labour market mobility and in-work transitions -- pt. 2. 'Scarring' effects of unemployment and non-standard employment -- pt. 3. 'Best policy practices' in Australia, Canada and DenmarkPPN: PPN: 102343251XPackage identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-1-EWE
