Concerns have also been expressed about 'social dumping' and a 'race to the bottom'. This book addresses the following issues: - What does theory tell us about such claims? - Is there empirical evidence pointing to any form of social dumping? - Are welfare states converging? - What kind of international cooperation, if any, is necessary to safeguard developed welfare states while at the same time enhancing social protection in the less developed ones? - What can be learned from existing models of cooperation within federal states, within the European Union, and between other international organisations?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9788172341701\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 12.0 x 9.0 x 0.8 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Prakash Pubns \u0026 Exports","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49089332740400,"sku":"Prakash_9788172341701","price":1125.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/prakash-pubns-exports-book-default-title-sikkim-the-hidden-fruitful-valley-hb-38802937413936.jpg?v=1753011798","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/sikkim-the-hidden-fruitful-valley-hb","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
