Compte rendu de «Kees van Kersbergen and Barbara Vis (2013), Comparative Welfare State Politics: Development, Opportunities and Reform. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. 260 p.»

Van Kersbergen and Vis provide a documented outlook and some new insights into the vastliterature surrounding the ‘politics of welfare state reforms’. As they suggest: ‘The book isexplicitly conceived and designed as a cross between a text- or reference book, that informs thereader comprehensively about the state of the art in the field of the welfare state studies andan academic research monograph that aims to contribute theoretically and empirically to theon-going debate on the politics of welfare state reform’ (p.4)
