This book therefore asks whether and how Europe matters in the fight against poverty and social exclusion by assessing the emergence and possible institutionalization of a European multi-level, multi-stakeholder and integrated policy arena in the new institutional framework. Supranational developments, multilevel interactions, as well as effects at the national level are explored in six European countries - Belgium, Germany, Italy, Poland, UK and Sweden. The book also aims to capture the key factors affecting the implementation of the Europe 2020 anti-poverty strategy.This book will be of key interest to students, scholars and practitioners in social policy, political science and European governance, and more broadly to European Union politics, European integrations studies, sociology and economics."--Provided by publisher Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Description based on print version record and CIP data provided by publisher Subject Poverty -- Government policy -- European Union countries Marginality, Social -- European Union countries POLITICAL SCIENCE -- Public Policy -- Social Security.
