{"product_id":"book-9788973278503","title":"The Politics of Job Creation in Economic Crisis","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book aims to compare and analyze the changes and recent trends of ALMPs in OECD countries and explain the politics of job creation in shaping those changes. The main puzzle explains the different pathways of job creation before and after the 2008 economic crisis. It will quantitatively explore cross-national variations in total expenditures and changes in the distribution of spending on the different types of ALMPs over time. It also examines several potential causal factors to explain the factors that resulted in differences in the expenditures on ALMPs, including partisan control, bargaining system, union density, and neoliberal influence. It argues that these OECD countries may be more likely to enter the low-road policies of short-term job creation instead of the high-road, such as training and human development policies. The case study of Sweden, Germany, and Korea analyzes how and why domestic partisan politics shaped the type of ALMPs adopted. It concludes that variations on the expenditures of ALMPs in these OECD countries were more specific and conditional per the politics of job creation in each country.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48981829714172,"sku":"9788973278503","price":39.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/4681\/9068\/files\/9788973278503.jpg?v=1776352097","url":"https:\/\/bookstore12.com\/products\/book-9788973278503","provider":"Bookstore 12","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
