New Geographically-Differentiated Configurations of Social Risks: Labour Market Policy Developments in Sweden and Finland; Simone Scarpa -- 11. Liberal Responses to New Social Risks : Danish Experiences from Three Decades of Liberalistic Social Policy Reforms; Iver Hornemann M̜ller -- 12. Conclusion: The Take on New Social Risks in the Nordic Welfare States; Rickard Ulmestig and Ivan Hasolf.

The Nordic welfare states have found themselves in the firing line of post-industrial developments, resulting in fundamental changes in societal institutions at all levels. In particular, changes in the labour market and family, reinforced by processes of migration and international market integration, have presented the welfare states with new social needs to attend to. This book critically explores responses to changing social risks across areas such as structural unemployment, entrepreneurship, immigration, single parenthood, education and health. It explores critical changes in the structure of the Nordic welfare states and the social policy strategies for alleviating social risks. While the Nordic countries are shining in most international comparisons, such changes and their wider implications have often been overlooked in the literature. The book raises the question whether certain risks are even being evoked actively through new social policies instating incentive structures concomitant with policy goals in order to encourage certain behaviour among citizens.
