内容説明

This book now available in paperback, looks at the public policy profiles of eight advanced capitalist states and asks what makes them distinctive. While focusing primarily on individual nations, the volume also examines national policies comparatively by examing the extent to which each nation fits into patterns established in cross-national literature. The authors seek to integrate a detailed historical examination of individual case studies with the structural analysis that emerges from a comparative approach. In so doing they have produced an authoritative statement on the developments and dilemmas of central areas of public life in the modern state.
