A comparison of the social security systems developed since WWII in 10 European nations: Austria, Belgium, GB, France, West Germany, the Netherlands, Denmark, Italy, Norway, & Sweden. Differences in the systems that reflect ideology & social forces have often been more controversial than the amount of social expenditure. It is argued that the labor movement had a particular vision of social security, which was legislated where labor had the political majority & defeated elsewhere. Postwar developments have been shaped primarily by this factor, which has become more evident in the current crisis than in the period of general expansion in the 1960s to 1970s. 1 Table, 1 Schema.

A review of the literature on the comparative analysis of the unemployment problem in Organization for Economic Cooperation & Development countries, with attention to whether these findings can be fruitful for a more policy-centered discussion of mass unemployment in the Netherlands. Three theoretical & empirical contributions explaining the divergent reactions to the unemployment problem are considered: the power-structure approach of Manfred G. Schmidt, which leans heavily on a class-politics thesis & the neocorporatist debate; the historical-materialistic viewpoint, which focuses on the institutional past of countries; & the action-oriented & institutionalist-cultural theory. It is suggested that a political-institutional analysis should assess: the structures of policy making, the logic of collective action of the major interest organizations, & the logic of accommodation between the state & the major interest organization. 1 Table, 50 References.

It is hypothesized that a subordinate position in the international goods & capital markets retards economic development. A model of relationships among trade dependency, stock of foreign capital, flow of foreign capital, state strength, level of economic dependency, & economic growth is formulated, & estimated for a sample of 94 nations. Multiple regression analysis identifies: a strong curvilinear relationship between level of economic development & economic growth; a positive effect of flow of foreign capital on economic growth; a negative effect of stock of foreign capital on economic growth; weak interaction effects of intensity of trade & structure of trade on economic growth; & no effect of state strength on economic growth. 2 Tables, 3 Appendixes, 60 References.
