| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research aims at analysing welfare reforms in European countries in the 2000s from the point of view of the EU’s effects and partisanship in Member States. In other words, I explored ‘why the EU was important in right-wing governments’ reforms in some instances’, and focused on the strength of the EU’s effects on Member States to answer this question. Moreover, I offered my hypothesis - in welfare policy fields both ‘more and less affected by the EU’, right-wing governments in Member States implemented ‘flexible’ reforms based on the ‘coordination’ policymaking style - , and by focusing on the employment, unemployment benefit, and pension reforms of the second Berlusconi centre-right government in Italy, concluded that this hypothesis was relevant.
