Reflections on the European Employment Strategy: How relevant to the UK?

  • Published 1st Nov 2004

This collection of essays offers a critical examination of various aspects of the European Employment Strategy (EES). It arises out of a seminar organised by the New Policy Institute as part of the project titled ‘More and Better Jobs’ – a project which aims to raise awareness of the EES in the UK and to encourage relevant NGOs, practitioners, academics, and politicians to begin the vital process of engaging with it. The seminar addressed two main questions: what does the EES offer the UK and how does the EES get implemented in Member states.
