Abstract
The Asia-Europe Meeting (ASEM) is the
informal dialogue, and cooperative process linking the 15
European Union member states with 10 Asian nations, and who
financed the project that brought together the experience of
social policy experts, in an effort to highlight imperative
thinking on new social policies, following the East Asia
Crises of 1997-98. This book is the outcome of such project,
which focused on ideas and knowledge exchange, working to
develop a series of papers, and seminars drawing together
different disciplines, and topics across both East Asia and
Europe. A wide range of issues is addressed, including
social security reform, the links between macroeconomic and
social policy, labor market policies, gender relations, and
cross-border migration. While the information is drawn from
European experience, it is applicable to East Asia and other
regions, and will be of interest to Asian studies, scholars,
and students, interested in social policy formation.
