Dear colleagues,
Peter Taylor-Gooby and myself are members of a newly constituted European
Union COST Action project, directed from Aalborg University in Denmark,
which focuses on the link between unemployment, citizenship and
marginalisation across 11 European countries, including the UK. This is a
five year initiative and I would be happy to keep interested people informed
about our activities. However, one of our first 'tasks' is to identify and
collect information about relevant research activities in the respective
countries. I'd be grateful therefore for any information about new,
ongoing, or recently completed research activities in the UK, which might
include studies into the consequences of unemployment, the impact of benefit
and labour market policies, the role of institutional arrangements etc.
Many thanks.
