Introduction / Romke van der Veen -- Changing social risks, changing risk protection? / Romke van der Veen -- Sickness and disability reform in the Netherlands -- Collective childcare protection : the new workfare -- Employability : lack of clarity, lack of protection / Hans Pruijt and Pascal Derogee -- Transforming the Dutch welfare state. "This comprehensive study provides a thorough account of important policy developments in the Netherlands that are significant beyond the borders of the Dutch welfare state. It demonstrates the dramatic changes that have taken place in the protection of old and new social risks, exploring the mechanisms behind these changes in the context of corporatist welfare state institutions.
