“…If we concentrate on demanding ALMPs, their setup seems to imply that unemployment is a consequence of individuals' behavioural shortcomings rather than the result of structural problems (Daguerre, 2007). This assessment has a series of consequences.…”

“…In the literature, three ALMP models have been identified: the work-first, the human capital and the occupational approaches (King, 1995;Løedmel and Trickey, 2001;Barbier and Ludwig-Mayerhofer, 2004;Daguerre, 2007). These strategies vary conspicuously with respect to the centrality of demanding ALMPs and the negative behavioural evaluations associated with the unemployed.…”

“…At the same time, social and employment policy in the EU have shifted focus from full employment and social protection towards promotion, activation and social investment (Daguerre 2007, Rogowski, Salais and Whiteside 2012, Larsson, Letell and Thörn 2012. This increased focus on workfare and activation connotes a particular way of governing human beings, replete with assumptions of individual agency, responsibility, and capacity to solve unemployment by the help of personal coaches and individualized incentives to work (Garsten, Hollertz and Jacobsson 2013).…”

“…The neoliberal political ideas of free markets, free trade and emphasis on individual entrepreneurial capabilities and skills as an ideal for organizing society and the labour market slowly gained ground (Harvey 2005;Peck 2010). Twenty years later this ideal had become naturalized as a policy formula for solving problems with unemployment and social exclusion in many countries formerly guided by other ideals, such as an active labour market policy with the goal of protection and full employment rather than workfarism and activation (Daguerre 2007;Larsson, Letell and Thörn 2012;Rogowski, Salais and Whiteside 2012).…”

“…Both are often seen as among the vanguard of ‘active’ welfare states (they have seen the rapid expansion of activation since the mid‐1990s); and they have reported significant declines in unemployment during the same period. Both countries have been held up as examples of best practice in responding to unemployment –‘Stories of the Danish and Dutch employment miracles serve to disseminate supply‐side policy paradigms throughout Western Europe’ (Daguerre 2007: 11). Yet while the two countries' welfare states share some similar corporatist features, there are considerable differences in their broader welfare and labour market structures; and while both have pursued localization and contracting‐out in reforming the governance of activation, the approaches that they have adopted have varied considerably (particularly in relation to the privatization of PES functions).…”
