Накратко на български
Връзката между гъвкавостта на трудовия пазар и социалната сигурност се анализира чрез сравнение на различни държавни политики. Това помага да се разбере как различните制度ми за трудова заетост влияят върху сигурността на работниците в Европа.

Final Activity Report Summary - TRANSPAT (Labour Market Transition Patterns under Alternative Policy Regimes: Towards a Multinational Comparative Research Agenda)
The principal objective of this project was to contribute towards the formation of a new international research consortium capable of carrying out a genuinely comparative research project on the interaction between labour market policy and welfare state reforms as well as on labour market flexibility and (in)security (the so-called 'flexicurity') in diverse institutional settings and under varying market conditions. The main task of the Marie Curie fellow, Prof. Axel van den Berg of McGill University in Montreal, Canada, was to contribute his expertise and experience in setting up and administering international comparative research on labour market policy and flexibility versus security nexus to assist the members of the thematic network on 'Managing social risks through transitional labour markets' (TLM.NET), which was funded by the European Community's Fifth Framework Programme (FP5), in formulating new integrated research around which such a new consortium could be formed. As a means towards this end, Prof. van den Berg played an active role in the organisational and editorial activities of TLM.NET during the final year of its existence and co-authored the network's official policy report, 'Managing social risks through transitional labour markets: Towards an enriched European employment strategy', together with Prof. Erik de Gier, who then served as a director of the Institute for Social Sciences (SISWO), Social Policy Research, which was the institute hosting Prof. van den Berg. The efforts of Prof. van den Berg and his colleagues resulted in the successful formation of a new international consortium consisting of a multidisciplinary group of leading researchers from 20 institutions in 13 countries. This group produced a carefully designed, thoroughly integrated multidisciplinary and multi-level four-year research plan, the 'Transitions in welfare and employment regimes: Towards the modernisation of the European social model' (TRANSWELL) for which funding was sought by the time of the project completion. Once completed, the project results would provide the most authoritative source of top-quality scientific information available to support the efforts of policy makers to modernise and extend the European employment strategy and the European social model. This research would have profound implications for policy-making with respect to such social problems as employment and unemployment, poverty, earnings inequality, economic competitiveness, pension system sustainability, and so on.

Цел на проекта
The purpose of this Marie Curie Incoming International Fellowships application is to allow Professor Axel van den Berg, a distinguished Canadian researcher of labour market policies and flexibility, to spend a year at the host institution, SISWO in Amsterdam, to work closely with the coordinators and participants of the Thematic Network on 'Managing Social Risks through Transitional Labour Markets' (TLM.NET) funded by the European Commission's 5th Framework Programme.The fundamental question driving the current research of both the Network partners and Professor van den Berg's Canadian research team is essentially the same: what viable policy alternatives are there that succeed in enhancing labour market flexibility without necessarily relying on rising income inequality, low-quality employment and wholesale labour market de-regulation?The question is often couched in terms of a debate over the relative merits of the 'European Social Model' vs. the 'Anglo-Saxon Market Model'. Professor van den Berg intends to contribute the results of his Canadian research to those of the other Network participants as well as begin the job of forging a joint, genuinely comparative multinational research agenda addressing these basic issues in collaboration with Network members.In order to do so, Professor van den Berg will play an active role in helping the Network coordinators at SISWO and the WZB in Berlin with their work of organizing and administering the Network, providing intellectual leadership, evaluation and editorial preparation of the Network members¿ research findings, and formulation of policy recommendations on the basis of those findings.He will bring much-valued expertise and research experience from across the Atlantic to the research community of the European Union and his work as Marie Curie Fellow will lay the groundwork for future large-scale multinational collaborative projects in an area of scientific research and policy making in which it is badly needed.
