Based on the key idea that social protection in a modern economy, both inside and outside the state, can be understood as protection of specific investments in human capital, the book offers a systematic explanation of popular preferences for redistributives spending, the economic role of political parties and electoral systems, and labor market stratification (including gender inequality). Contrary to the popular idea that competition in the global economy undermines international differences are made possible by a high international division of labor. Such a division allows firms to spezialize in production that requires an abundant supply of workers with specific skills, and hence high demand for protection. The rise of nontraded services undermines this specialization and increases demands for more flexible labor markets. 4a1. Welfare economics 4a2. Human capital 4a3.
