| Abstract: | It is analysed in this article, what drives both the specific choices and the relative amount of change in labour market policies in two countries, Britain and Spain in the 1990s. Although more substantial and radical labour market reform is found in Britain, Spain experienced greater union inclusion in policy-making. The roles of economic institutions and the ideology of the governing party are examined and it is found that neither accounts satisfactorily for the labour market changes in the presented cases. |
