| Abstract: | Can social policy remain a national concern while economic relations are being increasingly internationalized? The 1992 European internal market programme poses this issue in immediately practical terms owing to the present diversity in both levels and styles of social protection. Failure to achieve even basic Community-wide labour standards could result in de facto "deregulation" by enabling firms to evade national standards and encouraging individual States to exploit their "comparative advantage" in social costs for national economic purposes. The prospects are discussed for effective EC-wide social regulation of employment and the potential for destructive "social competition" in the absence of such supranational regulation. |
