Welfare and Insecurity in Europe in an Age of Austerity; Readings From the Oñati Socio-Legal Series

(Pix © Larry Catá Backer 2015)

The International Institute for the Sociology of Law (IISL) in Oñati is devoted to teaching and promoting the sociology of law, socio-legal studies, and law and society research. The IISL is a joint venture of the Research Committee on Sociology of Law (also known as RC12 of the International Sociological Association) and the government of the Basque autonomous region in Spain and is hosted by the University of Oñati.

IISL is noted for its  Socio-Legal Series, the current issue of which caught my eye.  It offers a series of papers that consider welfare and insecurity in Europe in an age of austerity.  Entitled "Social Responses to the Crisis and the Precarization of Life Conditions in Contemporary Society;" it is edited by Benjamín Tejerina (Universidad del País Vasco-Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatea). The table of contents and links to the papers appear below.
