Description: A central preoccupation in both developed and developing countries is the impact of globalization on social policy. Globalization affects social policy both at the normative level and in a more practical way, by setting constraints that social policy must be attentive to. Adhesion to international conventions and responses to an international discourse of ‘social rights’ permeate domestic politics and affect social policy – or at least the thinking about it. At the more practical level, it is often feared that globalization is not only reversing the social gains made in the developed countries in the ‘golden era’ of capitalism and the welfare state, but that it makes it highly improbable that developing countries will have the policy autonomy to nurture interventions in the labour market without losing international competitiveness and scaring away domestic and foreign investors
