Ireland, Portugal and Slovenia – three states with different historical legacies and institutional frameworks – promoted labour market flexibility and active labour market policies before and during the 2008 crisis. These policies were postulated as basic policies on the EU level. However, a significant change came with the COVID-19 crisis when governments in all three states implemented measures much more resembling neo-Keynesian policies. In the article, we show that the crucial mechanisms for the various labour market policy choices made in these three countries were due to the two crises being of distinct types, the (non)coincidence of interests of a range of actors and classes, and the different policy frameworks promoted by the EU Irska, Portugalska in Slovenija, tri države z različno zgodovino in institucionalnim okvirjem, so pred krizo leta 2008 in po njej spodbujale fleksibilizacijo trga dela in aktivne politike zaposlovanja. Te politike so bile postavljene kot temeljne politike na ravni EU. Vendar je med krizo, ki jo je povzročil covid-19, prišlo do pomembne spremembe, saj so vlade v vseh treh državah izvajale ukrepe, ki so mnogo bolj spominjali na neokeynesianske politike. V članku pojasnjujemo, da so bili ključni mehanizmi za različne izbire politik trga dela v treh državah pogojeni z različnimi tipi obeh kriz, (ne)sovpadanjem interesov različnih akterjev in razredov ter različnimi javnopolitičnimi okvirji, ki jih je spodbujala EU. |
