Abstract
mants, in contrast to respondent JP staff. Adding weight to this, claimants participating in JP indicated considerable pressure to take any job, as quickly as possible, irrespective of their stated preferences. Given the recent contracting out of the LES along the lines of the JP programme we can surmise State Managers regard the effects of market managerialism (and by implication – workfare) a success in promoting labour discipline and commodification. Overall, this is an empirically rich and theoretically sophisticated account of welfare reform in Ireland that adds to our understanding of how and why market managerialist forms of welfare governance improve the state’s capacity to enact punitive activation of benefit claimants and work against claimant–SLB solidarity. Well-written and tightly structured this book warrants a place on the reading list of anyone interested active labour market policy and governance.
