Our country case studies show that the revision has had very limited impact on national labour law, and has not been use to reverse liberalisation - even in countries that strongly supported the revision. We explain why this is the case in this @jeppjournal.bsky.social article.

Daniel Seikel and I address this question by studying the first legislative initiative in the social shift: the PWD revision. Its adoption process was highly politicised, and its adoption proclaimed a major victory for social Europe. It is therefore an excellent test case.

Context: Scholars claim that Social Europe is undergoing a substantial revival that mark the ‘departure from the neoliberal mode of European economic integration’. But what is the actual impact of new EU policies on national law, and do they really counteract EU liberalisation?
