About The Book
In Europe and the Fight Against Poverty and Social Exclusion, Ilaria Madama explores the role of Europe in addressing pressing issues of poverty and social exclusion. The book critically examines whether and how Europe can effectively contribute to these challenges, particularly by assessing the emergence of a European multi-level, multi-stakeholder, and integrated policy approach within the new institutional framework.

Madama investigates the complex dynamics of the European Union's involvement in shaping social policies aimed at reducing inequality and exclusion. The book assesses the potential for institutionalizing these policies at a European level, looking at the integration of various actors and stakeholders, and their collective impact on addressing social challenges.

This work offers a deep dive into the evolving landscape of European social policy, making it a valuable resource for scholars, policymakers, and practitioners involved in social policy, European studies, and related fields. It offers critical insights into the future of European social policy and its potential to combat poverty and exclusion across the continent.
