Abstract

The ambitions of economic and social policy seem to increase over time. The reach of the New Deal of the 1930s looks impressive but rather modest today. Even the Swedish “welfare state” of the same era was eventually outdone in far-reaching measures instituted in modern economies. New goals are being formulated and slowly converted into practical policy. The millennium development goals seemed reasonable as we entered the new millennium, but would certainly have seemed a pie in the sky to earlier politicians…
