Abstract

'Is Child Welfare Converging in the European Union?' Now published by The Policy Press, UK, as 'The Welfare of Europe's Children'. Order from Marston Book Services, fax +44 (0)1235 465556. E-mail: direct.orders@marston.co.uk This book analyses the living standards of the nearly 80 million children in the EU, who represent over a fifth of the Union's total population. By analysing the trends of child well-being in Europe over the last two decades the book asks whether the well-being of children in the EU is becoming more similar across member states or are countries diverging while their economies converge?
