 The
overall objective of the Translearn project
is to develop a road map for transnational learning for
how citizens in different socioeconomic models can make
experimental use of existing institutions, create new
governance modes and collaborative partnerships across
sectors, levels and divisions of interests.
Core findings from the project are
reported in the following book:
Nordic Capitalisms and Globalization. New Forms of
Economic Organization and Welfare Institutions,
edited by Professor Peer Hull Kristensen, Copenhagen
Business School, and Professor Kari Lilja, Aalto
University School of Economics
This book investigates how and why
welfare services, active labour market institutions, and
public policies were re-combined into enabling and
risk-sharing mechanisms to stimulate innovation, and how
this made it possible for firms to change their work
organization and pursue highly rewarding and distinctive
globalization strategies. Through detailed analysis of
Finland, Denmark, Norway and Sweden, this book reveals
the dynamics and transformations of their national
business systems, and the emerging new patterns of
interaction between firms, labour markets, and
institutions. It will be a valuable addition to the
literature on social innovation and institutional
entrepreneurship.
