Context
David Rueda, professor of Comparative Politics, University of Oxford, will lead this interactive roundtable on how the electoral coalitions of European centre‐left parties are threatened by an insider‐outsider dilemma: social democrats have become unable to reconcile the demands of two groups of voters that have traditionally supported them: on the one hand labour market “outsiders,” who have insecure jobs or no jobs at all; on the other hand labour market “insiders” with stable employment.
The seminar is informed by the Political Observatory article The insider-outsider dilemma by David Rueda Professor & Johannes Lindvall.
Speaker:
David Rueda, Professor of comparative politics in the Department of Politics and International Relations, Oxford University
Respondents:
- Nicola Smith, head, Economic and Social Affairs Department, TUC
- Polly Toynbee, columnist, The Guardian
- Peter Kellner, president, YouGov
