Remodelarea unui model? - Modelul Social European, schimbare și stabilitate în perioada pandemiei Covid-19
Remodeling a model? - The European Social Model, change and stability during the Covid-19 pandemic

Summary/Abstract: The pandemic is a social crisis, too. The European Union intends to create unified responses to this crisis and thus reduce the social costs. The pandemic modifies not only sectoral social policies, but also deeper aspects of the European social model, such as ideology and principles. This article explores changes of European social policies, in relation to personal and social life. The main assumption is that some of changes are adjustments to the pandemic, but most of them are rather pre-existing trends, now emphasized: larger decommodification, protection for atypical employment, social security schemes covering new risks and instruments for a new work-life balance.
