摘要

欧盟正在向再保险联盟演变吗？SURE 是欧盟在大流行病期间支持各国短期工作 (STW) 计划的一种金融工具，它的建立重新激发了关于财政稳定器的讨论，使其成为欧盟内部应对经济衰退和保护就业的一种手段。本研究通过对文件的分析以及对欧盟和各国利益相关者的 17 次访谈，探讨了在欧洲失业再保险计划（EURS）经过十年激烈而失败的辩论之后，采用 SURE 的政治基础。文章通过 "有目的的机会主义 "这一视角，阐述了欧盟委员会是如何利用先前对欧洲失业再保险计划的见解和对 STW 计划的新共识来制定 SURE 的，从而在将欧盟定位为各国福利国家的容纳环境的同时，解决了各国对欧盟范围内福利协调的担忧。展望未来，使 SURE 成为抵御宏观经济冲击的永久性 "第二道防线"，将有助于进一步巩固《欧洲社会权利支柱》中编纂的新的、全欧盟范围的社会权利。

Towards a Re-insurance union? Support to mitigate unemployment risks in an emergency as an EU response to preserve jobs in the COVID-19 pandemic

Is the EU evolving towards a Re-Insurance Union? The creation of SURE, an EU financial tool to support national short-time work (STW) schemes in the midst of the pandemic, has revitalized debates on fiscal stabilizers as a means to counter economic downturns and protect jobs within the European Union. Drawing from document analyses and 17 interviews with EU and national stakeholders, this study explores the politics underpinning SURE’s adoption following a decade of heated and unsuccessful debates on the European Unemployment Reinsurance Scheme (EURS). Through the lens of ‘purposeful opportunism’, the article illustrates how the European Commission leveraged prior EURS insights and the emerging consensus on STW schemes to craft SURE in a way which addressed national concerns about EU-wide welfare harmonization, while positioning the EU as a holding environment for national welfare states. Looking ahead, making SURE a permanent ‘second line of defence’ against macroeconomic shocks could contribute to further substantiating new, EU-wide, social rights codified in the European Pillar of Social Rights.

期刊介绍： The Journal of European Social Policy publishes articles on all aspects of social policy in Europe. Papers should make a contribution to understanding and knowledge in the field, and we particularly welcome scholarly papers which integrate innovative theoretical insights and rigorous empirical analysis, as well as those which use or develop new methodological approaches. The Journal is interdisciplinary in scope and both social policy and Europe are conceptualized broadly. Articles may address multi-level policy making in the European Union and elsewhere; provide cross-national comparative studies; and include comparisons with areas outside Europe.
