[A] New Century of Corporatism? does not attempt to predict the future, but it provides an astute assessment of the factors that will likely shape it. In doing so, it contributes not only to our understanding of Spain and Portugal but also to major debates in comparative political economy. -www.apsanet.org YA New Century of Corporatism? does not attempt to predict the future, but it provides an astute assessment of the factors that will likely shape it.

No other book of this detail and conceptual richness has been published on this issue. -Professor Marino Regini Facolta di Scienze Politiche, Universita degli Studi di Milano .,. .Royo argues that macro-social concertation is alive (if not always, well) in Spain and Portugal precisely because it is not the same thing. And, in so doing, he turns much of the received wisdom about neo-corporatism on its ear. Provocative reading for anyone interested in state-society relations in contemporary Europe. -Philippe C.
