Summary

The relevance of the Nordic model of social and labor market policy for Latin America is explored in an examination of how the Nordic systems of social protection developed institutionally. The report also discusses what "best practices" of a Nordic model may be imported into a Latin American context, and how globalization affects those possibilities.--Abstract
