In the field of anti-poverty policies, the interplay between the Europe 2020 overarching strategy and the ''Semester'' have marked major discontinuity vis-à-vis the Open Method of Coordination for social protection and social inclusion (Social OMC) of the Lisbon phase. This book therefore asks whether and how Europe matters in the fight against poverty and social exclusion by assessing the emergence and possible institutionalisation of a European multi-level, multi-stakeholder and integrated policy arena in the new institutional framework.
Supranational developments, multi-level interactions, as well as the strategy effects at the national level are analysed in six European countries - Belgium, Germany, Italy, Poland, UK and Sweden – with the aim to identify the key factors affecting the implementation of the Europe 2020 anti-poverty strategy.
This book will be of key interest to students, scholars and practitioners in social policy, political science and European governance, and more broadly to European Union politics, European integrations studies, sociology and economics.

This book provides a theoretically informed, empirically grounded account of the origin, expansion, and institutionalization of the EU''s action against food poverty and severe material deprivation. In doing so, the analysis spans more than three decades, from the quasi-accidental onset of the first food aid program in the late 1980s under the Common Agricultural Policy to its current, puzzling, and contested consolidation as a narrow yet symbolic element of Social Europe''s architecture.
More precisely, the study offers an in-depth examination of the governance and implementation of European Food Aid Policy (EFAP) while exploring the political and institutional dynamics shaping its trajectory over time. Deploying primarily a historical institutionalist approach, the book addresses two key questions: Why did EFAP emerge despite the EU’s limited role in anti-poverty policies? And how did it survive and consolidate, particularly during the 2008–2014 critical juncture, despite growing adverse conditions? By treating EFAP as a “least-likely case” for European integration, the research sheds light on broader political and institutional dynamics behind the making of Social Europe.
This in-depth study will be of key interest to scholars, students, and practitioners in the field of EU social policy and policymaking, as well as, more broadly, in EU studies and comparative welfare state research.
