Abstract
Does the freer movement of goods, people, ideas and money across national boundaries mean that, as Charles Kindleberger (1969):207 put it, "the nation state is just about through as an economic unit" when it comes to the provision of social insurance and programs of egalitarian redistribution? Surely globalization will not eliminate the conditions economic insecurity and distributions of income widely thought to be unfair that initially gave rise to the welfare state. What form will responses to these conditions take in a globally integrated economy?
