Then there are the issues of Europe and its continued relevance, the level of coverage, and what readers both inside and outside the continent may make of the content. Put another way, is the book’s implicit assumption of the need to disseminate European practices really warranted? This is more difficult to answer in so far as the collection is very inward-facing and it is essentially a set of self-contained studies. Many examples of good and innovative practices are undoubtedly cited, and they deserve to be included in the volume. However, the benchmarking is largely internal and based on the judgement of the editor as well as the authors. In the design of a book with this sort of stated purpose, much greater pan-European comparison or analysis throughout and between the chapters might have been reasonably expected. Nostalgia has a funny effect on people, but perhaps one of the features of social sciences research from the 1980s and 1990s that we have lost by stealth through the disciplining of subjects and research assessment, is good old-fashioned comparative research.
