CEPA Research Projects Globalization and Social Policy Research on the three-year MacArthur Globalization and Social Policy project began in the Fall of 1996. The aim was to explore the possible interconnection between globalization and social policy and to analyze recent experiences of groups of countries in both the developed and developing worlds. It was also hoped to identify types of domestic social policies which are most compatible with a national economy's increased integration into the international economy. The role of principal investigator of the project was turned over from John Eatwell to Lance Taylor in December 1996, upon Eatwell's becoming President of Queen's College at Cambridge University. Project associates were Bennett Harrison, Professor of Urban Political Economy at the Robert J. Milano Graduate School of Management and Urban Policy at the New School, David Howell, Associate Professor and Chair of the Urban Policy and Management Program at the Milano Graduate School and William Milberg, Assistant Professor of Economics at the New School. Findings of the research were presented at a Workshop on Globalization and Social Policy on May 1, 1998. In addition, a number of working papers were published by CEPA in the series Working Papers on Globalization, Labor Markets, and Social Policy.
