Sažetak
In this text we revisit the shifting meanings and significance of the European social dimension, paying particular attention to the first and second iterations of the Lisbon strategy and the new vision of Europe 2020, and analyse the significance of the social impacts of the global economic and financial crisis on the reframing and remaking of 'social Europe'. We then move to the lessons which can be learnt from the integration of new member states, particularly the post-communist transition countries, eight in May 2004, and two in January 2007, an accession involving a number of rather poor countries with very different, and still developing, welfare systems from compared to those of the old member states. A third section focuses on the social policy dimensions of Croatia's accession, including the Joint Memorandum on Social Inclusion (JIM) signed by the European Union and the Government of Croatia on 5 March 2007. A brief concluding section looks at the likely impact of the new social agenda of the European Union for Croatia as the 28th member state of the European Union, expected to occur in 2012.
