Exit Polder Model?

The book explores the economic success of the Netherlands through the lens of the polder model, which represents a collaborative approach among business, government, and labor to safeguard the economy. It examines how globalization and American influence are reshaping this model and questions whether its effectiveness can endure in the face of external pressures. Delsen argues that while the polder model has historically protected the nation's interests, it may be nearing its conclusion due to evolving economic challenges.
