Welfare states face profound challenges. At the same time, recent decades have seen a resurgence of social justice activism at both the local and the transnational level. Widening economic and social inequalities have been intensified by austerity politics, sharpened by the rise in ethno-nationalism and exposed by the COVID-19 pandemic.
