The 2013 Kontanthjælpsreform (L 223) restructured the Danish cash- assistance regime: recipients under 30 without an education were moved from kontanthjælp to a lower uddannelseshjælp level with an education requirement; cohabiting partners became jointly means-tested for benefit eligibility; a nytteindsats activation duty was introduced. Stated objective: shift younger unemployed recipients onto education tracks and raise labour-supply incentives within the flexicurity framework. Combined with the 2013 førtidspension-fleksjob reform to redirect younger disability-pension claimants to active tracks.
Per invariant 3, reforms are scored by what they did on each channel-separated axis, not by the party that enacted them. This fingerprint is how the policy-match engine finds historical analogues.
Explicit links are curated by the author. Inferred links are hypotheses in the library that test the same axes this policy moved — the framework's answer to "what does the data say about a policy like this?".
Ranked by axis-fingerprint overlap with this policy. Direction match bolded — those are the closest historical analogues. Shape of the match is what drives policy-outcome comparison, not the country or party label.
