This topical textbook
provides a critical introduction to the current debates and politics
surrounding welfare reform in the United Kingdom and the United
States. By explaining the origins and main tenets of the new Blair-Clinton
orthodoxy and comparing policy in Western Europe with the dilemmas
facing the governments of Central and Eastern Europe, it is the
first text to place the reform process in the context of the post-war
state's development, and the present global political and economic
situation.
The book accessibly links the new politics of welfare to liberal
and communitarian theories of citizenship and social justice,
and assess the broader prospects for European policy in the struggle
over economic and political integration. (Sage Publications, October
1998, 256pp, cloth £45.00, paperback £14.99.
