Description

Using some of the hottest current debates about the problems and benefits of state-funded welfare, this book develops students social science understanding and analytic skills. Visually and pedagogically rich, this wide-ranging introduction to key concepts and debates in welfare uses an innovative, question-based narrative to highlight the importance of theory to understanding welfare. In unpacking common questions and assumptions, it teases out how ideas such as neo-liberalism, globalisation and risk have shifted welfare debates. Through its novel structure the book explores the interconnections and overlaps between various concepts, for example how entitlement to support is shaped by debates regarding need, citizenship and equality. Written by an experienced, innovative and inspiring lecturer this book is suitable for undergraduate students of social policy, sociology, politics, public policy, social work, health and social care and those taking courses on welfare theory, principles of social policy, key issues in welfare policy and similar courses.
