Description

Social justice and social policy in Scotland offers a critical engagement with the state of social policy in one of the devolved nations of the UK, a decade after the introduction of devolution. Promoting greater social justice has been held up as a key vision of successive Scottish administrations since devolution began. It is argued throughout this important book that the analysis of Scottish social policy must therefore be located in wider debates around social injustice as well as about how the devolution process affects the making, implementation and impact of social policy. Social justice and social policy in Scotland focuses on a diverse range of topics and issues, including income inequalities, work and welfare, criminal justice, housing, education, health and poverty, each reflecting the themes of social inequality and social justice. This book will be essential reading for academics, researchers, policy makers and practitioners as well as students of social policy and of society in Scotland and other devolved nations. Review Bold and considered treatment of controversial subjects...this book provides rigorous analysis of progress made so far towards the stated aims of social justice and social policy in Scotland. International Review of Scottish StudiesThis work analyses developments in a comprehensive range of Scottish social policies, addressing key and controversial issues. It makes an invaluable contribution to demonstrating the importance of devolution for the contemporary analysis of social policy.
