Description

Explore the significant transformation of labour market policy in the United Kingdom since the mid 1990s. This academic work examines how the obligation for unemployed individuals to seek work has grown stronger and how social security benefits are now linked to active job search and placement programmes. This book provides a deep look into how the United States influenced these changes. By examining US experiments with welfare to work programmes that began in the early 1980s, the authors track how American ideology helped shape the reform programmes seen in the UK. It is an essential read for those studying the evolution of social security and labour market policies through a comparative lens.
