Description

Freedom, Equality and the Market: Arguments on Social Policy provides a deep look into the role of public intervention within social and economic processes. Published by Routledge, this textbook is designed for students of social theory who want to understand the different theoretical and political perspectives that shape modern social policy. Author Barry Hindess examines the consensus view held by senior politicians, civil servants, and academics during much of the postwar period. The text explores two fundamental beliefs that underpin this perspective: the capacity of government to manage the economy and the evolving relationship between the state and the population. By analyzing these dynamics, the book offers a clear and critical discussion of how social policy functions in a changing world. This is an essential resource for those studying anthropology, sociology, and the complexities of state intervention.
