Description

Explore the complex role of public safety agencies in modern society with On the Frontlines of the Welfare State. This Routledge volume examines how fire services and police departments do more than just protect well-being; they actively shape social problems and community inequities. Drawing on T.H. Marshall's concept of social rights and equitable citizenship, this book analyzes how these agencies function as essential parts of the welfare state. Readers will learn how public safety organizations manage vital functions such as emergency services, criminal investigations, regulatory oversight, and social service outreach. As public safety agencies are increasingly asked to absorb more social welfare functions, this text provides a necessary look at their expanding responsibilities. It is an essential resource for students and professionals interested in how policing and fire services impact the broader social fabric and the distribution of social rights within a community.
