Description

The Social Fund 20 Years On by Chris Grover offers a deep look into the historical and policy aspects of loaning social security. Marking two decades of operation since its introduction in 1988, this study provides a critical reflection on how the Social Fund has functioned over time. This groundbreaking work challenges the 1980s argument that using loans to relieve need was a new concept in social security policy. By placing the Social Fund within its proper historical context, Grover provides evidence that contradicts previous assumptions. This book is an essential resource for those studying the history of social security practice and the long-standing debates surrounding loan-based assistance.
