Description

Welfare Rights and Social Policy by Routledge offers a detailed introduction to social policy through the lens of welfare rights. This text explores these rights within historical, comparative, and critical contexts, making it a valuable resource for students and researchers in sociology and social sciences. As human rights become a central part of the global political agenda, this book examines why the status of welfare rights remains ambiguous. It addresses the fundamental connection between human well-being and access to essential services. The author examines how rights to social security, employment, housing, education, health, and social care function in society. Readers will gain insights into how these social rights are often subordinate to civil and political rights of citizenship. The book also discusses why these rights can be fragile and difficult to maintain. This text provides a necessary framework for understanding the complexities of social policy and the struggle for recognized welfare rights in a modern political landscape.
