Opis

This four volume set provides a focal point for the study and analysis of welfare in developed societies. It comprises the key contributions that have been made to the understanding of welfare by leading theorists and researchers of social policy over the past century or so. In particular, it draws on seminal articles and papers published in academic journals and major edited collections which have been important in underpinning both later academic study and policy development. A wide historical reach gives readers across the world access to a range of material that focuses on international and comparative analysis.Part I: Welfare TheoryPart 2: The Development of WelfarePart 3: The Social Context of Welfare
