Choice and Public Policy: The Limits to Welfare Markets
ISBN: 9780333731314 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 258 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Public policies increasingly emphasize active consumerism, entrepreneurship on the part of service providers and professionals, privatisation and an expanded role for markets. Choice and Public Policy draws on research by economists, psychologists, sociologists and public policy experts.

It also shows that the public policies of active consumerism, public sector...

Reframing Social Citizenship
ISBN: 9780199546718 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 242 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Throughout the world, governments are restructuring social and welfare provision to give a stronger role to opportunity, aspiration and individual responsibility, and to competition, markets, and consumer choice. This approach centers on a logic of individual rational action: people are the best judges of what serves their own interests and government should give them as much freedom of choice as possible.

New Paradigms in Public Policy
ISBN: 9780197264935 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

This is illustrated by discussion of climate change, demographic shifts, the response to greater ethnic and religious diversity, the debate about community and local area politics, democratization, nudge, the international financial crisis, and the growth...
