Reframing Social Citizenship
ISBN: 9780199546701 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 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. The UK has gone further than any other major European country in reform and provides a useful object lesson.

Choice and Public Policy: The Limits to Welfare Markets
ISBN: 9780333731314 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 258 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 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. The research demonstrates that the traditional rational choice model of economic behaviour is unsatisfactory in providing accounts of the way people choose in relation to work, saving, spending, investment and social welfare. It also shows that the public policies of active consumerism, public sector...

ISBN: 9780199267262 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 262 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book introduces the concept of new social risks in welfare state studies and explains their relevance to the comparative understanding of social policy in Europe.

Self and Ego reminds you of the...
