Disability and Social Policy in Britain Since 1750: A History of Exclusion
ISBN: 9780333912546 / Angielski / Twarda / 306 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Disability and Social Policy in Britain since 1750 explores experiences of physical and mental impairment in Britain since the Industrial Revolution. The book's starting point is the exclusion of disabled people from the full rights of citizenship because of their marginality to the labour market. Institutional living and community care are then examined with reference to the changing mixed economy of health and social care. Literary, oral and visual sources complement documentary evidence, and particular attention is paid to the personal testimonies of disabled people.

The Market in Chinese Social Policy
ISBN: 9780333917794 / Angielski / Twarda / 169 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The introduction of market reforms has radically transformed China. The Market in Chinese Social Policy examines the impact of a shift to market principles in the critical sector of social policy. The contributors demonstrate how social policy reform has been driven by economic transformation, as profound structural change produced inevitable knock-on effects in people's livelihood. Marketization in social policy in turn creates new needs and raises issues that challenge commonly accepted notions of public-private responsibilities in a society undergoing rapid and deep social change.

Housing and the Welfare State: The Development of Housing Policy in Britain
ISBN: 9780333962084 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This new analysis of housing policy in Britain since 1945 challenges conventional notions of the relationship between housing and the welfare state. It argues that housing policy in the years after the Second World War is better understood in terms of market restructuring.
