ISBN: 9781137388964 / Angielski / Miękka / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Social policy is a subject that helps develop our understanding of the meaning of human wellbeing, and of the systems by which wellbeing must be promoted. As a discipline, social policy has traditionally been blunted by a focus on the nation state; however, in this age of globalisation the most pressing challenges such as climate change, ageing populations and flagging economies serve as proof that, even at national level, social policy is now more heavily influenced by global factors than ever before.
In this important and authoritative text, Kepa Artaraz and Michael Hill provide a... Social policy is a subject that helps develop our understanding of the meaning of human wellbeing, and of the systems by which wellbeing must be promo...

The transformation of night-watchman states into welfare states is one of the most notable societal developments in recent history.
