The New Politics of Welfare
Author: Bill Jordan
Publisher: SAGE
ISBN: 9780761960225
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 282
Book Description
This critical and highly topical introduction to the current debates and politics surrounding welfare reform in the United Kingdom and the United States explains the origins and main tenets of the new Blair-Clinton orthodoxy. Central to the book is an examination of this orthodoxy's appeal to the concept of social justice. Bill Jordan demonstrates how values derived from the family and voluntary associations are in danger of running counter to the more fundamental principles of liberal democracy and the requirements of transnational economic exchange.

Building a Social Science
Author: Kirsten Madden
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0197693733
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 361
Book Description
The Industrial Revolution offered promises of material abundance. In nineteenth century Britain, a series of major cooperative thinkers seized on these possibilities. In effect, they turned the mainstream economics of scarcity on its head and together shaped a humane social science. This book moves toward a reconstruction of nineteenth century British cooperative thought. The analysis is rich in insights still relevant to the present--insights concerning employment relations, persistent inequality, and low levels of human development.
