内容説明

In "Welfare and Citizenship", Ian Culpitt assesses the justification for welfare politics in the light of the neo-conservative challenge. He examines the underlying philosophical foundations of welfare systems and whether welfare states have promoted an emphasis on the welfare rights of those in need at the expense of the obligations of those with resources. The ideal of citizenship providing a new political base for welfare policies is explored. The author also examines the central policy problems raised by the economic contexts of contemporary welfare and by the challenge to conventional welfare posed by the neo-conservative emphasis on the "efficient" management of welfare and the privatization and contracting out of services. Analyzing both the fundamental questions of citizenship in welfare states and the central problems posed by the efficacy of welfare policies, the book offers a reassessment of the core issues in contemporary social policy.
