Social Policy Review 15: UK and International Perspectives, Volume 15Bochel, Catherine, Ellison, Nick, Martin Powell Policy Press, 16 juil. 2003 - 288 pages Social Policy Review 15 continues the tradition of providing a different style and approach to policy issues from that found in most academic journals and books. Welfare and Welfare Reform in the USA, Europe and the UK combines issues such as globalization, Europe and pensions with examination of the current and historical contexts of social policy. Chapters have been purposely chosen to review a varied and interesting selection of topical social policy developments and to set these in a broader context of key trends and debates. Published in association with the UK Social Policy Association. |
