Description

'It is lucidly-written and is recommended as a good first-year student text for introductory courses in social policy.' - Edwin Griggs, Political Studies 'This ambitious, but easily comprehensible, book looks at the political history of the welfare state starting at the end of the Second World War. . . . What is useful here is the review of the welfare systems across the board to include employment, education, housing and social security all of which have an influence on health status.' - Andrew Wall, Health Services Management the Welfare State in Britain presents a history of British social policy from the election of Clement Attlee to the fall of Margaret Thatcher. Michael Hill focuses upon the political processes which influenced the key reforms of the late 1940s, and the ways in which those reforms have subsequently been consolidated and undermined. He critically examines some of the theories drawn from political science which have been used to explain the growth of the welfare state in Britain. the so called 'crisis of the welfare state' that has dominated recent rhetoric is shown to have its origins in the very period when the welfare state was believed to have been created. Despite its importance for electoral politics, social policy is shown to have often been subordinate to economic and foreign policy.
