The changing face of welfare

About this book

"There have been major shifts in the framework of social policy and welfare across Europe. Adopting a multilevel, comparative and interdisciplinary approach, this book develops a critical analysis of policy change and welfare reform. The book applies a dynamic and change oriented perspective to shed light on policy changes that are often poorly understood in the welfare literature, and contributes to a further development of the theoretical and conceptual frameworks for understanding social change."--BOOK JACKET.
