Rethinking Social Policy by Gail Lewis
Rethinking Social Policy is a comprehensive introduction to, and analysis of, the complex mixture of problems and possibilities within the study of social policy. Contributors at the cutting edge of social policy analysis reflect upon the implications of new social and theoretical movements for welfare and the study of social policy. Topics covered include: criminology and crime control; race, class and gender; poverty and sexuality; the body and the emotions; violence; work and welfare in Europe. Examples are drawn from a variety of welfare sectors such as: social services and community care, health, education, employment, and criminal justice. This is a course reader for The Open University course (D860) Rethinking Social Practice.
`..several "student-friendly" features...It is, though, the range of topics explored in this volume, which distinguishes it from others in the field, and renders it a particularly valuable resource for students′ - Journal of Social Welfare and Family Law
