Theorising Welfare by Sue Penna
This text looks at the historical and contemporary changes in social welfare systems and provision, and the debates and struggles surrounding them. The perspectives of liberalism, Marxism, neo-liberalism and post-structuralism, are used to provide an introduction to the theoretical frameworks.
`Very well written and painstakingly clearIt is an accessible and original textbook on the welfare state and the idea of welfare. There is nothing available like it in terms of its scope and intellectual sweep′ - Scott Lash, University of Lancaster
