Authored by two highly respected and experienced academics, this book demonstrates the rewards of studying social policy from an international perspective by avoiding the constraints of a single-nation focus. Global in its canvas and analytical in its method, the book:
• Explores the economic, social and political contexts of social policy;
• Examines in detail its institutions and fields of practice;
• Illustrates the field’s main ideas, themes and practices drawing on a rich international literature and using pertinent and thought-provoking examples.
Michael Hill is Emeritus Professor of Social Policy at Newcastle University.
Zoë Irving is Reader in Comparative and International Social Policy at the University of York.
