This wide-ranging guide to key concepts and debates in welfare uses an innovative, question-based narrative to highlight the importance of theory to understanding social policy. It unpacks common questions and assumptions about the purpose, value and focus of welfare systems and provides students with a comprehensive vocabulary and toolkit for analysing policy examples and developing social science arguments.
Dr Lee Gregory is Lecturer in Social Policy at the University of Birmingham. Lee's research interests include poverty and inequality as well as theoretical and conceptual debates about welfare provision. He is specifically interested in the role of welfare provision in perpetuating and challenging social problems.
