This book offers insights into the development of social welfare policies in Britain. By identifying continuities in welfare policy, practice and thought throughout history, it offers the potential for the development of new thinking, policy making and practice.
It challenges tacitly accepted arguments that favour particular approaches to welfare, such as conditionality and eligibility and provides examples of enduring social assumptions which influence the way we perform social welfare.
