social policy in the modern world: a comparative text
michael hill
Synopsis "social policy in the modern world: a comparative text"
this textprovides a coherent, thematic account of social policy in the modern world. taking a comparative perspective, it explores similarities and differences in the ways in which different countries approach social policy, both by looking at the broad characteristics of those policies and by examining variations in the ways in which key issues of social welfare are handled. the book is organised into three parts. the first part examines approaches to looking at social policy comparatively. the second examines individual policy areas, including social security, employment policy (in a chapter contributed by margaret may), health services, social care and education. the third provides a comparative exploration of some key issues for the contemporary study of social policy, such as the implications of ageing societies and the impact of global forces.
