Privatisation and the Welfare State
Originally published in 1984, Privatisation and the Welfare State
Brings together a distinguished set of experts on the Welfare State and its main policy areas of health care, housing, education and transport.
Each chapter provides some much-needed analysis of privatisation policies in areas where, too often, political rhetoric is allowed to dominate discussion.
The book makes a major contribution to the reader’s understanding of the complex issues involved in this controversial area of social policy.
As the first systematic evaluation of a broad range of welfare state privatisation proposals, it is essential reading for economists, social administrators, and political scientists.
