Beschreibung
The UK Social Policy Process examines the wide range of factors that influence social policies and their outcomes. Devolution, 'modernisation', reform of the public services, emphases on public participation and on 'what works' in the delivery of welfare are all impacting on and shaping social policy. Combining coverage of theoretical perspectives with discussion of institutional change, this book provides a timely examination of the policy process and social policy, from agenda setting to implementation and evaluation.
One of the few books to comprehensively examine social policy from the perspective of the policy process. Uses strong practical examples to illustrate the applicability of certain ideas to contemporary social policy. Encourages students to develop their ideas and make links between theory, structures and practice.
