Social policy in times of austerity : global economic crisis and the new politics of welfare /

Mostrar otras versiones (1)

The 2008 global economic crisis has led to a new age of austerity, based more on politics than economics, which threatens to undermine the very foundations of the welfare state. However, as resistance to the logic of austerity grows, this important book argues that there is still room for optimism.
