Cover of Colin Samson & Nigel South: Social Construction of Social Policy (PDF)

This volume draws together an impressive series of papers that explore enduring and new problems in the construction and analysis of British social policy. Critical but accessible, the various chapters cover methodological issues and the nature of competing claims about social policy ‘knowledge’, racism and health services, citizenship and access to housing and other amenities, and the importance of the environment as an emerging area for social policy debate.
