The challenge of meeting the growing cost of welfare is one of the most pressing issues facing governments of our time.

The book is written in a clear, accessible style, ideally suited to both teaching and study, and the general reader.

• The theory and practice of devolved tax and budgetary responsibilities between UK nations and in comparison with other countries

• New chapters on pensions and post-16 education

• More regular and extensive comparative analysis


Divided into 3 sections, covering Principles, Service funding, and The Future, the book Includes questions for discussion and suggestions for further reading, making it an easy-to-use, essential resource for both undergraduate and post-graduate students of Social Policy, Sociology, Politics and Public Administration.
