Exploring the lived realities of both poverty and prosperity in the
UK, this book examines the material and symbolic significance of
welfare austerity and its implications for social citizenship and
inequality. The book offers a rare and vivid insight into the
everyday lives, attitudes and behaviours of the rich as well as the
poor, demonstrating how those marginalised and validated by the
existing welfare system make sense of the prevailing
socio-political settlement and their own position within it.
Through the testimonies of both affluent and deprived citizens, the
book problematises dominant policy thinking surrounding the
functions and limits of welfare, examining the civic attitudes and
engagements of the rich and the poor, to demonstrate how welfare
austerity and rising structural inequalities secure and maintain
institutional legitimacy. The book offers a timely contribution to
academic and policy debates pertaining to citizenship, welfare
reform and inequality.
