In this enlightening study, Ian Cummins traces changing attitudes
to penal and welfare systems. From Margaret Thatcher's first
cabinet, to austerity politics via New Labour, the book reveals the
ideological shifts that have led successive governments to
reinforce their penal powers. It shows how 'tough on crime'
messages have spread to other areas of social policy, fostering the
neoliberal political economy, encouraging hostile approaches to the
social state and creating stigma for those living in poverty. This
is an important addition to the debate around the complex and
interconnected issues of welfare and punishment.
