The largest UK research study on poverty and social exclusion ever
conducted reveals startling levels of deprivation. 18m people are
unable to afford adequate housing; 14m can't afford essential
household goods; and nearly half the population have some form of
financial insecurity. Defining poverty as those whose lack of
resources forces them to live below a publicly agreed minimum
standard, this text provides unique and detailed insights into the
nature and extent of poverty and social exclusion in the UK today.
Written by a team of leading academics, the book reports on the
extent and nature of poverty for different social groups: older and
younger people; parents and children; ethnic groups; men and women;
disabled people; and across regions through the recent period of
austerity. It reflects on where government policies have made an
impact and considers potential future developments. A companion
volume Poverty and Social Exclusion in the UK Volume 2 focuses on
different aspects of poverty and social exclusion identified in the
study.
