Welfare: Needs, Rights and Risks addresses the question of how
people get access to social welfare in the UK today. It explores
the public, political and professional definitions, constructions
and conflicts about who should receive social welfare and under
what conditions. In a period during which the rationing, targeting
and selective provision of welfare have become more significant,
more visible and more disputed, this book examines how individuals
and groups come to be defined as in need, at risk or deserving of
welfare.
