Examining, in the widest sense, the changes in political philosophy
that have occurred in Western capitalist states since the early
1980s, this book focuses on the introduction of neo-liberal
principles in the combined area of social and education policy. New
Zealand presents a paradigm example of the neo-liberal shift in
political philosophy. From constituting the social laboratory of
the Western world in the 1930s in terms of social welfare
provision, New Zealand has become the neo-liberal experiment of the
fully marketised society in the 1990s. Against the theoretical
background of educational theory and practice, this book examines
neo-liberalism and its critiques as responses to the so-called
crisis of the welfare state and argues for a reformulated critical
social policy in the postmodern condition. The conclusions about
social policy drawn by the authors can be generalized to similar
situations in other Western capitalist countries.
