Social Policy: Theory and practice is a fully revised, updated and
extended edition of a bestselling social policy textbook,
extensively reworked and adapted to meet the needs of its
international readership. The book lays out the architecture of
social policy as a field of study, binding the discussion of theory
to the understanding of social policy in practice. It aims to
provide students and practitioners with a sense of the scope, range
and purpose of the subject while developing critical awareness of
problems, issues and common fallacies. Written in an accessible and
engaging style, it explains what social policy is and why it
matters; looks at social policy in its social context; considers
policy, the role of the state and the social services; explores
issues in social administration and service delivery; and focuses
on the methods and approaches of the subject. For practitioners,
there are discussions of the techniques and approaches used to
apply social policy in practice. For students, there are boxes
raising issues and reviewing case studies, questions for discussion
and a detailed glossary. The book's distinctive, path-breaking
approach makes it invaluable for students studying social policy at
a range levels, professionals and practitioners in the field of
social policy.
