The recent radical cutbacks of the welfare state in the UK have
meant that poverty and income management continue to be of great
importance for intellectual, public and policy discourse. Written
by leading authors in the field, the central interest of this
innovative book is the role and significance of family in a context
of poverty and low-income. Based on a micro-level study carried out
in 2011 and 2012 with 51 families in Northern Ireland, it offers
new empirical evidence and a theorisation of the relationship
between family life and poverty. Different chapters explore
parenting, the management of money, family support and local
engagement. By revealing the ordinary and extraordinary practices
involved in constructing and managing family and relationships in
circumstances of low incomes, the book will appeal to a wide
readership, including policy makers.
