Description

Justice is a basic human right in all democratic doctrines, but in the marketization of welfare it's increasingly available only to those who can afford it. Professionals and volunteers are struggling to provide legal counselling and representation to disadvantaged communities. This book explores how strategies to safeguard these vital services can strengthen the basic ethics and principles of public service provision and shows how this might improve the positions of those who administer and need publicly provided legal services.
