Description

In his essay "The end of laissez-faire", Keynes distinguished between the agenda and the non-agenda of government. This book asks how we interpret that distinction today. * A ground-breaking collection concerned with rethinking the contemporary role of the state. * Comprises essays written by leading scholars and politicians. * Looks back at the expansion of the social democratic state in post-war Britain, and at the subsequent challenge to this from neo-liberal ideas and policies. * Discusses new doctrines for managing the state, new conceptions of the state, and new ideas for organising the delivery of public services. * Covers current concepts, such as the enabling state, and topical issues such as public private partnerships. * Goes beyond traditional 'state versus market' arguments. * Opens up new conceptual and practical territory.
