Description

This updated edition, written by social policy and welfare experts, shows how the mixed economy of welfare links with the important conceptual and policy debates. As the state withdraws from welfare provision, the mixed economy of welfare — involving private, voluntary and informal sectors — has become ever more important. This second edition of Powell's acclaimed textbook on the subject brings together a wealth of respected contributors and contains helpful features such as summaries, questions for discussion, further reading suggestions and electronic resources. It will be a valuable introductory resource for students of social policy, social welfare and social work at both undergraduate and postgraduate level.
