Publisher Description: Connections between welfare reforms, employment relations and social and geographical inequalities are explored in this perceptive assessment by David Etherington. Drawing on case studies and considering the impact of Universal Credit, this book highlights the role of trade unions and social movements in challenging the insecurities and inequalities imposed by work-focused welfare policies and suggests progressive new paths for welfare. |
