What is States of Welfare : a Comparative Analysis of Social Policy about?
Comparative analysis is sometimes seen as a marginal issue in the study of social policy, yet its neglect has led to some surprisingly inappropriate conclusions about how social welfare systems develop. In States of Welfare Joan Higgins argues that comparative methods are fundamental to any real understanding of social policy, and looks at some of the key issues involved.
