Description
"Australia's Welfare Wars questions many of the values and assumptions that underpin contemporary social welfare policies. In particular, it critically examines the neoliberal or economic rationalist ideas currently dominating the welfare debates both in Australia and internationally, and demonstrates and reaffirms the ongoing relevance of social-democratic and welfare-state ideals." --Cover.
