Abstract:
This book explores the origins, content and consequences of Third Way social policy reform in the welfare systems of industrialized economies. It considers the extent to which Third Way ideology and institutional structures converge or vary in various national settings. The book is divided into three parts. Part I traces the political and historical development of the Third Way social policy agenda. Part II focuses on the areas central to restructuring welfare states. Part III discusses the meaning of a Third Way approach of social policy.
