Bochel, Hugh M.,

The coalition government and social policy : restructuring the welfare state / Hugh Bochel and Martin Powell. - viii, 392 pages : illustrations (black and white) ; 24 cm

Includes bibliographical references and index.

This text responds to the political and policy changes made by the Coalition government up to the 2015 general election providing a reflection across the social policies of this government. It reflects on the first 100 days of the new UK Conservative government and considers the implications of decisions made in that period. In doing so it provides a timely assessment of the extent of change in social policies and the wider environment under the Coalition government in part, but by no means limited to, the impact of 'austerity.' It therefore provides a consideration of the major influences on policy under the Coalition.
