description: Contributes to the theoretical debate and empirical analysis surrounding the development of new social policy in Britain to replace the shambles of the 19th-century welfare state that Conservative rule is leaving in its wake. Examines such aspects as the policy research process, racism and health policy, citizenship, rights, inequalities, the environment, planning, and bureaucracy. The 12 papers are from a 1993 British Sociological Association conference in Essex. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
