First published in 1998 this volume offers some solutions to the inherent difficulties with moving from philosophical generalities to specific policies by exploring how a bridge might be built between political philosophy and social policy analysis. In light of these findings Steven R. Smith evaluates the relationship between the Centre-Left and the New Right focusing on the way in which concepts of individual autonomy and equality are used by political philosophers and social policy makers. Smith explores post-1945 training education social security and community care policy within the United Kingdom. |The Centre-left and New Right Divide?
