Synopsis

The financial crisis of 2008 led the United Kingdom s Labour Government to make changes primarily cuts to social programs and a wide range of social services. The subsequent Coalition Government followed those changes with much more dramatic cuts. This book offers the first in-depth empirical analysis of the two governments and their approach to social policy in a period of crisis, assessing policy aims, policy implementation, and measurable outcomes."
