This book assesses the impact of the Thatcher and Major administrations upon the form and style of local authority service delivery. It takes as its starting point the challenge to the post-war consensus on welfare and highlights the influence of radical Conservatism in shaping patterns of policy, post-1987. The book examines far-reaching reforms in four key areas: education, housing, competitive tendering and social services.Focusing upon policy development and the implementation process, the author shows how local authorities across Britain responded to the imposition of this new style of public management. Competition, consumer empowerment and choice displaced them from their former monopolistic position, creating a new regime of 'welfare pluralism'. Yet, despite the intense conflict which these changes originally induced, Nirmala Rao argues that the emerging consensus which we now witness signifies the triumph of the new public management.

HauptbeschreibungWelfare pluralism is often seen as a possible solution to the welfare crisis many western countries are experiencing. Alternative sources of welfare provisions have become attractive in systems once dominated by the state. The family, the company and voluntary organizations can provide services where the state has left a gap. There are, however, several grounds for scepticism about the benefits of welfare pluralism. There is sometimes a general fear of privatization of public commitments and concerns about quality and equal treatment of all citizens. This book serves a handy presentation of the problem and developments and offers a critical discussion of the concept and ideas of welfare pluralism. In a comprehensive comparative empirical analysis, the road to welfare pluralism is studied in three different kinds of western European welfare states - Sweden, Germany and Britain. From official documents and public statements made by centrally placed policy makers, we can see how welfare pluralism is motivated, supported and organized. With the obvious different experiences and policies of the three countries, the study still discerns some common patterns in the way Sweden, Germany and Britain cope with the challenges of the welfare state and of welfare pluralism.

Robert Pinker has written extensively on social policy matters since the early 1960s. His distinct approach to understanding concepts such as welfare pluralism is of particular relevance today as welfare pluralism remains an essential component of the policy mix, giving people access to a greater range and diversity of statutory, voluntary, and private sector services than unitary models of welfare provide. Social Policy and Welfare Pluralism presents the first collection of Robert Pinker’s essays in one edited volume. It includes essays on the ways in which welfare theories and ideologies and public expectations have influenced and shaped the political processes of policy making. Other essays focus on clarifying some of the key concepts that underpin the study of social policy. Pinker also reviews the extent to which the United Kingdom has succeeded in creating a ‘policy mix’ in which normative compromises are negotiated between the claims of market individualism and public sector collectivism. The concluding chapter by Robert Pinker reviews the prospects for social policy in the UK over the next five years.
