Citizenship, Work and Welfare

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the evolution of citizenship in 19th and 20th-century Britain, this analysis explores the interplay between work and social responsibilities amid industrialization's challenges. It examines how citizenship rights have expanded from meeting basic needs to encompassing broader notions of social inclusion. The discussion culminates in the late 20th century, addressing the complexities of fulfilling citizenship entitlements amidst rising expectations, ongoing unemployment, and an ageing demographic.
