First published in 1985, Capitalism and Public Policy in the UK offers a comprehensive exploration of the evolution, current nature, and profound effects of public policy in the United Kingdom. This insightful work establishes a strong connection between public policy and the distinctive characteristics of capitalism, class dynamics, and the state. The book commences with an introductory chapter that establishes the theoretical framework that guides the entire work. This framework posits that public policy is profoundly shaped by the demands of the capitalist mode of production, the interplay of class forces, historical influences, gender disparities, and international relations.
Subsequent chapters delve into specific policy areas, presenting relevant theoretical concepts before providing a historical account of policy development, with a particular focus on the post-1945 period. Where appropriate, the book examines the impact of these policies on inequalities of class, gender, race, and age. Finally, it assesses the overall impact of each policy area and the state on economic change, class relations, and other social divisions. This comprehensive text is of immense interest to scholars and researchers engaged in the study of the state, public policy, and political economy, broadly.
