"Environmentalism is defining the politics of the twenty-first century. At the grassroots and at World Summits from Rio to Kyoto to Johannesburg, people are struggling with the social and economic implications of environmentalism. But where does social policy fit into the picture? As ecological problems multiply, and as welfare reform becomes more vital so the debate concerning Green social policies grows in importance." "What has been missing to date is a comprehensive review of the main questions, problems and themes that bring together the principal contributors to this debate. As a result, environmentalism has been slow to affect the social policy agenda. Academics are only now beginning to wrestle with the subject while the influence of Green ideas upon welfare reform is almost non-existent. Environment and Welfare provides that much-needed review and will be essential reading for all those interested in the welfare policies of the future."--Jacket.
