About
"Culpitt explores the ways, in applying a philosophy of risk, that we might challenge the dominance of neo-liberal arguments in social policy. He argues that the organizing philosophy of neo-liberalism is based on a valorization of contract and risk. Drawing on Michel Foucault, he provides a critique of this neo-liberal perspective." "Social Policy and Risk makes a major contribution to our understanding of contemporary welfare politics. It will be essential reading for students and academics in social policy, politics, sociology and social work."--BOOK JACKET.
