There is no more comprehensive and readable guide to the choices and conflicts of this global drama.

Central topics covered include:- poverty- rural development- urban development- education- health- social work- social welfare- international development and cooperation.Social Policy for Development is an essential text for all students and practitioners alike seeking a deeper understanding of the issues of poverty, social exclusion and deprivation across social policy and development studies internationally.
