330 .. $a This collection of twelve essays reviews the history of welfare in Britain over the
past 150 years. It focuses on the ideas that have shaped the development of British
social policy, and on the thinkers who have inspired and also contested the welfare
state. It thereby constructs an intellectual history of British welfare since the
concept first emerged at the end of the nineteenth century.0The essays divide into
four sections. The first considers the transition from laissez-faire to social liberalism
from the 1870s, and the enduring impact of late-Victorian philosophical idealism on
the development of the welfare state. It focuses on the moral philosophy of T. H.
Green and his influence on key figures in the history of British social policy like
William Beveridge, R. H. Tawney, and William Temple. The second section is devoted
to the concept of 'planning' which was once, in the mid-twentieth century, at the
heart of social policy and its implementation, but which has subsequently fallen out
of favour. A third section examines the intellectual debate over the welfare state
since its creation in the 1940s. Though a consensus seemed to have emerged during
the Second World War over the desirability and scope of a welfare state extending
'from the cradle to the grave', libertarian and conservative critiques endured and
re-emerged a generation later. A final section examines social policy and its implementation
more recently, both at grass roots level in a study of community action in West London
in the districts made infamous by the fire at Grenfell Tower in 2017, and at a systemic
level where different models of welfare provision are shown to be in uneasy co-existence
today.The collection is a tribute to Jose Harris, emeritus professor of history in
the University of Oxford and a pioneer of the intellectual history of social policy.
Taken together, these essays conduct the reader through the key phases and debates
in the history of British welfare
