Summary: This book provides a green critique of the post-war history of the British welfare state, concentrating on the years from 1945 to 2010. In illuminating the principles, theoretical methods and analytical criteria which underpin that green critique, the book offers an alternative account of state-society relations. The evolution of social policies is central to the book's narrative and as such, it provides a solid grounding for debates relating to the greening of social policy internationally.
