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 UR - https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/orpp/detail.action?docID=4825185 ER -
