After the Welfare State, by Ken Collier

Published by New Star Books in 1997, 200 pages. Paperback (S8295F)

From the rear side cover: Ken Collier draws upon the world-systems theory developed hy Fernand Braudel and lmmanuel Wal­lerstein to shed light on the welfare state and its apparent demise. The welfare state, Collier argues, greww up in the heyday of the nation-state to meet the needs of both capital and labour, The role of the state is changing, and the nation-state itself is headed for obsolescence, notions captured in the concept of "the end of the welfate state. But even in its aftermath, the welfare state's functions will still need to be carried out: and Collier reminds us that the traditional welfare state was fought for, and won, by workers themselves.The future will see new struggles in new contexts, but the key is to grasp the forces at work in the world that are bringing about the changes we are seeing. After the Welfare State makes some potent suggestions about where these struggles will be taking place...

The condition of the book is generally very good. The cover has some one or two minor scuffs, but the spine is intact, and all pages are clean, intact, unblemished and tightly bound.

When we post our books, we take great care in packaging them - first your book will be wrapped in bubblewrap, which protects the book and even keeps out any rain (in the event that it's raining when the postie delivers it!). Then we wrap your book in stiff cardboard, taking care to make sure all the corners are protected, and finally the package is wrapped in thick brown paper.
