Synopsis

This book provides a critical account of British social policy since 1945 from the perspective of the child. Using the UN convention on the Rights of the Child as a yardstick, it examines a wide range of policy areas including health, education, housing, social security, child care and protection. It concludes with suggestions for making policy more child-centred. It will be of interest to a wide range of professionals and to anyone who is concerned with children's welfare.
