This book offers a searching intellectual analysis of social welfare over the last two centuries of dramatic change and development. The late Geoffrey Finlayson explores the changing relations between voluntarism and the state, unravelling the complex interactions of government, commerce, and individuals. Additionally, he examines the concept of citizenship, tracing developing notions of the duties and obligations implicit in the idea of the citizen, as well as the rights and entitlements.
