No one is content with the state of health and social programs in Canada today. The Right thinks that there is too much government involvement, and the Left thinks there is not enough. In Changing Politics of Canadian Social Policy James Rice and Michael Prince track the history of the welfare state from its establishment in the 1940s, through its development in the mid 1970s, to the period of deficit crisis and restraint that followed in the late 1970s and 1980s.Taking a historical perspective, the authors grapple with the politics of social policy in the 1990s. Globalization and the concomitant corporate mobility affect governments ability to regulate the distribution of wealth, while the increasing diversity of the population puts increasingly complex demands on an already overstressed system.Yet in the face of these constraints, the system still endures and is far from irrelevant. Some social programs have been dismantled, but the government has organized and maintained others. Greater democratization of welfare programs and social policy agencies could make the system thrive again. Changing Politics provides the muchneeded groundwork for students and policy makers while also proposing real solutions for the future.

Unfortunately, my copy arrived with some pages creased and a bit torn. I was really looking forward to diving into it, but the physical condition put a damper on my excitement. Hoping to get a replacement soon!

Decent Overview, But Not What I Expected
I thought this book would focus more on current issues, but it spends a lot of time on historical context. It’s well written, just not quite what I was looking for. Still, I learned quite a bit!

Good, but Slightly Dense
I found the content really informative, but some chapters felt a bit heavy on jargon. It’s a solid read for anyone interested in Canadian politics, just be prepared to take notes!
