The Condition of Britain: Strategies for social renewal
Article
This landmark report argues for a new approach to politics and public action driven by the goals of spreading power, fostering contribution and strengthening shared institutions. Covering a wide range of policy issues, it makes proposals for reshaping the systems of support for families, young people, older people and those facing deep exclusion from society, while also setting out reforms to social security, employment support and housing policy. The agenda laid out here is ambitious and optimistic, rooted in today's challenges while learning the lessons of the past.
