“Social Welfare Policy: Responding to a Changing World, 2nd Edition” offers a timely and thorough overview of social welfare policy. This engaging text book adopts a modern framework that takes into account three transformative forces reshaping the social policy landscape: the emergence of the information economy, the expansion of globalization, and the pressing environmental crisis we face today. This framework is applied to six key policy areas—child and family services, health and mental health, poverty and inequality, housing and community development, crime and violence, and aging—while also addressing solutions to both longstanding and emerging challenges. Authored by John McNutt and Richard Hoefer, this introductory text represents a significant advancement in social welfare policy thought, grounded in the latest research. It urges students to recognize that the creation of future social policies must begin now.
