Right and the Welfare State

In "Right and the Welfare State," author Carsten Jensen explores the intricate dynamics of welfare state policies under conservative and liberal governments. Released in 2014 by Oxford University Press, this thought-provoking hardback spans 168 pages and challenges the prevailing notion that right-wing parties are merely welfare-sceptical opponents of the Left. Instead, Jensen offers a fresh perspective, revealing that the relationship between the right and welfare policies is far from straightforward. This engaging analysis is essential for anyone seeking to understand the complexities of modern governance and the ideological battles that shape our welfare state.
