Who choosing what? The evolution of the use of ‘choice’ in the NHS, and its importance for New Labour

Abstract

Social Policy Review 15 continues the tradition of this annual review by providing a different style and approach to policy issues from that found in most academic journals and books. It combines issues such as globalization, Europe, and pensions with examination of the current and historical contexts of social policy. Chapters have been purposely commissioned to review a varied and interesting selection of topical social policy developments and to set these in a broader context of key trends and debates.
