“THE intellectual and political dominance of liberal ideas in the United States and Britain is incontestable.”
This study considers examples of social policy in Britain and the US that conflict with liberal democratic ideals. It looks at the eugenic arguments in the 1920/30s, the use of work camps in the 1930s and work-for-welfare programmes since the 1980s. by Desmond King
