This book discusses the ways in which work is understood and conceptualized in social policy and in relation to welfare. Particular attention is paid to New Labour discourses that make work the answer to social problems and construct the ideal citizen as a worker. The changing patterns of work, unemployment, hidden and informal work are highlighted with attention being paid to the increasing divide between work rich and work poor.
