- Summary:
-
"In this powerful essay, Professor Paul Smyth one of Australia's leading social policy experts argues that it is high time Australia embarked on a period of nation building in the 'Australian Way'. Our welfare system, he says, is out of date and we are sorely in need of a new social policy architecture to shape the nation. From this perspective Paul Smyth develops an argument for a radical policy renewal to reshape and integrate the economic and social policies of government. He argues that by linking the concepts of social inclusion and social investment we can reduce the impact of disadvantage for the benefit of all Australians."--From the Australian National Collaboration website at http://www.australiancollaboration.com.au/booksreports/index.html.
