Global capital, human needs and social policies: selected essays 1994-99
Gough, I.
(2000).
Global capital, human needs and social policies: selected essays 1994-99.
Palgrave Macmillan.
Can the needs of capital ever be reconciled with the needs of people? To what extent can social policies bridge the gap between social rights and human welfare and economic competitiveness in a global world? Building on his previous writings on political economy and human need, Ian Gough throws new light on these perennial questions in a series of penetrating and original essays. The conclusion is upbeat: social policy still has the potential to narrow (though never close) the gap between the drive of capital and the universal needs of people.
