Jane Franklin is a Research Fellow at South Bank University and an Associate of the Institute for Public Policy Research. Previously a Research Fellow at IPPR from 1994 to 1997, her recent publications include Equality (IPPR, 1997) and The Politics of Risk Society (Polity Press, 1998).

"A valuable collection from IPPR for both students and the general reader interested in contemporary debates about social justice, citizenship and alternative approaches to welfare, issues which are of central political importance today." Ruth Lister, Professor of Social Policy, Loughborough University"Think-tanks are the wellsprings of knowledge, research and new ideas on which all political parties draw. Reading through this stimulating collection, there is no doubt that New Labour, recreating itself over the last few years, has drawn richly on ideas that sprang first from IPPR. Indeed in much of this book, you will find the key intellectual grounding of this Government." Polly Toynbee
