Global Social Policy examines trends in global inequity and summarizes the diverse experiences of different welfare regimes across the world. The authors review the social policies of international organizations such as the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, UN Agencies and the European Union, and show them to be engaged in heated controversy regarding the future for welfare. They argue that this concealed global discourse needs to be brought into an accountable arena.

`This book is very timely and addresses many issues that are en vogue at the moment. It relates social policy studies to other fields such as global governance and development studies and thus opens up new discussions in the subject area' - Dr Antje Vetterlein, University of Oxford

"evaluates national social policies advanced by international organisations.
"examines policies addressing global social redistribution, regulation and rights.
"highlights the roles of global actors, including INGOs, consultants, think tanks, task forces and global policy advocacy coalitions.
"explores the political obstacles to reforms in global social governance,
"outlines the growing importance of global social movements.
"presents arguments for more effective global and regional social policies.
"is illustrated by case studies, further reading sections and a glossary.
Global Social Policy and Governance will be an essential text for students of social policy, development studies and international relations. It will also be invaluable reading for those shaping social policies in international organisations and those in social movements seeking to influence them.
