The Ends and Means of Welfare: Coping with Economic and Social Change in Australia by Peter Saunders (Cambridge University Press, 2002.)
Reminiscent of 1970s socialism, author Peter Saunders calls for tighter labour market regulation and an increase in welfare spending to reduce poverty and 'inequality', dismissing the merits of self-reliance through work as a moral end in itself.
