Product Description
Product Description
In this book respected think tanks from the left, centre and right of the political spectrum outline how they think poverty in Britain should be tackled in the next 20 years. Overcoming disadvantage is a considered response to Tackling disadvantage: A 20-year enterprise (2003, ISBN 1 85935 091 7), which set out the problems facing this country over the next two decades. Containing innovative and new ideas from key thinkers, and challenging and thought-provoking solutions to the problems we face, this study will be of interest to a wide audience. Published to mark the start of the Joseph Rowntree Foundation's centenary year, the report has been written by five established think tanks which cover a spectrum of independent, political thinking in the UK: The IPPR aims to be a force for change by delivering far-reaching and realistic policy solutions to produce a fairer, more inclusive and more environmentally sustainable world. The Institute of Welsh Affairs is an independent think-tank, which acts as a bridge between public policy makers, the academic community, business and non-profit organisations. The Scottish Councils Foundation develops leading edge thinking and world class practice to address the strategic challenges facing Scotland and other modern economies and societies in an age of complexity and rapid change. The Policy Exchange aims to develop fresh ideas in support of strong communities in a free society. The Social Market Foundation explores ideas that link the state and the market to create the just, free and prosperous Britain of tomorrow.
