The changes in social policy instituted by the government of New Zealand raise fundamental questions about the future of its welfare state. Important philosophical and ethical questions concerning the roles and responsibilities of individuals, families and the State are at stake. This book examines government policies in the key areas of income distribution, retirement income, health policy, housing policy, education policy and general macroeconomic strategy, and outlines alternative policies to create a just society.
