Reviews

A valuable and original contribution to the limited comparative literature on Eastern welfare systems. Academics, students and practitioners working within international agencies should read this book to gain a better understanding of the ways in which welfare needs are met in societies with varying histories and ideologies. Adrian Sinfield, School of Social and Political Studies, University of Edinburgh
