"""Provides an important contribution to knowledge and debate in social policy as well as a helpful review of the labyrinthine literature on social attitudes"" Professor Hartley Dean, London School of Economics. ""An extremely useful longitudinal analysis of public attitudes to social policy since the 1980s, placing New Zealand in a wider context of other liberal market economies: theoretically and empirically rich, and well worth attention"" Jack Vowles, Victoria University of Wellington. ""This ambitious and richly detailed book asks a crucial question: has neoliberal policy changed the public's mind about neoliberalism? Humpage's carefully argued answer-essentially, 'yes, but'-is both sobering and comforting."" Professor Gabrielle Meagher, University of Sydney."
