Advising in Austerity: Reflections on Challenging Times for Advice Agencies

Editat de Samuel Kirwin
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 13 dec 2016
Citizens Advice is a network of UK philanthropic agencies that provide free, authoritative advice to the populace on a number of subjects ranging from financial matters to legal issues. In an era where austerity measures and cutbacks are as dominant as they are today, how should these advice agencies go about their business? How can and should they make do—and serve the public—with less funding, to say nothing of worries of further cuts in the future? This book brings together a team of expert contributors, many of whom have worked in advice agencies themselves, to help map out approaches and plans for advisors in these difficult times.

Recenzii

“A short, informative read that I would recommend to all students of social policy and social work.”

"Citizens Advice Bureaux operate at the meeting point between private troubles and public issues. By considering the challenges faced by advisors and their clients, this unique book offers a chastening insight into the realities of austerity and recent social policy."

"An excellent, empirically rich account of the key role played by advice agencies of different kinds in helping individuals to deal with the challenges of austerity."

"Bringing together vivid case studies and insightful commentary from front-line providers, Advising in Austerity is a very welcome addition to the literature on legal aid and advice."
