This paper develops a typology of welfare services and attempts to illustrate its use in clarifying discussions about the privatisation of welfare and in analysing changes in expenditure. A third dimension, which concerns the extent of the consumer's decision-making power and turns on the question of agency and exit, is added to the now familiar dimensions of provision and finance. This third dimension is found to have been increasingly important in policy terms, as attempts have been made to reduce the role of the 'pure public' sector. The assisted-places scheme, NHS glasses vouchers, and tax relief on pension contributions are all examples of policies which sought to promote consumer decision-making. However despite the policy interest in moving from public to private decision, the second half of the paper shows that the impact in terms of changes in patterns of welfare expenditure since 1979/80 has been small. The overall picture is one of continuing importance of the publicly provided, financed and decided sector, accounting for just over half of all welfare expenditure in 1979/80 and just under half in 1995/96.

As the state withdraws from welfare provision, the mixed economy of welfare – involving private, voluntary and informal sectors – has become ever more important. This second edition of Powell’s acclaimed textbook on the subject brings together a wealth of respected contributors. New features of this revised edition include: • An updated perspective on the mixed economy of welfare (MEW) and social division of welfare (SDW) in the context of UK Coalition and Conservative governments • A conceptual framework that links the MEW and SDW with debates on topics of major current interest such as ‘Open Public Services’, ‘Big Society’, Any Qualified Provider’, Private Finance Initiative (PFI) and ‘Public Private Partnerships’ (PPP) Containing helpful features such as summaries, questions for discussion, further reading suggestions and electronic resources, this will be a valuable introductory resource for students of social policy, social welfare and social work at both undergraduate and postgraduate level.

Although state provision may have dominated in Britain since 1945, there is a movement towards welfare pluralism - a mixed economy of welfare - involving private, voluntary & informal sectors. This book sheds light on this area of social policy. It shows how the mixed economy of welfare links with important conceptual & policy debates.

Same time, the glaring systemic deficiencies of extant welfare systems-and the psychological toll of welfare dependency--became increasingly apparent, even to welfare's supporters.
