Lone Mothers and Policy Discourse in New Zealand
Lone mother families are seen as a major policy problem facing governments throughout the OECD. Responses to this problem in New Zealand, as in many other countries, are couched in terms of imposing work and training programmes to encourage exit from dependency on government financial support. This article uses ideas of 'needs talk' and discourse coalitions to explore the language of policy framing. Two periods in the development of the women's m…
Child Support: The Limits of Social Policy Based on Assumptions of Knavery Extending the Pillars of Social Policy Financing to Aged Care
Julian Le Grand has argued that a key component of welfare reform involves changes in the assumptions about human behaviour which are embedded in social policies. Policy assumptions have been transformed from espousing a belief that social service providers act as well‐intentioned knights and recipients as passive pawns, to a stance in which all participants are regarded as self‐seeking knaves. These ideas are particularly pertinent to policy dev…

This paper profiles the 1974 introduction of a new system for compensating individuals who suffer accidental injuries in New Zealand. It reviews the development of this scheme through the late 1980s and highlights the increase of political pressures for subsequent reform.

The Welfare Exchange Reconsidered

The welfare exchange was the focus of much discussion in the early 1970s stemming from the writings of Titmuss, Pinker and Pruger, and this article starts with a review of that debate. In searching for a more adequate theoretical framework it argues that Gouldner's work on reciprocity, beneficence and complementarity provides that framewo…
