Synopsis: An authoritative analysis of the Blair government's record in tackling child and family poverty from 1997-2001. Distinguished contributors from various fields explore the success (or otherwise) of policy measures implemented by Labour. They look past the headlines to assess what real progress was made in this period towards Labour's aim of abolishing child poverty within 20 years. The authors examine the Government's performance in a number of policy areas relating to different aspects of poverty: * employment; * health; * neighbourhood renewal; * education; * housing; * the racial dimension. The book also looks at the future of children's benefits, and sets out what further anti-poverty policies need to be implemented by future governments. It will be of interest to academics, students and policymakers, politicians and social activists, and anyone with an interest in the abolition of child poverty.
