      This textbook discusses social policy meant to meet human needs, covering concepts, understandings, implications, and debates. It addresses the concept of humanity and the characteristics of the human species, the difference between "thin" and "thick" needs and needing, the differences between top-down and bottom-up approaches to need, and how dominant approaches manifest in different kinds of social policy intervention. The second part of th addresses debates about the disadvantages that occur when human needs go unmet and the concept of social disadvantage in terms of poverty and inequality, exclusion and misrecognition, and dehumanization; how needs-based approaches can be translated through rights-based approaches; and the politics of human need and the importance of a humanist needs-first ethic. Revised and updated, this edition addresses the shifting nature of welfare ideologies and regimes. It has been restructured to emphasize the essential nature of human need.
