Remaking Community?: New Labour and the Governance of Poor Neighbourhoods (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781138251540)

Remaking Community addresses the interlinking uses of community in government rhetoric and policy. It explores why the concept of communities became so central to the New Labour governing project that aspired to broker a new form of citizenship based on reciprocity and individual responsibility. Andrew Wallace identifies and discusses how this social vision manifested in a 'politics of membership' and influenced New Labour's distinctive welfare reform agenda.
