The restructuring of the welfare state in the UK has marked a significant change in the way contemporary society is ordered and understood. This research monograph explores the implications of this restructuring for women and their attachments to unpaid care, paid work and activism over time.

Immersive and critical, the account provides valuable insights for our understanding of welfare restructuring and the future development of the welfare state.
