Social Administration And The Citizen

Social Administration and the Citizen (1966) by Kathleen M. Slack – Michael Joseph
Sold with begrudging pride by Crappy Old Books – making bureaucracy sexy since never.

Kathleen M. Slack’s Social Administration and the Citizen is a crisply argued, quietly radical look at how post-war Britain tried to stitch together a welfare state without dropping too many stitches. Published in 1966, it explores the tangled relationships between public services, government institutions, and the people they’re meant to serve—or pacify.

Ideal for fans of civic responsibility, dusty lecture halls, or anyone who enjoys charts about council services, this is mid-century social policy in all its sober glory. Our copy? Slightly foxed, mildly annotated, and carrying the ghost of a thousand committee meetings.

Hardbak with dust jacket. Clean and strong binding but wear signs of wear. Has a couple of pages with sentences underlined, but I only saw 2-3, not many. Page quality generally very good.
