The Public Good

Maureen Macintosh (guest editor)

Soundings 4 coverThe public sector, in its organisation and definition, is an expression of a particular social settlement, which, in the UK, is currently being reconstituted. Choices are now being made which will influence both public and private sectors - and their intimate relationship with each other - well into the next century. This issue examines the nature of such choices, and takes a comparative look at other societies in transition.
