Описание: Who are those at the bottom of society? There has been much discussion in recent years, on both Left and Right, about the existence of an alleged 'underclass' in both Britain and the USA. It has been claimed this group lives outside the mainstream of society, is characterised by crime, suffers from long-term unemployment and single parenthood, and is alienated from its core values. John Welshman shows that there have always been concerns about an 'underclass', whether constructed as the 'social residuum' of the 1880s, the 'problem family' of the 1950s or the 'cycle of deprivation' of the 1970s. There are marked differences between these concepts, but also striking continuities. Indeed a concern with an 'underclass' has in many ways existed as long as an interest in poverty itself. This book is the first to look systematically at the question, providing new insights into contemporary debates about behaviour, poverty and welfare reform. This new edition of the pioneering text has been updated throughout and includes brand new chapters on 'Problem Families' and New Labour as well as 'Troubled Families' and the Coalition Government. It is a seminal work for anyone interested in the social history of Britain and the Welfare State.

Описание:
And just like that, things are back to normal, almost as if nothing had happened. Cassius is dead, Rifun has fled, the Hands of Time are back in control, and all seems well. While everything is back to normal, nothing is the same. With the Akarin revealing themselves in what is perceived as an Akari-bearer civil war against the Cult of the Akari, the survivors of the Zero Hour Revolution want blood, and they don't care whose it is.
As if that's not bad enough, the Borelians are no pushovers when it comes to slights and broken contracts, and they issue an official declaration of war against humanity. In the midst of all of this, Tommen has problems of his own as he is forcibly ousted from his position as manager of the bakery. Angry, he signs up to be a counselor at a summer camp for troubled children. Problem is, the counselor he is assisting is more troubled than the children. Worse, he is also Tommen's new mentor when it comes to his new Akari training-something Rifun does not take kindly to.
More players take the field, knowing that the Zero Hour Revolution was but one battle in what could be a very long war.

Описание:
The Time industry has fallen, the Hands of Time have been overthrown, Walter and Micaiah have been captured, and Rifun and Cassius rule.
Dark times have come to the universe and a shadow of fear and uncertainty blankets the survivors, Tommen and Micah included. They know it's only a matter of time before Rifun and Cassius begin to mop up, and they're prime targets, especially when the hounds of war are sent out to track down those who escaped the coup.
With the chain of command decimated and more questions than answers, the survivors can only rely on themselves and each other, and not always reliably. Their only hope to take back the Wheel of Time may come from an unlikely band of mystics, enemies of both Time and the Cult, but wielding unbelievable power, not only in Time, but Matter and Energy as well.
It's a game of blind man's bluff as the survivors work to become the victors, as long as they don't kill each other first.
Описание: The book is the only book-length treatment of New Labour`s approach to child poverty, and examines initiatives such as Sure Start, the influence of research on inter-generational continuities, and its new stance on social exclusion.
