Barrett, David. Older People, Poverty and Community Care Under the Tories
Avebury 1993 1856284034 / 9781856284035 Hardback New Laminated 410g
This study investigates whether community care policy and service delivery is rhetoric or reality. The social policy and under-pinning ideologies that surround community care are reviewed. The qualitative research gives detailed descriptions of everyday life, including the concerns of economic and political influences. From the data the concept of "economic fragility" was developed. Similar patterns of experience emerged for some groups of respondents, these included connections with "pervasive economics", gender and the semiotic of language. Further analysis highlighted conceptual connections at both a micro and macro theoretical level. This includes marginalization processes for certain groups of older people into becoming "problem" populations. Identification of a predictable career path for the "Economically Fragile" takes place. This culminates in personal experimential journeys through the Social Incarceration Spiral. Theoretical considerations are explored and some alternative policy proposals are made. Finally, it is argued that Community Care as an ideology, current policy and service, as propounded by the current Government, is seriously flawed.
