Focusing on the evolution of Australia's welfare regime from the late 19th century to the mid-20th century, the narrative explores the historical choices that shaped its development. It examines the pre-history of welfare in Australia, detailing the transition from a social laboratory in the early 1900s to a 'welfare laggard' by the mid-20th century. The book highlights how past decisions continue to influence contemporary welfare policies and the possibilities for future reforms.
