| Annotation | The relationship between the citizen and the state is generally weighted in the state's favour, and is most apparent in the receipt of services provided by the state. Although implementation of direct payments and related legislation has redressed this imbalance to some extent for people with disabilities, older people's uptake of direct payments has been low. This article provides a general view of changes in the relationship between the state and the citizen from the 1920s to the 1980s. The author suggests that the social worker's role will be that of an educator or provider of information who advises on what services might be available. (RH). |
