AnnotationHoward Glennerster began lecturing on social policy a year after Paul Whiting did; he shares many of the same thoughts, though not necessarily the same pessimism about what has been achieved since the late 1960s. His response to Paul Whiting's article, 'Social policy: now and then' looks mainly at differences, for example people's disillusion with the State: to understand this, it is important to consider the history of the subject. However, he would agree that social policy now has a global perspective, given the subject's international comparative dimension. (RH).
