Hilary Cooper and Simon Szreter reveal the deep roots of our vulnerability and set out a powerful manifesto for change post-Covid-19. They argue that our commitment to a flawed neoliberal model and the associated disinvestment in our social fabric left the UK dangerously exposed and unable to mount an effective response. This is not at all what made Britain great. The long history of the highly innovative universal welfare system established by Elizabeth I facilitated both the industrial revolution and, when revived after 1945, the postwar Golden Age of rising prosperity. Only by learning from that past can we create the fairer, nurturing and empowering society necessary to tackle the global challenges that lie ahead - climate change, biodiversity collapse and global inequality. 505 0 $a COVID-19 Was always a matter of 'When' Not 'If' -- Why COVID-19 Was a perfect storm -- How COVID-19 Challenges us to change -- After the virus: Who do we want to be? 650 0 $a Social change $z Great Britain. 650 0 $a COVID-19 Pandemic, 2020- $x Economic aspects $z Great Britain. 650 0 $a COVID-19 Pandemic, 2020- $x Social aspects $z Great Britain. 651 0 $a Great Britain $x Social conditions $y 1945- 650 6 $a PandeÌmie de COVID-19, 2020- $x Aspect eÌconomique $z Grande-Bretagne. 650 6 $a PandeÌmie de COVID-19, 2020- $x Aspect social $z Grande-Bretagne. 651 6 $a Grande-Bretagne $x Conditions sociales $y 1945- 650 7 $a Economics. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00902116 650 7 $a Social aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01354981 650 7 $a Social change. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01122310 650 7 $a Social conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919811 651 7 $a Great Britain. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204623 648 7 $a Since 1945 $2 fast 700 1 $a Szreter, Simon, $e author. 776 08 $i Ebook version : $z 9781009041775 941 $a 1 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718100316.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E82FB9D0214711EEBC7340321FECA4DB 994 $a 92 $b IOHInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
