This edited collection considers how conditional welfare policies and services are implemented and experienced by a diverse range of welfare service users across a range of UK policy domains including social security, homelessness, migration and criminal justice.

This book showcases the insights and findings of a series of distinct, independent studies undertaken by early career researchers associated with the ESRC funded Welfare Conditionality project. Each chapter presents a new empirical analysis of data generated in fieldwork conducted with practitioners charged with interpreting and delivering policy and welfare service users who are at the sharp end of welfare services shaped by behavioural conditionality.

Peter Dwyer is Professor of Social Policy at the University of York, UK. His research and teaching focuses on social citizenship. He led the large ESRC fundedWelfare Conditionality:Sanctions Support and Behaviour Change (2013-2018) project.
