SAMPLE
註釋
This accessible reader brings together a selection of highly influencial writings by academic and writer Daniel Dorling which looks at inequality and social justice, what they are and why they matter. Encompassing an extensive range of print and online media - including newspaper articles, previously unpublished work and several key academic publications - Fair Play provides a wealth of evidence that Britain is becoming more politically, socially and economically divided whilst coming together in terms of educational outcomes, reduced segregation by ethnicity and a growing sense that the country is currently travelling in the wrong direction. Cuts to benefits for many of the poorest people in Britain during 2011 coupled with falling average incomes in real terms, but simultaneous rapid rises in income and wealth of many at the top of British society, have lead to a great renewal of a sense of unfairness in Britain. This book charts the rise in that sense and many of the solutions that are suggested to ensure fair play.
