Summary

This original book makes a timely-and potentially controversial-contribution to social policy debates in Britain, Europe, and North America. Drawing on a critical overview of the role religious values, actors, and institutions have on social programs, Rana Jawad examines the workings of religious welfare organizations from the world's major faiths. Bringing a host of perspectives together, she argues for an analytical shift in the definition of well-being through a concept she calls "ways of being," which, she argues, better reflects the moral, ideological, and cultural underpinnings of social welfare.
