Jean Edelstein

Public Policy Review, 2007, vol. 14, issue 4, 248-251

Abstract: Gordon Brown has claimed that encouraging individual aspiration is a key goal of his Government. But what does that mean? Here Jean Edelstein argues that, in a world in which achievement is measured largely in terms of acquisition and consumer culture, Brown's agenda needs to be rethought.
