| Whakarāpopototanga: | "'Eighty years ago, New Zealand's welfare state was envied by many social reformers around the world. Today it stands in need of urgent repair and renewal'. One of our leading public policy thinkers asks: What might the contours of a revitalized 'social contract' for New Zealand look like?

Wide-ranging reform of the welfare state is needed, Boston argues, if we are to address the challenges presented by economic, social and technological upheaval.
