The Beveridge Plan
Stewart, Maxwell S. | January 30, 1943 issue

add to cart   close window

This article focuses on the book "Social Insurance and Allied Services," by William Beveridge. Readers who approach William Beveridge's celebrated report with the expectation of finding a convenient blueprint of the post-war world are doomed to disappointment. Contrary to a rather widespread impression, the report is confined solely to the problem of social insurance. It does not stray into the larger aspects of post-war planning. Furthermore, it is quite apparent that William was interested primarily in the mechanics of unifying and strengthening Great Britain's social-insurance system and little concerned with elucidating his plan for a U.S. audience.
