Abstract
Various configurations ofpolitical inclusiveness have emerged since self-government began in the West nearly two centuries ago, associated with the changing roles of the liberal state and its responsibility for welfare. By the twenty first cintury, latter twentieth century collectivist political practices have been challenged' by new forms of governance associated with neo-liberalism. Individualisation and marketisation are key elements to the new state governance rationale of 'steering, not rowing '. Accordingly, public sector welfare provision is being reconstituted as the domain of the individual and as an individualised political practice premised on ' '.freedom of choice' of the individual.
