Do the British public believe ‘myths’ about the benefit system, or do they have a roughly accurate view about how it works? A new paper by Ben Baumberg Geiger, published in the journal Social Policy & Administration in August, looks at this question in detail – access the paper here.   Alternatively see the working paper from the LSE Centre for Analysis of Social Exclusion available here. Ben’s other numerous papers are available on his website with links to the web appendices and web tables – plus two of the datasets used in the Social Policy and Administration paper.
