Stigma in the context of welfare and austerity capitalism has been the subject of sustained analysis in recent years, much of which will have been reflected in this themed section. We will not reiterate all sources drawn upon here. Instead, we identify what we feel are key texts and resources ranging from the historical and foundational to more recent contributions. In keeping with the overall approach of this themed section, contributions are drawn, in the main, from both Ireland and the UK. The chosen sources broadly cover scholarship that is both adjacent to and directly encapsulates the theme of stigma in the context welfare.
