William Beveridge's report on Social insurance and allied services has often been described as a ‘blueprint’ for the creation of Britain's post-war welfare state. However, it was only one of three major reports which Beveridge produced during the 1940s. This paper looks at all three reports and places them in the context of Beveridge's other writings and developments in the history of British social policy. It explores the different ways in which Beveridge's ideas about the importance of individual liberty, the role of state intervention and the different forms of voluntary action intersected during this period.

社会保障、充分就业和自愿行动：威廉·贝弗里奇福利社会的三大支柱

威廉·贝弗里奇关于社会保险和相关服务的报告经常被描述为创建英国战后福利国家的“蓝图”。然而，这只是贝弗里奇在 1940 年代制作的三份主要报告之一。本文着眼于所有三份报告，并将它们置于贝弗里奇的其他著作和英国社会政策历史发展的背景下。它探讨了贝弗里奇关于个人自由的重要性、国家干预的作用以及不同形式的自愿行动在这一时期相互交叉的不同方式。
