Chapter Six began to look at broader perspectives on the cycle speech and Research Programme, through the outlook of social scientists. This part of the book takes this further, moving beyond the narrow canvas of the 1972-82 period, to look at the emergence of new interest in these themes since the early 1980s. If debates in the US were marked by an intellectual void following the Moynihan Report (Moynihan,1965), it is arguable that in Britain there was a similar void after the Research Programme. But gradually interest in policy, poverty, and parenting re-emerged to become a major plank of policy rhetoric. In Part Three, we link the cycle speech and Research Programme with New Labour policy since 1997. Chapter Seven traces the origins of the concept of social exclusion, attempts to operationalise it, some of the critiques that have been made, the literature on poverty dynamics, and the revival of agency. Chapter Eight explores policy developments including the approach of New Labour to child poverty and initiatives such as Sure Start, social exclusion, and antisocial behaviour, arguing that this has led to a revival of interest in transmitted deprivation.
