"There is no such thing as society," Margaret Thatcher famously said - a sentiment mirrored across the Atlantic by the American right`s mantra that "œgovernment is the problem." Regardless of whether we agree on these sentiments or not, they have serious consequences, and Beyond Caring shows some of those consequences. It is very interesting that there was so much interesting photography coming out of Britain as a result of its massive economic problems. There might have been a lot of people who did not care, but people like Paul Graham did care. He didn`t get official permission to take photographs in unemployment offices, so he went in anyway, with a camera at hip level or placed on a bench or chair.
