Sommario/riassunto |
|
The relationship between welfare and racial inequality has long been understood as a fight between liberal and conservative forces. The author challenges this basic assumption. She demonstrates that segregation was built into the very foundation of the welfare state |

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
because white policy makers shared an interest in preserving white race privilege. |
