Sommario/riassunto |
|
An analysis of the ideological fight for control of American social welfare policy, this book demonstrates how the Right pirated the pragmatism championed by the Left since the New Deal and what that means for the future of social policy. It illustrates how both the Right and the Left have shortchanged American social policy. |
