For most of the past fifty years democratic governments made determined and successful efforts at overcoming the significant inequalities that are the by-product of a capitalist economy. During this period a new concept of democratic citizenship that added social and economic rights to the liberal legacy of political and civil liberties established roots in most North Atlantic democracies. Since the 1980s this notion of democratic citizenship has been challenged ideologically to such a degree that through either major modification or complete elimination of programs, equality as a fundamental democratic goal is disappearing in many nations - particularly in the Anglo-American democracies.In this extraordinary collection, top scholars in political science, sociology, philosophy and economics, discuss this radical shift towards inequality in an age of mass capital globalization. Wide ranging in topic yet coherent in approach, Inequality and the Modern Democratic State comprises thirteen essays, including Ed Broadbent's "Ten Propositions about Equality and Democracy", Robert Hackett's "Watch Dogs, Mad Dogs, or Lap Dogs?: News Media and Civic Equality" and Barbara Ehrenreich's "Inequality in the Clinton Era". Many European democracies, argue the contributors, have adapted to new circumstance in the global economy without resorting to policies that actively promote inequality. While differing in some important details on solutions, they all contend that the political decision-making process is of critical importance in entrenching, or battling, an escalating inequality that is neither necessary nor desirable.EqualityDemocracyWelfare stateElectronic books.Equality.Democracy.Welfare state.323Broadbent Ed1936-MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910455842003321Democratic equality2456019UNINA01496oam 2200469 450 991070541800332120171219113207.0(CKB)5470000002451210(OCoLC)1015898187(EXLCZ)99547000000245121020171219d2017 ua 0engurcn|||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierConservation choices, soil health practicesDes Moines, Iowa :United States Department of Agriculture, Natural Resources Conservation Service,[2017]1 online resource (4 unnumbered pages) color illustrations"April 2017"--Page 4.Soil health practicesSoil conservationUnited StatesSoilsQualityUnited StatesLand use, RuralUnited StatesLand use, RuralfastSoil conservationfastSoilsQualityfastUnited StatesfastSoil conservationSoilsQualityLand use, RuralLand use, Rural.Soil conservation.SoilsQuality.United States.Natural Resources Conservation Service,GPOGPOGPOBOOK9910705418003321Conservation choices, soil health practices3304350UNINA
