Conclusions: Policy Implications --$tBIBLIOGRAPHY --$tINDEX 330 $aWounded soldiers, injured workers, adults with disabilities, and physically impaired children have all been affected by legislation that reduces their opportunities to live a functional life. In Disability as a Social Construct, Claire Liachowitz contends that disability is not merely a result of a handicap but can be imposed by society through devaluation and segregation of people who deviate from physical norms. She analyzes pertinent American legislation, primarily from 1770 to 1920, to provide a new perspective on the mechanisms that translate physical defects into social and civil inferiority. 606 $aSociological jurisprudence 606 $aPeople with disabilities$zUnited States$xHistory 606 $aPeople with disabilities$xLegal status, laws, etc$zUnited States$xHistory 615 0$aSociological jurisprudence. 615 0$aPeople with disabilities$xHistory. 615 0$aPeople with disabilities$xLegal status, laws, etc.$xHistory. 676 $a346.73013 700 $aLiachowitz$b Claire H.$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01811134 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910962588703321 996 $aDisability as a Social Construct$94362808 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03602nam 22005655 450 001 9910158659003321 005 20250609110057.0 010 $a9781137597502 010 $a113759750X 024 7 $a10.1057/978-1-137-59750-2 035 $a(CKB)3710000001009906 035 $a(DE-He213)978-1-137-59750-2 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4777098 035 $a(Perlego)3508318 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6241582 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000001009906 100 $a20170105d2017 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn#008mamaa 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 14$aThe Global Financial Crisis in Retrospect $eEvolution, Resolution, and Lessons for Prevention /$fby Anthony Elson 205 $a1st ed. 2017. 210 1$aNew York :$cPalgrave Macmillan US :$cImprint: Palgrave Macmillan,$d2017. 215 $a1 online resource (XV, 255 p. 12 illus. in color.) 311 08$a9781137597496 311 08$a1137597496 327 $a1.

Conclusions and Lessons for the Future. 330 $aThis book provides a uniquely comprehensive explanation of the 2008-2009 global financial crisis and resulting scholarly research in the context of building an agenda for reform. With the clarity provided by almost a decade of hindsight and a careful eye toward planning for prevention, Elson guides readers through both historical fact and scholarly interpretation, highlighting areas where careful critique of and changes in the international financial architecture and the mainstream macroeconomic paradigm can promote greater financial stability in the future. Given the great public concern over growing income and wealth inequality, the book examines their links to the increased financialization of the economy, both prior to and since the crisis. Finally, the book identifies a number of lessons that need to be recognized if adequate and effective reforms are to be introduced to avoid a financial crisis of similar magnitude in the future. Comprehensive enough for university students and sufficiently innovative for financial policymakers, this book will appeal to a wide range of readers interested in understanding not just where the crisis has brought us, but what key economists have said about it and how we can strengthen our financial system oversight to deal with the continuing challenges of globalization. 606 $aFinance 606 $aHistory 606 $aMacroeconomics 606 $aEconomic history 606 $aFinancial History 606 $aMacroeconomics and Monetary Economics 606 $aEconomic History 615 0$aFinance. 615 0$aHistory. 615 0$aMacroeconomics. 615 0$aEconomic history. 615 14$aFinancial History. 615 24$aMacroeconomics and Monetary Economics. 615 24$aEconomic History. 676 $a332.09 700 $aElson$b Anthony$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0848317 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910158659003321 996 $aThe Global Financial Crisis in Retrospect$92214307 997 $aUNINA
