The Welfare Debate

Více o knize

The book delves into the complex history of welfare politics in America, examining the ongoing debate over the causes of poverty—whether they stem from individual failings or systemic issues. It highlights the lack of consensus in political and philosophical discussions surrounding welfare and the implications of this stalemate on public policy. Author Greg M. Shaw offers a critical analysis of the 1996 welfare reform act, exploring its impact and the broader consequences of the persistent divide in understanding poverty.
