Editorial Reviews

Review

"This is an impressive volume. It is filled with original insights on recent federal policies on domestic issues. I can think of no work that sheds more light on why the conservative political movement was able to seep through the Clinton administration and influence its economic and social policies." William Julius Wilson, Malcolm Wiener Professor of Social Policy, John F. Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University

"Not just during the Reagan and Bush presidencies, but under Clinton's, social policy has veered rightwards. This excellent collection of smart, sassy, analytically-grounded essays by a first-rate group of scholars offers detailed policy analyses--spanning issues of race, the welfare state, sexuality, and the military, among other topics--and provides broad, provocative overviews of the politics of our time. It is certain to provoke fresh considerations and challenge settled views." Ira I Katznelson, Ruggles Professor of Political Science and History, Columbia University

From the Inside Flap

In the past quarter-century, conservatives in the US have implemented a policy agenda featuring balanced budgets, lower taxes, fewer social programs, and family values. This book examines the impact of this campaign on contemporary public policy, and on the future of social justice and democracy. Leading experts on social welfare, social security, housing and urban development, health care, and economic policy, review these developments, and analyze the impact of the conservative agenda, particularly on the Clinton administration.

In this comprehensive collection of new essays, the conservative notion that dependency on government is the fundamental problem plaguing America, is challenged. On the contrary, the contributors find that conservative policies only lead to a cycle of recision. The effort to balance the budget, sustained military expenditure, the devolution of social programs, and welfare reform have lead to increased poverty and a future cost to society.

Included in this collection are leading experts on social and economic policy including Zillah Eisenstein, Frances Fox Piven, Ann Markusen, Harvey Molotch, James Petras, Jill Quadagno, Judith Stacey and Ron Walters.
