修订和更新的第七版,这一文本的学生,学者和决策者考虑到广泛的变化,联邦援助方案自1991年以来。报告审查了有受抚养子女的家庭、单亲家庭、青年、退伍军人和老年人的应享权利方案受到侵蚀的情况。它特别着眼于1996年福利改革的影响,这一改革极大地改变了援助格局。在考察了美国穷人的特点之后,该书分析了援助方案的四种战略:主要针对劳动力之外的穷人的收入维持方案;提供商品和服务的方案;旨在防止贫困蔓延到新一代的方案;以及援助工作穷人的方案。最后一章探讨了减轻贫困的可行办法。
The revised and updated seventh edition of this text for students, scholars and policymakers takes into account the broad changes in federal assistance programmes since 1991. It reviews the erosion of entitlement programmes to families with dependent children, single-parent households, youth, veterans and the elderly. It looks particularly at the impact of the 1996 welfare reform which dramatically reconfigured the aid landscape. Following an examination of the characteristics of the American poor, the book analyzes four strategies of assistance programmes: income maintenance programmes directed mainly at the poor who are outside the workforce; programmes supplying goods and services; programmes designed to prevent the spread of poverty to new generations; and programmes to aid the working poor. The concluding chapter explores feasible approaches to the alleviation of poverty.
