| Popis: | Acceptance of the need for government-sponsored welfare programs has declined radically in the past 15 years. The history of welfare initiatives is traced, from their inception as a buffer to inherent inequities of a capitalist economy to their recent demonizing as corruptive influences on recipients of benefits. The political shifts that have permitted this change, along with its effects on the lives of poor people, particularly women, are discussed. |
