Download or read book Launching the War on Poverty written by Michael L. Gillette and published by Macmillan Reference USA. This book was released on 1996 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much political debate in the 1990s has revolved around the War on Poverty launched in the 1960s. Liberals argue that the war is over, and the poor lost; conservatives feel the war should never have been waged in the first place. Michael Gillette has interviewed many of the participants in the War on Poverty to form a portrait of the hectic days when the anti-poverty programs began, from the perspectives of the bureaucrats, political appointees, and activists who shaped the initiatives. Launching the War on Poverty details the origins and passage of the Economic Opportunity Act of 1964, as well as the resistance to the program and criticism from local political forces and social groups. Gillette effectively recreates the atmosphere of the turbulent days surrounding the implementation of this controversial social reform.-- Examination of the beginnings of the War on Poverty agencies when recent political debate has focused on dismantling them.-- Analyses of the different programs, from popular agencies like the Job Corps and Head Start, to programs like Community Action, which were the target of much criticism.-- A must-read during an election year.

Download or read book The Newark Frontier written by Mark Krasovic and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To many, Newark seems a profound symbol of postwar liberalism’s failings: an impoverished, deeply divided city where commitments to integration and widespread economic security went up in flames during the 1967 riots. While it’s true that these failings shaped Newark’s postwar landscape and economy, as Mark Krasovic shows, that is far from the whole story. The Newark Frontier shows how, during the Great Society, urban liberalism adapted and grew, defining itself less by centralized programs and ideals than by administrative innovation and the small-scale, personal interactions generated by community action programs, investigative commissions, and police-community relations projects. Paying particular attention to the fine-grained experiences of Newark residents, Krasovic reveals that this liberalism was rooted in an ethic of experimentation and local knowledge. He illustrates this with stories of innovation within government offices, the dynamic encounters between local activists and state agencies, and the unlikely alliances among nominal enemies. Krasovic makes clear that postwar liberalism’s eventual fate had as much to do with the experiments waged in Newark as it did with the violence that rocked the city in the summer of 1967.
