Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The way Americans live and work has changed significantly since the creation of the Social Security Administration in 1935, but U.S. social welfare policy has failed to keep up with these changes. The model of the male breadwinner-led nuclear family has given way to diverse and often complex family structures, more women in the workplace, and nontraditional job arrangements. Old Assumptions, New Realities identifies the tensions between twentieth-century social policy and twenty-first-century realities for working Americans and offers promising new reforms for ensuring social and economic security. Old Assumptions, New Realities focuses on policy solutions for today's workers—particularly low-skilled workers and low-income families. Contributor Jacob Hacker makes strong and timely arguments for universal health insurance and universal 401(k) retirement accounts. Michael Stoll argues that job training and workforce development programs can mitigate the effects of declining wages caused by deindustrialization, technological changes, racial discrimination, and other forms of job displacement. Michael Sherraden maintains that wealth-building accounts for children—similar to state college savings plans—and universal and progressive savings accounts for workers can be invaluable strategies for all workers, including the poorest. Jody Heymann and Alison Earle underscore the potential for more extensive work-family policies to help the United States remain competitive in a globalized economy. Finally, Jodi Sandfort suggests that the United States can restructure the existing safety net via state-level reforms but only with a host of coordinated efforts, including better information to service providers, budget analyses, new funding sources, and oversight by intermediary service professionals. Old Assumptions, New Realities picks up where current policies leave off by examining what's not working, why, and how the safety net can be redesigned to work better. The book brings much-needed clarity to the process of creating viable policy solutions that benefit all working Americans. A West Coast Poverty Center Volume

Book excerpt: The Rockefeller Foundation's Campaign for American Workers (CAW) aims to enhance the economic security of American workers during the 21st century by improving access to health insurance and increasing short-term and retirement savings. This report summarizes an analysis of economic security in these domains, identifying areas where economic security may be eroding, but also where anecdotes or hypotheses about worsening trends in economic security may not be borne out in empirical evidence. Labor market changes in the past several decades have left more workers to fend for themselves, with less support from employers. Increasing health care costs and new obligations to save for retirement may erode working households' ability to save for emergencies and other short-run needs. Gains that workers have seen in recent years from stock or housing market increases may now be gone, though most evidence used in this report is not yet able to track such losses. The report provides a baseline assessment of the economic environment at the start of the CAW and facilitates tracking trends over time as the initiative continues.
