Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study is an examination of public reaction to the Social Security Act of 1935 and its various provisions, and to the proposals for its extension, from its enactment to the fall of 1965. Lt is an examination of the way in which these provisions were understood, the degree to which they were accepted, and the underlying attitudes toward poverty that are presumed to be associated with them. The basic data analyzed in this study were obtained in nationwide public opinion surveys that have been taken by a variety of agencies since 1935, notably those conducted by the American Institute of Public Opinion (the Gallup poll), Elmo Roper (principally for Fortune Magazine), the National Opinion Research Center (now affiliated with the University of Chicago), and the Survey Research Center of the University of Michigan. This study was undertaken in the conviction that whatever information is available on these matters ought to be retrieved and assimilated, because inevitably it will improve our understanding of the process by which a free, competitive society can solve the paradox of poverty amid abundance.

Book Synopsis New Directions in Public Opinion by : Adam J. Berinsky
Download or read book New Directions in Public Opinion written by Adam J. Berinsky and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-12-21 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of public opinion is one of the most diverse in political science. Over the last 60 years, scholars have drawn upon the disciplines of psychology, economics, sociology, and even biology to learn how ordinary people come to understand the complicated business of politics. But much of the path-breaking research in the field of public opinion is published in journals, taking up fairly narrow questions one at a time and often requiring advanced statistical knowledge to understand these findings. As a result, the study of public opinion can seem confusing and incoherent to undergraduates. To engage undergraduate students in this area, a new type of textbook is required. The second edition of New Directions in Public Opinion brings together leading scholars to provide an accessible and coherent overview of the current state of the field of public opinion. Each chapter provides a general overview of topics that are at the cutting edge of study as well as well-established cornerstones of the field. Each contributor has made substantive revisions to their chapters, and three chapters have been added on genetics and biology, immigration, and political extremism and the Tea Party. Suitable for use as a main textbook or in tandem with a lengthier survey, this book comprehensively covers the topics of public opinion research and pushes students further to explore critical topics in contemporary politics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Washington Post Book of the Year Winner of the Merle Curti Award Winner of the Jacques Barzun Prize Winner of the Ralph Waldo Emerson Award “A masterful study of privacy.” —Sue Halpern, New York Review of Books “Masterful (and timely)...[A] marathon trek from Victorian propriety to social media exhibitionism...Utterly original.” —Washington Post Every day, we make decisions about what to share and when, how much to expose and to whom. Securing the boundary between one’s private affairs and public identity has become an urgent task of modern life. How did privacy come to loom so large in public consciousness? Sarah Igo tracks the quest for privacy from the invention of the telegraph onward, revealing enduring debates over how Americans would—and should—be known. The Known Citizen is a penetrating historical investigation with powerful lessons for our own times, when corporations, government agencies, and data miners are tracking our every move. “A mighty effort to tell the story of modern America as a story of anxieties about privacy...Shows us that although we may feel that the threat to privacy today is unprecedented, every generation has felt that way since the introduction of the postcard.” —Louis Menand, New Yorker “Engaging and wide-ranging...Igo’s analysis of state surveillance from the New Deal through Watergate is remarkably thorough and insightful.” —The Nation
Book Synopsis The Delegated Welfare State by : Kimberly J. Morgan
Download or read book The Delegated Welfare State written by Kimberly J. Morgan and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2011-10-01 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why are so many American social programs delegated to private actors? And what are the consequences for efficiency, accountability, and the well-being of beneficiaries? The Delegated Welfare State examines the development of the American welfare state through the lens of delegation: how policymakers have avoided direct governmental provision of benefits and services, turning to non-state actors for the governance of social programs. Utilizing case studies of Medicare and the 2009-10 health care reform, Morgan and Campbell argue that the prevalence of delegated governance reflects the powerful role of interest groups in American politics, the dominance of Congress in social policymaking, and deep contradictions in American public opinion. Americans want both social programs and small government, leaving policy makers in a bind. Contracting out public programs to non-state actors masks the role of the state and enlists private allies who push for passage. Although delegated governance has been politically expedient, enabling the growth of government programs in an anti-government political climate, it raises questions about fraud, abuse, administrative effectiveness, and accountability. In probing both the causes and consequences of delegated governance, The Delegated Welfare State offers a novel interpretation of both American social welfare politics and the nature of the American state.

Book Synopsis Public Opinion, Public Policy, and Smoking by : Thomas R. Marshall
Download or read book Public Opinion, Public Policy, and Smoking written by Thomas R. Marshall and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-07-25 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public Opinion, Public Policy, and Smoking tracks Americans’ changing attitudes about cigarette smoking over the last century. With data from more than five thousand public and privately conducted polls, this book carefully examines how Americans came to understand the health risks of smoking; how the tobacco industry sought to reframe smoking; and how public opinion support for tobacco control affected lawsuits, elections, and public policies. This book tests several well-known linkage models that connect public opinion with public policy. It shows that conventional wisdom about public opinion and tobacco control policy is often mistaken. This book offers the first in-depth look at American public opinion and cigarette smoking during the last century.
Book Synopsis Safeguarding Social Security for Future Generations by : W. Andrew Achenbaum
Download or read book Safeguarding Social Security for Future Generations written by W. Andrew Achenbaum and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-02-24 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a unique multigenerational approach to saving Social Security. Public programs have adapted to societal aging, but fears overwhelm hopes for Social Security’s future prospects. Conservatives want to privatize operations that liberals seek to expand. Younger workers are happy that Social Security protects their elders, but most do not expect benefits when needed. Achenbaum reframes conflicting perspectives and offers new models of respectful transgenerational dialogue that can mobilize pragmatic reforms. Designed for use in gerontology, social work, and public policy courses, Safeguarding Social Security for Future Generations offers measured hope for leaving a legacy that safeguards the common good.
