State and the Poor in the 1980s

'œIn this volume a dozen scholars from Harvard's schools of government, education, and law assess what state and local government programs have done and can do to reduce and ameliorate poverty in the state of Massachusetts, and, by implication, in other states. . . . Each contribution to the overall affirmation is grounded in a strong command of relevant policy evaluation literature; each is enriched by some promising and clearly devised innovation for improving the cost-efficiency or effectiveness of the antipoverty policy mix or of some specific policy program; each is clearly voiced to a broadly conceived policy community.'' Contemporary SociologyCarballo, Manuel is the author of 'State and the Poor in the 1980s', published 1984 under ISBN 9780865690646 and ISBN 0865690642.
