This book identifies specific changes to bring U.S. social policy
in accord with the Information Age of the 21st century, in contrast
to the policy infrastructure of industrial America. Welfare State
3.0: Social Policy after the Pandemic acknowledges the existing
social infrastructure, considers viable options, and provides
supporting data to suggest social policy reform by four strategies:
consolidating programs, harmonizing applications, expanding equity,
and conducting experiments. The book favors discreet, poignant
proposals of social programs. In 12 chapters, the text provides an
analysis that honors past accomplishments, recognizes the influence
of established stakeholders, and concedes program inadequacies,
while plotting specific opportunities for policy improvement. In
contrast to liberalism's tendency toward idealism, the book adopts
a realpolitik appreciation for social policy. Written by one of the
most respected academics of U.S. social policy, this book will be
required reading for all undergraduate and postgraduate students of
social policy, social work, sociology, and U.S. politics more
broadly.
