The American Myth of Markets in Social Policy examines how
implementing American tropes in policy design inadvertently
frustrates policy goals. The book investigates multiple
market-oriented designs including funding for private organizations
to deliver public services, funding for individuals to buy
services, and policies incentivizing or mandating private actors to
provide social policy. Hevenstone shows that these solutions often
not only fail to achieve social goals, but actively undermine them.
The book carefully details the mechanisms through which this
occurs, and examines several policies in depth, covering universal
social insurance programs like healthcare and pensions, as well as
smaller interventions like programs for the homeless.
