There is a complex set of public policies and associated programs
that constitute the social safety net in the United States. In
Life-Course Implications of U.S. Public Policies, the authors
encourage others to systematically consider the influence of
policies and programs on lives, aging, and the life course, and how
the consequences might vary by gender, race/ethnicity, sexual
orientation, ability, and social class. The volume aims to foster
an appreciation of how policy influences connect and condition the
life course. Chapters examine issues relating to health, housing,
food security, crime, employment, and care work, amongst other
issues, and demonstrate how the principles of the life-course
perspective and cumulative inequality theory can be used to inform
contemporary public policy debates. Life-Course Implications of
U.S. Public Policies will be a great resource for students of
gerontology, sociology, demography, social work, public health and
public policy, as well as policy makers, researchers in think
tanks, and advocates, who are concerned with age-based policy.
