The Penn School of Social Policy and Practice enjoys a reputation
as Penn's social justice school, for its faculty actively strives
to translate the highest ideals into workable programs that better
people's lives. In this election year, as Americans debate issues
like immigration, crime, mass incarceration, policing, and welfare
reform, and express concerns over increasing inequality, tax
policy, and divisions by race, sex, and class, "SP2," as the school
is colloquially known, offers its expertise in addressing the
pressing matters of our day. The practical solutions on offer in
this volume showcase the judgment and commitment of the school's
scholars and practitioners, working to change politics from blood
sport to common undertakings. Contributors: Cindy W. Christian,
