American social policy today largely serves global corporate
interests rather than the general public, according to William
Roth. Based on incisive analyses of economic globalization, class,
politics, and bureaucracy, "The Assault on Social Policy" argues
that the perfection of the free market is a myth. Roth analyzes the
rhetoric used to make poverty seem acceptable, shows how
corporations affect the distribution of wealth and other resources,
and considers the effect on disabled people, criminals, children,
and health care. He concludes that increased transnational
corporate power has created the need for large-scale systematic
public policy changes.
