Description

Since the passage of national welfare reform legislation in the areas of welfare, employment, health and social services have been changing rapidly.

It is divided into: Part One: Federal, State and Local Relations; Part Two: Executive, Legislative and Judicial Relations; Part Three: The Group Struggle; Part Four: Public Values; Part Five: Democracy With Resistance.
