Families are more intertwined with institutions than ever as they struggle to maintain their eligibility for services and face the possibility that one institutional involvement could trigger other types of institutional oversight. Many poor families find themselves trapped in a multi-institutional maze, stuck in-between several systems with no clear path to resolution. By showing families' complex and often unpredictable journeys in this maze, this book reveals the limits of the formal rationality by which these institutions ostensibly function and demonstrates how multi-institutional involvement serves to perpetuate the conditions of poverty that these families are fighting to escape"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Poverty $x Government policy $z United States. 650 0 $a Poor families $z United States $x Social conditions. 650 0 $a Public welfare $z United States. 650 7 $a BUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Economic History. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Poverty $x Government policy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01074100 650 7 $a Public welfare. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01083250 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 776 08 $i Online version: $a Paik, Leslie $t Trapped in a maze $d Oakland, California : University of California Press, [2021] $z 9780520975590 $w (DLC) 2021006519 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220526014302.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=07153B1C5F0811ECA70E6FDD2BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
