Throughout the political spectrum the trend in recent decades has been towards welfare privatization, shifting the boundaries of poverty governance from public to private actors--whether they are foundations or social entrepreneurs--whose interests in poverty governance are more obscure. The analysis of more than eighteen years of data suggests that strategies of devolution and privatization make it more difficult for people to move out of poverty. At the same time the framework for understanding the governance structures, enactment practices, and social wealth leverage presented in Privatizing the Polity offers numerous opportunities for acquiring a deeper understanding of assumptions formerly taken for granted and redirecting the system to enhance poverty alleviation."--Publisher's Web site. 650 0 $a Economic assistance, Domestic $z United States. 650 0 $a Poverty $x Government policy $z United States. 650 0 $a Privatization $z United States. 941 $a 4 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231020022034.0 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718092307.0 952 $l HWAX074 $d 20170620010918.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20161006012104.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=58303BAC8B8A11E6A6C758ADDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
