Settlement Houses Under Siege: The Struggle to Sustain Community Organizations in New York City
ISBN: 9780231119306 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 289 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Settlement Houses Under Siege: The Struggle to Sustain Community Organizations in New York City examines the past, present, and future of the settlement house in particular and nonprofit community-based services as a whole. Too often viewed as an artifact of the Progressive era, the settlement house remains today, in a variety of guises, a vital instrument capable of strengthening the social capital of impoverished communities. Yet it has been under attack in recent years, particularly in New York City. Cutbacks in social service funding at federal, state, and local levels during the...

Changing Politics of Education: Privitization and the Dispossessed Lives Left Behind
ISBN: 9781612052700 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 205 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The authors persuasively argue that the present cascade of reforms to public education is a consequence of a larger intention to shrink government. The startling result is that more of public education s assets and resources are moving to the private sector and to the prison industrial complex. Drawing on various forms of evidence structural, economic, narrative, and youth-generated participatory research the authors reveal new structures and circuits of dispossession and privilege that amount to a clear failure of present policy. Policymaking is at war with the interests of the vast majority...

Organizing for Educational Justice : The Campaign for Public School Reform in the South Bronx
ISBN: 9780816669615 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Since the 1980s, strategies for improving public education in America have focused on either competition through voucher programs and charter schools or standardization as enacted into federal law through No Child Left Behind. These reforms, however, have failed to narrow the performance gap between poor urban students and other children. In response, parents have begun to organize local campaigns to strengthen the public schools in their communities. One of the most original, successful, and influential of these parent-led campaigns has been the Community Collaborative to Improve District 9...

Austerity Blues: Fighting for the Soul of Public Higher Education
ISBN: 9781421420677 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Public higher education in the postwar era was a key economic and social driver in American life, making college available to millions of working men and women. Since the 1980s, however, government austerity policies and politics have severely reduced public investment in higher education, exacerbating inequality among poor and working-class students of color, as well as part-time faculty. In Austerity Blues, Michael Fabricant and Stephen Brier examine these devastating fiscal retrenchments nationally, focusing closely on New York and California, both of which were leaders in the...

The Welfare State Crisis and the Transformation of Social Service Work
ISBN: 9780873326421 / Angielski / Twarda / 1992 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book has emerged in response to social service workers' vivid descriptions of changes in the practice of their craft during the past 15 years and to the scanty literature that addressed their concerns. Few works have attempted to explore the interplay between the recent broader changes affecting the welfare state (fiscal crisis, cost containment, privatization, etc) and the restructuring of social service work. Yet, it is clear that the fiscal decisions of the 1980s profoundly affected both the context and content of social service practice. "The Welfare State Crisis and the...
