The Captured Economy: How the Powerful Enrich Themselves, Slow Down Growth, and Increase Inequality
ISBN: 9780190627768 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Economists have long taught that there is a tradeoff between efficiency and equity -- that is, between making a bigger pie and dividing it more fairly. This idea is what makes our current predicament so puzzling: today we are faced with both a stagnating economy and sky-high inequality. Both problems have many causes, but Brink Lindsey and Steven M. Teles argue that one cause-state action to entrench privilege by subverting market competition - is common to both. When the state assumes this role, the tradeoff between equity and efficiency no longer holds.
Over the past 40 years or so,... Economists have long taught that there is a tradeoff between efficiency and equity -- that is, between making a bigger pie and dividing it more fairly...

Prison Break: Why Conservatives Turned Against Mass Incarceration
ISBN: 9780190246440 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. American conservatism rose hand-in-hand with the growth of mass incarceration. For decades, conservatives deployed "tough on crime" rhetoric to attack liberals as out-of-touch elitists who coddled criminals while the nation spiraled toward disorder. As a result, conservatives have been the motive force in building our vast prison system. Indeed, expanding the number of Americans under lock and key was long a point of pride for politicians on the right - even as the U.S. prison population eclipsed international records. Over the last few years, conservatives in Washington, D.C. and in...

The Rise of the Conservative Legal Movement: The Battle for Control of the Law
ISBN: 9780691146256 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Starting in the 1970s, conservatives learned that electoral victory did not easily convert into a reversal of important liberal accomplishments, especially in the law. As a result, conservatives' mobilizing efforts increasingly turned to law schools, professional networks, public interest groups, and the judiciary--areas traditionally controlled by liberals. Drawing from internal documents, as well as interviews with key conservative figures, The Rise of the Conservative Legal Movement examines this sometimes fitful, and still only partially successful, conservative challenge to...

Conservatism and American Political Development
ISBN: 9780195373929 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. American political development (APD) is a core subfield in American political science, and focuses on political and policy history. For a variety of reasons, most of the focus in the twentieth century APD has been on liberal policymaking. Yet since the 1970s, conservatives have gradually assumed control over numerous federal policymaking institutions. This edited book will be the first to offer a comprehensive overview of the impact of conservatism on twentieth century American political development, locating its origins in the New Deal and then focusing on how conservatives acted within...

Whose Welfare?: Afdc and Elite Politics
ISBN: 9780700608980 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Few American social programs have been more unpopular, controversial, or costly than Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC). Its budget, now in the tens of billions of dollars, has become a prominent target for welfare reformers and outraged citizens. Indeed, if public opinion ruled, AFDC would be discarded entirely and replaced with employment. Yet it persists. Steven Teles's provocative study reveals why and tells us what we should do about it. Teles argues that, over the last thirty years, political debate on AFDC has been dominated by an impasse created by what he calls...
