Civic Service: What Difference Does it Make? de James L. Perry

Civic Service: What Difference Does it Make?

Autor James L. Perry, Ann Marie Thomson
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 aug 2003
The concept and practice of civic service is deeply rooted in America's past, present, and future, and has been a featured component of recent presidential agendas. Yet despite ongoing debates about the methods and values of civic service, no recent book has systematically analyzed the effectiveness and outcomes of service programs in America. Civic Service: What Difference Does It Make? presents a thorough, research-based evaluation of public service programs in the United States. Divided into four key parts, this groundbreaking volume presents original information not found anywhere else.
