Recenzii
"In this fascinating study, Ridzi deftly explores how work-first came to dominate welfare policy and how this neoliberal ideology contours the interactions between welfare staff and their clients. Selling Welfare Reform is a must-read for all those interested in contemporary welfare reform." Nancy Naples, co-editor of The Sexuality of MigrationRidzi provides a deeply grounded and richly detailed view of the many activities that have produced a new United States welfare regime. His focus on implementation gives fresh insight into the complex interplay of local and extra-local forces. Marj orie DeVault, editor of People at Work
