Sinopsis

The first history of welfare in Canada’s richest province offers a new perspective on our contemporary response to poverty. Struthers examines the evolution of provincial and local programs for single mothers, the aged, and the unemployed between 1920 and 1970, when the modern welfare state first took shape.

De la contraportada

'James Struthers acknowledges the complexity of the subject and does not oversimplify issues. This often requires a skillful balancing act as bureaucratic imperatives, political pressures, ' the spirit of the times, ' private social agencies, social work professionals, the unemployed, labor unions, federal-provincial and provincial-municipal relations all interact in the shaping of welfare policy. He is scrupulous in giving due weight to all these variables.'-----James M. Pitsula, Professor of History, University of Regina.
