Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the changes faced by American society after World War I and proposes a path to reconstruction. The author, a prominent figure in public welfare and economics, delves into the pressing economic and social issues of the time. He argues that an era of unprecedented progress and prosperity will follow the war, but only if concrete steps are taken to address the underlying problems facing the nation. The book advocates for the establishment of a new social aristocracy based on service and sacrifice, rather than wealth and status. It also underscores the importance of improving housing conditions, especially for the working class, in order to promote health and efficiency. The author further emphasizes the need to address the "domestic problem" by making domestic service more attractive and rewarding for women, and suggests that unemployment is a major cause of alcohol abuse rather than vice versa. Overall, this book provides a thought-provoking analysis of the challenges and opportunities facing the United States after the war and offers a roadmap for building a more just and equitable society that will ensure the nation's continued prosperity.
