Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the dramatic shift in public opinion towards unemployment and government relief that occurred in the United States during the Great Depression of the 1930s. The author traces the evolution of federal work relief programs, from the simplistic notion that government should not support the people to the complex understanding that joblessness and economic hardship have wide-reaching societal costs. The book demonstrates the unprecedented scale of unemployment during the Great Depression, and the many factors that contributed to the crisis. It also reveals how, beginning in 1933, the government began to experiment with various work relief programs, learning from both successes and failures as it developed an effective response to the crisis of mass unemployment. Ultimately, the book argues that the New Deal's legacy of work relief programs not only helped end the Depression but also laid the foundation for a more active role of the federal government in addressing economic hardship. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
