Maume Vol. 4 Children and the State Westport, Conn. Praeger 2007 xviii, 172 p. In a 2004 study by the Annie E. Casey, Ford, and Rockefeller Foundations it was reported that a large number of American families are currently faring poorly in their struggle to provide for themselves. Low-income and poor families were found to contain one-third of all of the children in American working families. Low-wage jobs without benefits mean that families at or below the poverty line live a precarious existence. This four-volume set is designed to reveal, explicate, analyze, and assess the effects of an inadequate income on children. Each volume contains original essays written by an interdisciplinary roster of contributors.; Includes bibliographical references and indexes Child welfare United States; Children Social conditions United States; Poverty United States; Phúc lợi trẻ em Hoa Kỳ; Nghèo đói Hoa Kỳ; Trẻ em Điều kiện xã hội Hoa Kỳ Maume, David J http://lrc.tdmu.edu.vn/opac/search/detail.asp?aID=2&ID=33584 Trung tâm Học liệu Trường Đại học Thủ Dầu Một
