Reform, not rhetoric: a critique of welfare policy and charting of new directions.
Current changes in welfare policy are examined, and the likelihood that they will be unworkable or counterproductive is discussed. Based on knowledge and data from the articles in this special section, as well as other relevant research, policy and program recommendations are offered for welfare reform that would most effectively help poor women support themselves and their families.
