Laura Isabell Kettel
Kommentar
This course will introduce students to social policy and the governance of poverty in the United States. The first part of the course provides an overview of U.S. social policy, where we consider current debates on the provision of benefits, the role of government in providing welfare, and the evolution of social policy and welfare provision in the United States.
We will look at key social policy programs and intended beneficiaries as well as consider the U.S. welfare regime in comparative perspective. In the second part of the course, we will engage critically with the issue of poverty and poverty governance and consider current debates on the interactions between social policy and poverty in the United States.
Finally, we look at the politics of policymaking by considering scholarship on what drives policymaking in social policy.
