| Summary, etc. |
"This thirteenth edition of Social Problems appears during a period of intense political debate in the United States, a debate that is fueled, in part, by the continuing conflict in Iraq and the Middle East, by the threats of global warming, natural disasters, and food insecurity in many regions of the world, and by the rise of China, India, and Iran as new economic and political powers on the world scene. During the life of this edition, the United States will have a new president and Congress. A new federal administrations will no doubt develop policies to address issues such as the crisis in health care for low-income Americans, the erosion of the United States' reputation in the Islamic world and elsewhere, and much more. Does that mean we can expect enormous progress toward solving domestic and global social problems? Not likely, because the problems discussed in this text have been with us for generations and do not admit of easy solutions. But no doubt there will be changes in policy based on trends that we can already determine." -- Preface |
