Description

Regulating the Lives of Women traces the history of U.S. social welfare policy through a critical race and gender lens, revealing how welfare systems have historically classified women as deserving or undeserving of aid based on race, class, and marital status. First published in 1988, this landmark text combines feminist scholarship with welfare analysis to expose the myths and stereotypes embedded in policy. The third edition builds on decades of acclaimed research and includes new material examining how neoliberal policies emerged in the mid-1970s and the strategies governments deployed in response. Essential reading for students and scholars of sociology, social welfare history, and feminist theory.

Key Features

Applies race and gender analysis to the U.S. welfare state, challenging dominant narratives about aid recipients.

Third edition incorporates recent research on neoliberal policy shifts from the mid-1970s onward.

Exposes how welfare regulations define women's eligibility based on stereotypes linked to race, class, and marital status.

Combines historical analysis with contemporary policy critique for graduate and undergraduate coursework.

Published by Routledge, a leading academic press specialising in social sciences and humanities.
