Reclaiming the American Dream (eBook, ePUB)

The Role of Private Individuals and Voluntary Associations
Redaktion: Cornuelle, Richard C.

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book was the first to sketch the full dimensions of the nation's voluntary sector, give it a name (the independent sector), explain its unfamiliar metabolism, and imagine its enormous unused potential for defining the central problems of an industrial society accurately and acting on them effectively. Upon publication, George Gallup said the book has sparked "the most dramatic shift in American thinking since the New Deal."
