The Death and Life of the American Middle Class : A Policy Agenda for American Jobs Creation, Hardback Book

The Death and Life of the American Middle Class : A Policy Agenda for American Jobs Creation Hardback

Hardback

Description

This book addresses what is perhaps the most salient issue in American politics today: the decline of the middle class.

It is this single issue that drove the outlier presidential candidates Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump to national prominence, and undergirded the electoral victory of Donald Trump.

While there are other longer studies exploring in detail the structural forces, most prominently the loss of manufacturing in the US, that have caused the contraction of the middle class, none offer in shorter form practical policy solutions directly geared towards practitioners in government and the private sector.

This work focuses specifically on combining both an academic analysis of the subject combined with detailed policy recommendations.

These recommendations are designed to be implemented; they take into account the latest set of real world political variables such as actual current legislative and institutional agendas currently in play on the federal and local levels.
