Since the end of the Second World War, poverty in the United States has been a persistent focus of social anxiety, public debate, and federal policy. This volume argues convincingly that we will not be able to reduce or eliminate poverty until we take the political factors that contribute to its continuation into account. Ideal for course use, A New Introduction to Poverty opens with a historical overview of the major intellectual and political debates surrounding poverty in the United States. Several factors have received inadequate attention: the impact of poverty on women; the synergy of racism and poverty; race and gender stratification of the workplace; and, crucially, the ways in which the powerful use their resources to maintain the economic status quo.

He is currently vice-chair of the Institute of Race Relations and has been the editor of Sage Race Relations Abstracts since 1980.

Louis Kushnick is a sociologist whose writings of more than thirty years are collected in Race, Class, and Struggle: Essays on Racism and Inequality in Britain, the United States, and Western Europe. The older essays have been updated to reflect modem scholarship. An American raised in Brooklyn, New York, Kushnick has taught in England for most of his career, has been associated with the Institute of Race Relations, and has edited the Race Relations Abstracts series. Kushnick is well qualified to write on his subject as it is experienced on both sides of the Atlantic, particularly in the United States and England.
A New Introduction to Poverty: The Role of Race, Power, and Politics (1999) is a collection of seventeen essays that look at poverty from various angles, providing a broader interpretation of the root causes other than the usual single-factor conclusions such as personal choice or cultural poverty.
