Social Policy

 

“SOCIAL POLICY asks what is to be done to secure basic structural changes in American society. Its pages will provide a meeting ground — and battleground — where ideas, tactics and strategies for radical reconstruction of American institutions can be expressed and exchanged, tested and debated, expanded and deepened.”

Editorial in Social Policy #1, May/June 1970, Frank Riessman, Founding Editor
