Caring for America: Home Health Workers in the Shadow of the Welfare State
Caring for America is the definitive history of care work and its surprisingly central role in the American labor movement and class politics from the New Deal to the present. The authors create a narrative of the home care industry that interweaves four histories-the evolution of the modern American welfare state; the rise of the service sector-based labor movement; the persistence of race, class, and gender-based inequality; and the aging of the Americanpopulation-and considers their impact on today's most dynamic social movements.
