- Summary
- USA. Monograph contrasting social theories of poverty, with a view to a new perspective - compares sociological aspects with regard to the cultural theory (in which low income stems from the lower class value system) and to the situational theory (which views poverty as resulting from social structure), and suggests the need for a social policy which emphasizes social integration with the objective of removing the stigma of poverty. Bibliography pp. 125 to 139 and statistical tables.
