"Housing and the Democratic Ideal uses Abrams's experiences as a lens through which we can better understand the development of American social policy and state expansion during the twentieth century. In his left-leaning critique of centrist liberalism. Abrams took aim at the use of fiscal and monetary policies to achieve social objectives - a practice that allowed business interests to maximize private profits at the expense of public benefits. His growing concern over racial discrimination prefigured its emergence as a highly contested aspect of the American state."--BOOK JACKET.
