Fiscal Austerity and Aging: Shifting Government Responsibility for the Elderly - Robert J. Newcomer - Hardcover

The authors draw on the work they have done for a major research centre, in order to assess both the shifts in policy towards the elderly which have been wrought by the austerity politics of the 1980s, and the likely long-term impact of such changes. The views taken of older people, the history of public policy toward the aged, the shifting responsibility between state and federal government are discussed.Estes, Carroll L. is the author of 'Fiscal Austerity and Aging: Shifting Government Responsibility for the Elderly - Robert J.
