On May 20, 2002, a National Forum was held to develop and advocate for a comprehensive housing policy for the nation. A group of mayors and public and private sector housing leaders called for housing to be made a national priority. The Forum participants reaffirmed the importance of housing to the vitality and stability of our nation's cities and agreed that housing is intricately linked to national priorities, such as education, public safety and healthcare. There was a call for a comprehensive national housing policy that addresses the variety of housing challenges in our urban communities including homeownership, rental housing, public housing, special needs housing and homelessness issues.
As we enter 2020 it seems as if the country's politics are undergoing nothing less than a tectonic shift—one result of which is that the word "neoliberalism" has passed out of the usage of academics, into general parlance. Those trying to make sense of it all find that the market is flooded with public affairs books—but most are longer on political hacks' rants than substance, or too busy telling colorful stories, to offer answers to such obvious and essential questions as •Just what is neoliberalism anyway? (And why is there so much confusion about this anyway?) •What did the Reagan administration actually do, and what were the results? •What was the policy of the Clinton administration, and did it justify its characterization by critics as neoliberal? (Ditto Obama.) •What was the country's economic record before and after "the neoliberal turn?" However, THE NEOLIBERAL AGE IN AMERICA: FROM CARTER systematically examines Federal policy from the 1970s through the Presidencies of Carter, Reagan, the two Bushes, Clinton and Obama, emphasizing specifics and hard data to offer a picture of just what happened in these years as a matter of practical policy, and its consequences—answering these questions and more as we confront this era of crisis, and what may be a historic election this upcoming November.
