چکیده
Under the title "Poverty and Public Policy: What Do We Know? What Should We Do?" the Institute for Research on Poverty and the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services held their third national conference to evaluate public policy efforts to address poverty and its concomitants.' The conference, which took place on May 28-30, 1992, at the University of Wisconsin in Madison, commemorated the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Institute. Organizers of the conference were Sheldon H. Danziger, University of Michigan, an affiliate and former director of IRP; Gary D. Sandefur, University of Wisconsin, also an IRP affiliate; and Daniel H. Weinberg, U.S. Bureau of the Census. The conference papers were subjected to critical scrutiny by discussants and other policy analysts in attendance. (For a list of authors, discussants, and session chairs, see box, p. 7.) The collected papers are to be published by Harvard University Press. (For the contents of the volume, see box, p. 5.)
