Product Information

Little work has been done to systematically analyze how high-profile incidents of child neglect and abuse shape child welfare policymaking in the United States. In "Scandalous Politics", Juliet Gainsborough presents quantitative analysis of all fifty states and qualitative case studies of three states (Florida, Colorado, and New Jersey) that reveal how well-publicized child welfare scandals result in adoption of new legislation and new administrative procedures. Gainsborough's quantitative analysis suggests that child welfare policymaking is frequently reactive, while the case studies provide more detail about variations and the legislative process. For example, the case studies illustrate how the nature and extent of the policy response varies according to particular characteristics of the political environment in the state and the administrative structure of the child welfare system. "Scandalous Politics" increases our understanding of the politics of child welfare at both the state and federal level and provides new insights into existing theories of agenda-setting and the policy process. It will be of interest to everyone involved with child welfare policymaking and especially public policy and public administration scholars.

Reviews
"Gainsborough's book deserves to be a classic text because it sheds light on an under-studied area of social policy. It provides a detailed account of the political realities about how child welfare policies are formed and outlines strategies for ensuring greater accountability of these processes to vulnerable children and their families. I recommend this work to anyone interested in the politics of social policy production and to anyone who wants to make a constructive difference to the lives of vulnerable children and their families." -- Karen Healy , Australian Review of Public Affairs, Juliet Gainsborough successfully applies an analytical lens to the heavily value-laden domain of policymaking for abused and neglected children. . . . The author effectively provides the detail, nuance, and complexity of the relationship between child welfare scandals and the politics of policymaking., Thorough exploration of an understudied, but theoretically and substantively important, area of state and federal policy. . . . The greatest contribution of the book is the way she deftly weaves her quantitative analysis with her qualitative case studies so that is is complementary rather than competitive., Gainsborough's book deserves to be a classic text because it sheds light on an under-studied area of social policy . . . I recommend this work to anyone interested in the politics of social policy production and to anyone who wants to make a constructive difference to the lives of vulnerable children and their families.

  • I have cited it for at least 7 papers, finally decided to buy a copy

    Brilliant analysis of the political impact on child welfare. Brilliant breakdown of policy and social/cultural shifts over the last century. Good for caseworkers, academic coursework, good for every American, frankly.
