It examines how families have responded to incentives and constraints established by diverse federal and state policies and laws, including the regulation of marriage and of female labor force participation, child labor and education policies--including segregation--social welfare programs, and more. The goal of this book is to present family economic decisions throughout US history in a way that contextualizes where the US economy and the families that drive it have been. It goes on to discuss the role public policies have played in that journey, where we need to go from here, and how public policies can help us get there. At a time when American families are more complex than ever before, this volume will educate readers on the often unrecognized role that government policies have on our family lives, and the uncelebrated role that family economic decision-making has on the future of the US economy. 000890165 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000890165 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed September, 18, 2018). 000890165 650_0 $$aHome economics$$zUnited States. 000890165 650_0 $$aPolitical planning$$zUnited States. 000890165 650_0 $$aFamilies$$xDecision making. 000890165 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aWay, Megan McDonald.$$tFamily Economics and Public Policy, 1800s-Present : How Laws, Incentives, and Social Programs Drive Family Decision-Making and the US Economy.$$dNew York : Palgrave Macmillan, ©2018 000890165 830_0 $$aPalgrave studies in American economic history. 000890165 852__ $$bebk 000890165 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1057/978-1-137-43963-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000890165 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:890165$$pGLOBAL_SET 000890165 980__ $$aEBOOK 000890165 980__ $$aBIB 000890165 982__ $$aEbook 000890165 983__ $$aOnline 000890165 994__ $$a92$$bISE
