In the process, they built a pillar of the American welfare state. Legislation and rehabilitation plans formulated shortly after the U.S. entered the Great War aimed to minimize the government's long-term obligations to veterans, but within a decade, those who had served gained conditional access to their own direct assistance agency and a national system of hospitals. Burdens of War explains why that drastic transition occurred, and how one group of citizens won the right to obtain publicly funded health services. The story of the early roots of service-related health policies has a variety of larger implications. It shows how veterans' welfare shifted from centering on pension and domicile care programs rooted in the nineteenth century to the provision of access to direct medical services; how shifting ideals about hospitals and medical care influenced policy at the dusk of the Progressive Era; how race, class, and gender shaped the health-related experiences of soldiers, veterans, and caregivers; and how interest groups capitalized on a tense political and social climate to bring about change. On a general level, an examination of the roots of a nationwide veterans' hospital system demonstrates how privileges were won in the twentieth-century United States. It reveals a moment of state expansion, but also illustrates the wider tendency of the U.S. government to award entitlements selectively. The policies that paved the way for the advent of a veterans' medical system thus deserve to be considered as foundational in the development and shape of the American welfare state."--Provided by publisher. 000925277 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000925277 61010 $$aUnited States.$$bVeterans Bureau$$xHistory. 000925277 650_0 $$aVeterans$$xMedical care$$zUnited States$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000925277 650_0 $$aWorld War, 1914-1918$$xMedical care$$zUnited States. 000925277 650_0 $$aWorld War, 1914-1918$$xVeterans$$xMedical care$$zUnited States$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000925277 650_0 $$aDisabled veterans$$xRehabilitation$$zUnited States$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000925277 650_0 $$aVeterans' hospitals$$zUnited States$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000925277 650_0 $$aVeterans$$xServices for$$zUnited States$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000925277 650_0 $$aMedical policy$$zUnited States$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000925277 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aAdler, Jessica L., 1978-$$tBurdens of war.$$dBaltimore : Johns Hopkins University Press, 2017$$z9781421422879$$w(DLC) 2016041512$$w(OCoLC)958962947 000925277 830_0 $$aReconfiguring American political history. 000925277 8520_ $$bcoll 000925277 85280 $$bebk$$hEBSCOhost 000925277 85640 $$3eBooks on EBSCOhost$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=1501164$$zOnline Access 000925277 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:925277$$pGLOBAL_SET 000925277 980__ $$aEBOOK 000925277 980__ $$aBIB 000925277 982__ $$aEbook 000925277 983__ $$aOnline
