    Reflections on the American Social Welfare State: The Collected Papers of James R. Dumpson, PhD, 1930–1990 presents an insightful overview of American social welfare developments over a critical 50-year period, when social welfare policy was expanded to new heights through New Deal and civil rights legislation followed by conservative attacks on the foundation of these progressive policy reforms. Professor Alma J. Carten describes and critically assesses these developments, drawing upon scholarly accounts of social welfare history, her personal experience as a social policy analyst, and a careful examination of the papers of Dr. James R. Dumpson, one of the nation's most prominent African American social work policy advocates. Professor Carten presents a unique social policy narrative resulting from a combination of objective social welfare policy history intertwined with her subjective biographical account of Dumpson, who influenced much of that history. The resulting hybrid makes for informative and engaging reading.
     
    Professor Carten quotes extensively from the Dumpson papers to illustrate his philosophical approach to social welfare policy development, his wide-ranging contributions in shaping government programs for the poor, and influence on the social work profession and education. The issues addressed in the papers range from global topics such as the role of social welfare in modern society to health and human services administration, social planning in times of economic uncertainty, the nature of racism, education for effective social welfare and administrative practices, and the central role of social work in advancing the democratic goals of American society.
     
    Dr. Dumpson is one of many social work pioneers, past and present, who have made and are continuing to make considerable contributions to the field, and yet many of their stories remain untold. The book closes this gap in literature and is an important resource for students studying the history of social work and public policy, and for educators and practitioners in the field of health and human services.
     
    Learning Objectives:
    • Discuss and apply the core social work values and ethical principles guiding the practice of the subject in carrying out leadership roles as a public servant, administrator, advocate, and academic.
    • Discuss and describe the political, economic and social forces that laid the foundation for the federalization of American social welfare policy, and influenced critical periods of welfare reforms of the following decades. 
    • Identify the contributions of the subject in advancing issues of equity and diversity in reforms of CSWE educational policies and accreditation standards (EPAS), US social welfare policies, and programs for the poor and families served by the child welfare system.
    • Articulate the usefulness of historical research as a method for analyzing the underlying values and the political, economic, and social forces driving US social welfare policy at various points of US history and their influence on social work practice.
