In this narrative analysis, John Andrew examines the underlying ideas and
principal objectives of the most ambitious and controversial American
reform effort since the New Deal
—
in the areas of civil rights, poverty,
health, education, urban life, and consumer issues. The Great Society in
some way touched the lives of most Americans. But, as Mr. Andrew
points out, LB
J's
consensus could persist only by avoiding divisive issues.
As times changed and the economy deteriorated, the mood of the nation
shifted, and the ideals of the mid-sixties collapsed in the face of ideolog¬
ical and political polarization. In the end, as Mr. Andrew shows, much of
the Great Society failed along with the idealism that had sparked it. Yet
the issues it addressed proved to be so intractable that the search for solu¬
tions continues to generate political controversy even today. |
