More about the book
Focusing on the Rochester Monroe Anti-Poverty Initiative (RMAPI), the book explores the persistent issue of poverty in Rochester, which has one of the highest rates in the U.S. Despite its establishment to combat poverty, RMAPI has seen little progress in five years. The analysis highlights how the initiative's organizational framework and the contradictions within neo-liberal welfare reforms contribute to its ineffectiveness. Using Rochester as a case study, the book critiques the limitations of neo-liberal strategies in addressing poverty, appealing to readers interested in urban politics and welfare policy.
