November 7, 2011
Comment on Facebook
Dr. Richard J. Gelles, Dean of the University of Pennsylvania's School of Social Policy and Practice, explains why government programs designed to cure social ills do not work. Gelles leads a debate comparing and contrasting current programs and presents a controversial proposal for a universal entitlement designed to replace failing social programs. Gelles is co-faculty director of the Field Center for Children's Policy, Practice, and Research and the founding director of the Ortner-Unity Program on Family Violence.
