The Concise History of American Social Policy: Addressing Marginalized Populations is the second textbook in a three-volume series that provides students with astute insight into the events, ideas, and attitudes that have shaped U.S. social policies over time. This volume features a unique focus on American social policies within the context of historically marginalized populations.

Each chapter is dedicated to a particular population, tracing their unique historical narratives in step with social events, legislation, and court decisions that have affected both policymaking and their everyday lives. Dedicated chapters provide historical timelines and brief narratives related to African Americans, aging, Asian Americans, children, individuals with disabilities, Hispanic Americans, immigration, Native Americans, sexual orientation, veterans, and women.

The Concise History of American Social Policy: Addressing Marginalized Populations is a concise yet informative guide for courses in social work, sociology, political science, and American history. It is particularly valuable for courses with emphasis on culturally competent advocacy and practice.
