520 |a In this book, the author focuses on the history, relevance, and impact of domestic national service. She argues that only by examining programs over time can we understand national service's successes and limitations, both in terms of its political support and its civic lessons. Based on extensive archival and documentary research, supplemented with interviews, this book provides a detailed policy history of VISTA and AmeriCorps and of America's main national service programs taken together as a whole. Moreover, the author furthers our understanding of twentieth-century American political development by comparing programs founded during three distinct political eras - the New Deal, the Great Society, and the early Clinton years - and tracing them over time. To a remarkable extent, the CCC, VISTA, and AmeriCorps reflect the policymaking ethos and political controversies of their times, illuminating principles that hold well beyond the field of national service. This book evaluates the civic effects of national service policy in the context of political development in the United States. At the same time, by emphasizing the programs' effects on citizenship and civic engagement, this volume deepens our understanding of how programs can act as "public policy for democracy." -- Publisher's website.
