Abstract

This article traces the approach of moderate southern Senators toward domestic hunger and welfare in the late 1960s and the 1970s. Often overlooked in scholarly accounts, these Senators formed a significant minority of the southern delegation. Their behavior demonstrates both the continued possibilities of a more inclusive southern politics after the mid-1960s and the importance of moderate southerners to the Food Stamp Program's major expansion in the years after 1964. At the same time, however, these politicians opposed guaranteed-income schemes and endorsed “workfare” measures promoted by more conservative southerners that conditioned aid on participation in low-wage employment.

温和的南方参议员,饥饿和福利在漫长的20世纪60年代
本文追溯了20世纪60年代末和70年代温和的南方参议员对国内饥饿和福利问题的态度。这些参议员通常在学术报道中被忽视,他们在南方代表团中占了重要的少数。他们的行为既表明了20世纪60年代中期以后南方政治更具包容性的可能性,也表明了温和的南方人对1964年以后食品券计划大规模扩张的重要性。然而,与此同时,这些政客反对保障收入计划,并支持由更保守的南方人推动的“工作福利”措施,这些措施以参与低薪就业为条件提供援助。

The Journal publishes original peer-reviewed research and analysis by established and emerging scholars throughout the world, considering US history, politics, literature, institutions, economics, film, popular culture, geography, sociology and related subjects in domestic, continental, hemispheric, and global contexts. Its expanded book review section offers in-depth analysis of recent American Studies scholarship to promote further discussion and debate.
