The Upper Limit sets out to explain why. It provides a comprehensive theory of the evolution of social and penal policy which can be summarized thus: welfare has to be less attractive than low-wage work, and punishment has to make criminal life less attractive than welfare. Low-wage work sets the upper limit of social and penal policy. Declining living standards for the poor since the 1970s have lowered the upper limit in the United States. The Upper Limit explores how these transformations and the ensuing crime drop have affected the lives of the poor in a formerly high-crime Brooklyn neighborhood, East New York. It explains the dark logic behind police brutality, the trials of prisoner reentry and the inhumanity of New York's homeless shelters"--Provided by publisher. 588 0 Print version record and CIP data provided by publisher; resource not viewed. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Public welfare|zNew York (State)|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008110264|xHistory.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 0 Criminal justice, Administration of|zNew York (State) |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2009122417 |xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh99005024 650 0 Minimum wage|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85144670|xSocial aspects|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /subjects/sh00002758|zNew York (State)|0https://id.loc.gov /authorities/names/n80126293-781 650 7 Public welfare.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1083250 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Minimum wage.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1022855 650 7 Social aspects.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1354981 650 7 Criminal justice, Administration of.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/883246 650 7 SOCIAL SCIENCE|xCriminology.|2bisacsh 651 0 East New York (New York, N.Y.)|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n2004114104 651 7 New York (State)|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1210280 651 7 New York (State)|zNew York|zEast New York.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1329007 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 776 08 |iPrint version:|z9780520305212|z0520305213|w(DLC) 2018060707|w(OCoLC)1082295657 776 08 |iPrint version:|aBonnet, François 1979-|tUpper limit. |dOakland, California : University of California Press, [2019]|z9780520973305|w(DLC) 2019001514 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=2242081|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
