Winner of the 1997 Richard A. Lester Prize for the Outstanding Book in Labor Economics and Industrial Relations, Princeton University's Industrial Relations Section One of Choice's Outstanding Academic Titles for 1998 "[Blank] examines the condition of America's poor and the policies used to help them. She argues plausibly that trade is only one of the factors pressing down on the wages of the unskilled."--The Economist "Even those who disagree strongly with Blank's analysis should agree that It Takes a Nation takes a prize for honest, meticulous, and morally alert scholarship."--John J. Dilulio, Jr., The Weekly Standard "An important book on poverty bound to displease some liberals while challenging both libertarian and cultural conservatives to rethink, if not abandon, their respective anti-poverty positions... Even those who disagree strongly with Blank's analysis should agree that It Takes a Nation takes a prize for honest, meticulous, and morally alert scholarship."--John J. DiIulio, Jr., The Weekly Standard
