Abstract
The theme of this volume, “The Social Construction of Democracy” and the theme of this section, “The Welfare State and Democratic Practice,” are particularly applicable to the United States. For here major changes have taken place in the last half century in both participation in decision-making and the consequences of those decisions. These changes are particularly identifiable if one emphasizes the transforming years of the Second World War rather than the Great Depression. New Deal America belongs to a previous period of historical evolution and the war and the decade of the 1940s sets the nation’s public affairs off in a new direction.
