Review # 1 was written on 2019-03-31 00:00:00 Patricia Ziebart Jennifer Klein analyzes the events and decisions that have led to our current welfare and health care system. Klein argues that our current system is a public-private hybrid. To demonstrate this Klein begins with an analysis of group insurance before moving on to an in-depth discussion of welfare capitalism’s response to the Great Depression and Social Security. These chapters are crucial because they illustrate the ways in which movements emerged in response to the Depression that challenged welfare capitalism as well as the maneuvering of welfare capitalists and insurers that allowed them to rebrand themselves and notions of “security” in the face of greater state intervention. Klein’s later chapters call attention to the various “welfare experiments” of reformers, policy makers, and unions during the New Deal. These efforts were later supplanted by the federal government which took on a greater role in the World War II years only to dial back in the post war years in favor of collective bargaining with employers. For All These Rights becomes increasingly dense with each chapter; however, the books central argument remains salient.
