註釋"This dissertation explores the intersection between American liberalism, deindustrialization, and public policy through an analytical narrative of the Area Redevelopment Administration (ARA). Lasting from 1961 to 1965, the ARA provided federal assistance to community development groups in labor markets affected by deindustrialization and those in rural areas and Native American reservations. The dissertation examines the political context in which federal redevelopment policy emerged, particularly the New Deal and post Second World War efforts at creating a full-employment economy. This work also explores the economic and social changes resulting from deindustrialization and underemployment at the local and state levels, and how federal policy developed out of these efforts. It accomplishes these two tasks by connecting the national policy narrative to the subnational narratives of four areas the ARA sought to help: smaller urban areas of Pennsylvania, the inner city of Cleveland, rural areas in the South, and Native American communities
