Summary
  1. Monograph examining the applicability of the culture-of-poverty hypothesis to the specific labour force participation of poor men in the USA - based on the census of 1960 and a national level survey of 1966, analyses data with respect to age, race, (esp. Blacks) marital status and educational level, etc., includes a psychological model to test attitudes of the poor towards work, and concludes that responsibility for poverty rests with labour market structure rather than with the individual.
