Publisher's Note
The Affordable Health Care for America Act just signed into law by President Obama is the most important piece of American social policy legislation in over four decades. It is a dramatic expansion of the welfare state, and completes a progressive project--expanding health care coverage to all Americans--that lasted three quarters of a century. Moreover, it will significantly redistribute wealth downward to poorer Americans--another goal of progressives after three decades of increasing income inequality.

What were the origins of the health care reform bill, how did it pass, and what does it mean for Americans? In Health Care Reform and American Politics: What Everyone Needs to Know, two of America's leading social scientists on politics, health care policy, and the American state--Theda Skocpol and Larry Jacobs--provide a concise and accessible overview of all the topic's aspects. They also explain how it will go into effect, and consider the possibilities of its repeal. They argue that since the individual components of the bill enjoy a majority of popular support, the likelihood of repeal is low. They also address the legislation's likely impact on other issues like income inequality and the economy.
