U.S. Dept. of Health, Education and Welfare: 1968 "This paper emerges from concern with the fact that millions of people live out their lives under circumstances which place serious obstacles in the way to attaining the goals of physical health, personal fulfillment, and social accomplishment. Systematic recognition of this fact, and of the responsibility which it must take in relation to it, has come only recently to behavorial science. Because of the recent of such attention, there is available neither a broadly-shared conceptual perspective on the meaning and nature of deprivation, nor a well-established and comprehensive base of empirical knowledge about its consequences. The 15 papers contributed to our TASK force provide evidence for this state of affairs. They summarize for us what is known in a number of different areas relevant to the Task Force concern; these summaries will constitute the main portion of this paper. At the same time, these papers make clear how large are the gaps in present knowledge, how urgent is the need for vigorous pursuit of additional knowledge, and how little conceptual understanding has yet been achieved."

Widespread use of National Guard troops demonstrated that the American municipal police, though increasingly skilled at riot control, are not basically designed as a military force to suppress armed disorder. The summer's events futher demonstrate that effective police work of a more routine nature can be severely hampered when the police become the focus of major social conflict. With the cry of "black power" being countered by talk of a rising "white backlash" the role of the police becomes ever more difficult. A new willingness to study police problems and organizations should enable sociologists to improve their understanding of social order and social change. It should also enable them to contribute in some measure to the solution of the difficult problems that will continue to confront American communiteis and their police." FINE HARDCOVER.. Hard Cover.
