Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the complex relationship between national social agencies and their local branches in fourteen American communities during the 1920s. It delves into the historical context of a rapidly expanding social work field, marked by the emergence of numerous national organizations seeking to address social issues and establish a presence across the country. The author examines the different forms of control and influence national agencies exerted over local branches, highlighting the delicate balance between national leadership and local autonomy. The book explores the growing trend towards a general community attitude toward national agencies as a collective entity, shaped by factors such as the increasing number of national organizations, the consolidation of funds through community chests, and the overlapping roles of individuals serving on multiple local boards. The book also analyzes the challenges and tensions that arose from this interaction, including local concerns about the proliferation of national organizations and their perceived tendency to prioritize their own agendas over broader community interests. This groundbreaking study offers a unique insight into the early development of social work in the United States, revealing the dynamic and often complex relationships that shaped its evolution.
